I've had a lot of fun slowly working through Tiny Tactics as a side game over the last couple of weeks. I've been recovering from a surgery, and it's been really nice to have a game that makes me think for a bit in small bursts and then watch things play out. The mix of autochess and tower defense really hits a sweet spot for me.

The tension of mazing and trying to maximize the number of autochess 'tribe' bonuses ends up leading to tough questions like "Is it worth shortening my maze by 2 tiles so I can fit in 2 more Spartans? Can I shorten a maze in a way which doesn't reduce the number of tiles my top damage dealers threaten?"

Not in the mood to do a full review, but it definitely gets my recommendation for fans of either genre.
