Overview

Death by Game Show is a Tower Defense/RTS with a comedic twist inspired by the movie Idiocracy. In the 26th century, humanity has become utterly and irreversibly stupid… more so. Only a lovable tub of goo by the name of U.H. Wutt demonstrates an acceptable level of intelligence, but the droids and robots who now run the world don’t take kindly to U.H. Wutt’s non-moronitude. Because of it, U.H Wutt has been sentenced to Death by Game Show.

Death by Game Show has a lot of style, and is a pretty fun take on the tower defence formula. Learning and understanding its new rules, offers a lot of early challenge and enjoyment while teaching everything in a non-obtrusive manner. The problems come in that many things carry over from level to level with no way to get many of the necessary items back if they are lost, which makes some levels truly impossible to beat when the protagonist gets overran. However, as long as the buildings are not lost many levels are simply ploughed over. This extreme divergence is the most pressing issue of an overall decent title.

A lack of variety and a bit of polish on the mechanics leaves the game feeling less like a release and more like a well-made flash game you might find online. With a difficulty rating that shoots sky-high in relatively little time, this is a game that only the hardest of hardcore players will complete and enjoy to its full potential. Death by Game Show (Reviewed on Windows) Game is enjoyable, outweighing the issues there may be. A lack of variety and a bit of polish on the mechanics leaves the game feeling less like a release and more like a well-made flash game you might find online.

Death by Game Show is not an incompetently made game, but as a collection of design decisions the sum and its individual parts are annoying, disappointing or frustrating. It’s a difficult game that doesn’t allow or encourage creativity in solving its gameplay puzzles and its rewards are simply not gratifying enough to justify its repetitive nature.

Overall, its a competent strategy game that is bogged down by its immature humor and annoyances. I did not care if my character died, other than to just get through the game for the purpose of this review.

If you like tough games then this is for you, but fans of strategy or tower defence have much better options available to them.
