The biggest surprise for me was the replayability this little game has to offer while it does not feature any rogue-like/lite elements!

Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
The developers put a lot of love and care into this game - the graphics and characters are cute and cartoony, the pickups are all useful and fun (I like how as you pick up items they chain behind you and you can only use the first in the cue, it adds a lot of strategy), the game rewards you with neat skins for the characters and backgrounds and new music, the towers and golden poohs that slow down enemies keep things interesting, and the enemies are varied and require different strategies - it just shows that focused efforts like this can be so much more fun than big 60$ games that try to stuff in everything and appeal to everyone.

The sound effects and the music are great and complete the scaling intensity of the game!
