Last Defense Boardgame - Critical Review and Discussion (4k)

Another game by Prospero Hall and Funko -- is it a hit or a miss?

I agree with your points- it's easy to learn, quick, limited "tension" and I wish it had a truly advanced mode. However, I still enjoyed it. I think if you have the right friends and the right atmosphere, it can be super fun. Thanks guys!

I completely agree that the game is too easy. I don't know why the app doesn't have a harder option that uses all the threats and spawns them sooner.
That being said my son (6) does like it. He doesn't love it but he likes it. And while he does play many more interesting games with my wife and I, last defense is something he could play with just kids (except I don't like the idea of leaving my phone with a bunch of kids)
I do love the theme. I really want Funko to make a good Mars Attacks co-op game for gamers.

Like Greg, I assumed this was a tower defense game. Shame it is bad. Some parents will choose this over Horrified based on the cover. Those kids may never become gamers.
