Homeworld Defense is a basic clicker game guised as tower defense. I just cannot recommend it to those who are looking for a strategic defense game. The game requires a lot of clicking for collecting materials for buying upgrades/unlocking new levels. It focuses so much on collecting that each level must be replayed multiple times to unlock the next level, which inflates the overall game time in a bad way.

There is a separate element collected for purchasing/placing units within the same small area of the map during play, but there’s not much thought involved in doing so as it really comes down to placing the same units over and over. Many of the levels either limit the building of units or completely removes them altogether (requiring the player to click kill the enemies).

The game was built using UE4 and has some nice explosions; however, the camera angel/control is so bad that most of the time the game is so zoomed out that it’s hard to even see it. If you enjoy casual clicker games than this may fun for a few minutes if you can get it at a high discount.
