Ash & Adam’s Existential Treads Steam Review

Ash & Adam’s Existential Treads was sent my way by the people over at Game Taste. I always appreciate working with new people and companies.

To start, I don’t truly know how to explain this game. You start by building a small settlement, then building towers to defend it. You do this in a sort of post-apocalyptic world filled with old buildings. This is how you gather resources: you destroy these with your tank.

After they fall, your little helpers will run and grab parts to build new buildings, which can be used to upgrade things like your ammo or your defensive towers. Work fast because every so often, you will be attacked by waves of enemies. In between these waves, and while building your settlement, you will need to find the towers they come from so you can destroy those towers.

This is the game loop in a nutshell. Once you destroy all the towers, you are given a cannon to launch yourself to the next island. You can keep a helper permanently, which gives you a bonus to things like how fast your tank moves or how fast the first 6 people will move to collect things.

This is around the time I would tell you the graphics are nice, and it sounds good, which is all true. Then I would tell you the problems with the game. Then I ran into a problem. I couldn’t find any outside of one. The game is just a little too short. I’ve never given a perfect score, and I have only given out a handful of near-perfect scores. This is a 9/10 game. I can’t give you a single reason you won’t love this game, except I feel like they should have added a few more islands. Go pick this one up. Best wishes, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
