Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
The buildings you have access to will depend on your store level, but will also depend on which race and which commander you are playing as (I'll cover that more in progression).

Each run feels like a self-contained story of adaptation and ambition, with every defeat feeding directly into the excitement of the next attempt.

PRO's: Pixel graphics, simple, easy to learn, synergies, good-RNG (got a building that summons a random unit: I summoned a giant basalt dragon half the size of the enemy castle XD).
