Hi everyone,

I am looking for playtesting help for a game that has been made as part of a university project. We need you to play this game in its entirety and answer a survey afterwards - but of course we wouldn't ask this of you without giving something back, so anyone who finishes the game and the survey will get links to 25+ game giveaways (the games are listed further down).

The game is a turn based strategy game, where you need to defeat an enemy on 5 different islands and battle them in a combat board game setting. The game can take a good while to complete (possibly 1+ hours) so we appreciate your patience and your help a lot.

The game has been created for a singular purpose in our semester report, and has been made in a month, so you should expect some jank here and there, but game breaking stuff should be very very rare. If you experience any major issues you can ALT-F4 out and start from the last checkpoint, but please keep this as a last resort, as it can screw up some things.

Here is how you can get playing:
=== CLOSED FOR ENTRIES===

I will try to assist with technical issues, but i can't say much about the game such as tips, since that would void the test - and i will try to answer as fast as i can.

The fabulous games you can get a chance to win (for every 10 participants on the survey i will add 1 more game to the list)

Survey done.
Suggestion: You shouldn't let stone block near tower. Or one with stone cannot be beaten, I haven't seen AI use this tactic, but if you plan to add pvp later, this will be a problem.

btw, although the last battle tag with Hard, but it's actually the easiest and fastest one :P

Thanks for helping out :) and thanks for the suggestion, but we won't work more on the game as such. This was created for our university project and was meant as a learning experience in game development.

Also Just want to ask what the point of the survey was-going over all the mechanics of the game in great detail...shouldn't anyone who played the game know all of that stuff making it redundant?

Indeed they should ;) - that is one aspect of the test premise for our report.

I had a bug with monsters in my inventory. They stopped in some random place while trying to drag them. Because of this I couldn't change my monster in 3rd slot for the rest of the game. I don't know how to reproduce it but wanted to inform about it anyway.

Sorry if my answers aren't understandable, it's because english isn't my mother language.
