This game is a fantastic twist on a simple idea. Unit summoning games, which have similar formats to tower defenses, can often be uninspiring, but Bardbarian steps out in front and slaps you in the face. With its pleasing graphic style, unusual twist on a classic hero plot and simplicity of adjusting to game style, Bardbarian is a must have game. Play time can vary depending on how many achievements you want to pick up, but you can spend as little as five minutes on this game and still have a great time. Survival mode is challenging to even the most hardened player and the Escape style mode is a great way to earn yourself some extra gold while actually testing your reflexes and mental sharpness.

I wholly recommend this game to everyone and anyone, but especially those that enjoy the format of summoning or tower defence games. You may come away with finger cramp, but you won't regret it.
