What genre is the game? It is a mixture of Tower Defense, RPG & RTS with some shoot’em’up and Snake elements. What's Gameplay like? Move Brad around the battlefield and dodge incoming enemy attacks and projectiles. Brad is constantly playing his axe-lute and generating notes, standing still will cause him to "jam" and generate notes even faster. These notes act as your in-game resource; you can spend them to perform solos to summon units to follow and fight for you, as well as solos to boost their performance. Navigate your party through the hordes of enemies, dodging and attacking, preventing them from destroying your town's prized decorative crystal. Survive waves to progress, collect loot, and unlock new units. Upon death you are able to visit the town shop in order to upgrade Brad, the town and your followers, in hopes to make it further next time.

My first game finished on the Steam Deck. I have no memory of receiving Bardbarian but it was verified on the Deck. It played really well.

It's a tower defense, but you are able to move around to avoid bullets. You don't directly attack; instead, you build a team and buff them as a bard. There's normal and insane difficulty plus two extra modes for rewards. It's fast paced and easy to learn. You want to earn gold, spend your gold in shop, and then jump back in! It can get repetitive and grindy to unlock everything from the shop.

i mean. it's fun i guess? but it's kinda boring after a while. thats kinda the most i can say about it
