Impious Pumpkins is a real-time tactics game where you build and place a ghostly army to fend off attacking pumpkins across escalating levels. You purchase different unit types, position them on the map to fight autonomously, and progress through skill trees that unlock upgrades for each ghost class. Strategy comes down to unit selection and placement rather than direct control, with difficulty ramping significantly in later stages.

This is a cute fun tactics game that happens in real time. In it you purchase different units to place on the map and they go to work battling all by themselves. Strategy is about unit choice and placement which can get really fun once the difficulty ramps up.
As you progress you also have level up trees to go through for each of the unit types, adding more strategy choices.
This has a graphic style that I absolutely love. The cute spooky theme is one of my favorites and they have done a great job with the look of levels and characters.
For the price I definitely recommend picking up, It's a great game to have in your library to play a round or two on breaks and for some spooky fun!
I honestly don't believe the game is worth 4.49 or 4.99 for that matter in its current state. Most of your time is building your army and just basically waiting until you go to the next level. The final level you have to use healer towers to secure your zones, but I literally got through 95 percent of the game spamming ranger tower upgrades until the last level. The achievements also seem like time burners instead of something that tests your game play/knowledge. Granted I'm Drunk, but I beat the game and I feel like it was a good concept, but executed poorly with balancing.
Just finished it! Lovely little game - Good music, nice graphics and light gameplay. Reminds me some old custom defense map from warcraft 3. It starts easy, but gets harder as the game progresses: you'll feel the difficulty during third world levels.
There's a skill tree, for better efficiency, you gotta focus on one ghost type. I've maxed melee ghosts and then switched to ranged ghosts and spent the rest of skill points on medic. Game puts pumpkins randomly and that can make things crazier. If you have a rough start, better restart level.
My only critics is pointed towards balance. It's Ok, but really could use some tweaking. Mages are expensive and they aren't making any difference late game, although if you manage to spam them they will obliterate whole battlefield.
It's quite challenging, but i sure had fun playing this. No bugs encountered. Definitely worth its price.
Small tutorial update regarding how orange orbs drop and a reminder that you can click on orbs with the right click to prevent spawning an unit instead.
