About
Upgrade your ship, fortify your defences and ready your weapons, because you’re going to need all the help you can get!
Armed to the teeth and set on sheer destruction, waves of enemy drones are rushing towards the mothership, Antares. You must strategically build your defences in the best possible locations as you take direct control of your Hammerhead defence craft equipped with the deadliest weapons such as; the multi-targeting Tesla Coil, the helium plasma Combustor or the devastating Decimator.
In 1935, Albert Einstein and Nathan Rosen predicted the existence of wormholes; shortcuts through space-time enabling instantaneous travel across vast regions of space. A century later, a discovery was made that turned their theory into reality - plunging mankind into an interstellar space race to claim the ultimate prize: the Voidshards.
The events of Excubitor are set in the year 2182, in a remote star system colonized by humans. At its heart is the Baphomet - a vast ‘hyper-giant’, a star over a thousand times larger than our own sun and one of the biggest stars known to humanity. Dozens, maybe even hundreds of planets orbit the giant star, with many more swallowed up as Baphomet grew larger during its stellar evolution. All around the system, a strange and powerful element is scattered across the many worlds. An element that could provide humanity with all the energy it will ever need. An element that takes the form of blue crystals known as the Voidshards.

Product received for free Gameplay At Excubitor, you control a small Spaceship In a Kind of TopDown View and you have to perform various Tasks.
Ziehl is able to defend a large Ship in most missions and depending on the Mission, other Tasks are added, such as activating certain object/buildings or defending other Defensive Objects.
The Game is very Active and is a Mix of Action TopDown Space shooter and Tower Defense.
In Total, there are 4 Planets with 4 Missions each, with the last Mission always being a Boss opponent.
On the Mission Map you will find different Building Points on which you can build defense towers as in Tower Defense games which help you survive in the Level, but these are not strong enough to contest the Level alone and you have to be active in the Fight Intervention. After each Mission, you get Upgrade points that can improve your Spacecraft by, for example, Reinforcing the Weapon system, the Shields, the Armor or the Propulsion System. In Addition, while Playing a Level, you get energy which you can use to buy better Weapons and improve them in turn, which are also needed to build the Defensive Towers.
Difficulty The Level of difficulty is already set to normal And is more suitable for experienced players, but casual Gamers also get along after some Time, But probably have to Play some Missions several times until they manage them.
Boss Fights The Boss Fights are very interesting. None of the Bosses can defeat with pure Weapon power, with each one you have to analyze the Vulnerabilities beforehand and find out how they can be defeated in the first place. Whether it's certain sore Puntke, Shields that need to be switched off first, or you need certain Weapon systems of the Map. Each Boss is unique and needs to be done in a different Way.
Positives-Action-packed-Many Turmarts-Many of the Ship's Upgrade options with Points or different Weapon types-16 Levels-Innovative boss fights-Beautiful Graphic Neutral-Steam Collectible Cards-Steam Achievements-Leaderboards-Controll Support
Negative-Price for a 10h game time for the first time to play normally but Set High-difficulty level not Casual suitable-Sometimes a Bit cluttered as there is no indication how far the current Wave is and there Are waves that last 1 min or also Which last the 10 min and you never know when the next Wave will finally start and you have survived the current conclusion An Action-packed Fast TopDown space shooter/Tower Defense Mix that can really show itself. Those who Enjoy Tactically fighting spaceship Masses with Turret and Spaceship in Space should not miss this Game.
