54 of 54 · most liked firstI have no idea where these positive reviews are coming from. If, like me, you find yourself watching the video and are thinking, "cool, I dig the aesthetic but what's the actual gameplay look like?" that's where you and I got confused. That is the gameplay. You're looking at it. You click on random rooms that appear and then you click on the monsters to shoot them. That's it. That's all there is. Maybe this would be interesting on a phone? Well, "interesting" is maybe a bit generous, but, you…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Ok, the game seems cool, thanks to promotion video. BUT BUYERS BEWARE : so far this is just A MONEY GRAB 1. This is just a port from mobile game Dead Shell. And port made badly tbh. First time I experienced a game which was better to be left on a phone only. 2. Dev or Devs are silent. One post since release on forums. Obviously not reading topics made by community. 3. Bugs are not fixed, and there are plenty of them, including (but not limited to): Not working missions, wrongly applied…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Beware fake reviews. This game is a buggy port of a FREE game on the google play store called Dead Shell. The worst part? Dead Shell is even better than this version. Total ripoff. If I were being charitable, I'd say this thing is worth a dollar, but not if they're going to be shady like this. I'm getting my money back asap.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →No. No. No. No. No. Seriously how many phantom steam accounts posted positive reviews here? Contrary to Popular Belief it is possible to polish a turd until it turns into a diamond....or at least it looks like one. This title proves that point as it looks great but after you try it on and spend some time with it you'll quickly realize it still smells like the turd it is.... There's zero strategy to be found here. It LOOKS like it's got something going on because of the way it's presented…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's very slick and pretty but it's basically a tablet game, and not an especially good one at that. Get Knights of Pen & Paper instead.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a bad port from a free mobile game, with bugs that can compromise your in-game progresses; Devs choice of changing the name and then sell it here at such high price is kinda shady. Players will be left alone, without a tutorial or a real plot; you will have to guess many things; also you will not need any strategy or skill to end it. It's more luck based. Humor mentioned by Devs is poor and childish. More similar to a brainless clicker game than a rogue-like, Super Turbo Demon…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is not even a game. There is no strategy or tactics. You just click to win. There are different guns, classes and ammo, but it is all meaningless. It is so easy, an infant can play it. Stay away from this!
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A pretty simple and generic roguelike. All you do is click enemies: you deal damage to them, they do damage to you, when they die, they drop loot. But you can't even pick up a medkit to use later: you have to collect and use loot right away. Character progression is very limited, there're only a few various weapons (the only difference between those is damage), and the UI is confusing for such a simple game. Btw, this is a port of a mobile game, but there are much better mobile games with…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →free mobile game with a name change stay away.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Too limited in every regard. There is no variety, no depth, no progress.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Get Dead Shell on Android Honestly the game itself is pretty addicting, i just don't see why anyone would buy the version with less content. Dead shell, fits the "games as a service" model, it got updates and with them more content. while STD Busters gets 125 levels from whatever version they added on steam. The only thing extra you might want to check out of curiosity are the two endings, as opposed to the mobile endless mode. In any case both version work the same, a simplified rogue-lite…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →* Basic clicker game with no afk mechanics +there seem to be a story somwhere -too much of a grind if you like clickers then maybe try it, but it will take forever to win
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A very repetitive clicker and if you want all achievements you need to grind at least 30 hours.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Tool tips have you heard of them this repetitive clicker is a poor mobile game I can't understand all the postive reveiws
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Could have been so cool, with an actual skill tree, upgrades, or pretty much anything beyond just clicking. It seems really cool from the screen shots, but the game is pretty bad. You see everything within about 5 minutes of playing.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Vaguely compelling click 'em up with a very light touch of strategy. Basically, all you seem to do is click on monsters, click on loot and then click on upgrades. The classes seem minimally different and are more of an unlock goal than anything else. Graphics are serviceable, the sound good - apart from the music - and the gameplay loop passable. The game runs fine, but then it really doesn't do anything even vaguely ambitious. For £12 I would expect much more, frankly.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The store page says this is a rogue like, that is super deep with plenty of hero's and tons of weapons. To start, it's not a rogue like, it's a clicker. You click rooms, if there's an enemy you click it, you click to shoot it. That's predominately what you'll be doing. There is an upgrade system in that you can upgrade a characters health, damage for their main weapon type, and special ability, but it's all pretty simple. Hardly 'super deep'. As far as plenty of heroes, there's 7 total, but…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →One of the few clicker games that I like. If only the developers cared about their own game...
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →...40 minutes in and I still have no idea what's going on. Is this a game or am I just clicking on shiny objects?
