This game is very interesting. So dungeons and aliens is a game very similar to tower defense games in a way. The object of the game is to get the aliens all killed before they break the barrier(force field) around you and you lose. Some are small monsters and then harder levels with big bosses. It gets pretty difficult at times. There spells you can unlock that help you throughout the levels. There are 60 levels in total. You have this target that you have to move towards each alien you're wanting to target quickly enough to get them before it gets too overwhelming. It definitely takes some strategy to get through these levels. There's bombs placed around that you can utilize and these crystal barriers that it takes a minute for them to get through that slows them down. You get coins each level you beat that allows you to purchase spells and power ups. A downfall I found was that if you want enough spells to defeat a big boss, you have to redo levels over and over until you have enough. It would be nice if you got enough coins at the end of certain levels to beat the bosses.I enjoyed this game even though it's not really my style of game. I didn't love it but I definitely think it's okay. It is only 1 player. Definitely more suited for adults and maybe older children. It takes too much strategy for younger children to figure out. The music worked well for each level.

Pros: Challenging

Cons: They need more coins for certain levels

Overall Rating: I give this a 6.5. It's not really my style of game but can be fun for people that like challenging defense style games. Not too bad.
