really enjoyed this. i disagree with reviewers who say there's no strategy, but i do think this game has a low level of entry that conceals how hard it gets at its version of "ascensions" -- so that indicates a balance problem i think. i do really like that "monster train's" approach is more maximalist. you know you will upgrade everything, and dramatically; so how will you use that? where will your build get huge? it's a lot of fun, to me.
