A mix between 2D platformer and tower defense, Aegis Defenders is a charming title with a pleasant universe and an engaging cast. The problem is the execution, which may leave some players in disarray: some sequences would have deserved more finishing, so that the difficulty curve could be softened. Nevertheless, the title remains particularly enjoyable, at least by its successful attempt at a mixture of genres. It remains an experience to be shared in cooperation, for a better appreciation of the title.

Aegis Defenders was one of the first games I played on my new PC. I got this game through a friend who had Humble Bundle, and I'm always eager to try different games. I really liked this but sometimes it was frustrating. I liked the art style, soundtrack and I thought the story was quite interesting.

I played this solo which is normally how I play games anyway so I didn't feel I was missing much playing co-op. Overall, I enjoyed playing the game and experiencing something different than what I would usually play.