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The store page for this game is flooded with obviously fake reviews. Nobody in their right mind considers this the "indie game of the year!" In reality, it's barely a game. It's just click, click, click. Or, really, since this is a cheap mobile port, it's tap, tap, tap. Nothing else to it.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Video Review: https://youtu.be/fOfAZ1zI-gM I don't exactly go either way. To me this one felt kinda boring and nothing new was introduced, perhaps a bit too mobile. I concur with the reviews that proclaim it's barley a game. There's not much strategy since it's far too random. However, I know there's an audience for this game. It's more casual mindless nature will draw a few people in that want something quick without too much depth. When in doubt though, I would play it safe and not pick it…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →this would be a good game if some things where fixed but do to bugs and flaws in the rpg elements i'm down voting this. + has some nice turnbased rpg like fights + you are forced to limit your gun fire or swap guns/characters do to limited ammo or just use the melee character when unlocked - this is a mobile port and that one seems to be the better version - no character balance. - you do not level characters from using them but seem to get a level for a random character every 4th areas done…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Meh game, really quick but without much depth, throws you into the world without any guide, I had to check the controls to see how this thing plays, and after a while I noticed you can open the inventory to change weapons... plus classes are really unbalanced, sniper hits hard but is very weak, shotgun guy wrecks pretty much everything, medic is almost unkillable, melee class doesn't care about anything, not even ammo, just kills anything on the way, Scout barely does damage at all, and dies…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Terrible waste of time. Looks good but it is a bad mobile port of simple game . Very repetive and there is not much tactics or anything interesting to do, your main goal is to grind and after 15 min you saw everything this game have to offer, there is not much more other than new characters and monsters but brainless gameplay stays the same. You can upgrade your character 3 skills, health, damage to a single type of weapon and some special unique skill, on top of that you can upgrade your…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is just a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ phone game. The preview and tags give the illusion that this is top-down turn based; thats not the case, you simply click. For everything. Big ugly phone UI aswell. I just can't muster up any respect for this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ 'game' especially because the base price is 12$. Stupid.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a fun game. I am aware there is a free mobile version - but this one is better than that one because it removes the pay-to-win mechanics, advertisements, and time-out locks. TImed mechanics have been replaced by turn-based mechanics. Instead of waiting X hours for your supply ship to return, you wait X number of turns. The PC version also adds a story and character banter, which gives the game a lot more personality. I got this game before I knew about the mobile version, and I…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Conceptually it seemed interesting, but the gameplay turned out dreary and far, FAR too repetitive.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Boring, repetitive and dare I say lazy. The gameplay consists of traversing several random science lab with only he semblance of a story to guide you. Everything can be done by clicking and there isn't any strategy outside of which weapon to equip in each character and who to shoot first. Also, you can only play with one hero at once. That's it. Do that for more 124 levels, take care of your heart metter that makes no sense, and brace for a mediocre ending. There isn't much of a soundtrack,…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →5/10 I'm going to say that I felt misled by the mostly positive reviews for this game. While this not a bad game at all, this is also a port of a free mobile game called Dead Shell. From that, I'm going to say that this doesn't mean that the game is bad - one of my favorite games is in fact a mobile game. The reason I'm saying this is that you can play this game for free on mobile. I'm sure this version of the game has some advantages over the free version, but all in all, there is not enough…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Planet Doom-4 was zombiefied by a viral outbreak and the only hope for your team is extraction by the orbital shuttle. You choose a mercenary for each mission to fight through randomly generated mazes until you find the exit. Now you have to consider your chances: disengaging versus fighting to get more loot while risking to die. If you clear a location of all enemies you'll get a chance of picking a supply crate containing mercenaries unlocks or level ups, weapons, ammo and credits. As…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I like it but the grind to get to 20K kills is going to take a long time.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Spent 2 bucks on it, got my moneys worth. might be complaining if I'd dropped 5+
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →First impressions are good, although it doesnt have the deepest combat mechanics and a lot of the progress seems to depend on luck. Its fun though and I can see myself visiting it again soon. There seems to be a kind of randomness to it, in terms of rewards and powerups, with highly differing levels of power, from stuff that makes little difference to stuff that makes ALL the difference - there are loads of weapons with many tailor made for some classes - which is a nice touch. Dont expect the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fair to say, it is a potential game. BUT it failed.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game has hardly any content and is extremely based on luck. I love rogue-like games, but this one did not keep me attached for long. It would be ok on a mobile phone, but for PC it is too simplistic. It is not worth to spend time on such small games. Score 4/10 pros: - rogue-like - pixel art cons: - no story - simplistic mechanics - not much content
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Hello everybody, End World Gaming here to share an excerpt from my review for Super Turbo Demon Busters by Herocraft. Super Turbo Demon Busters is a roguelike game that’s combined with a clicker game. You take control of a squad of mercenaries as they make their way through increasingly difficult levels to escape a monster infested planet. Your squad of characters includes the mercenary, commando, delta trooper, delta scout, scout, medic and sniper. Each character has their own unique weapon…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →funny rogue like game where you roam the rooms and kill enemies there - passing level by level, counting resources, choosing proper weapons, upgrading, shopping - pretty playable and extremely addictive game!

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →RECOMMENDED: HELL (click-click-click) YEAH!!! Firstly: The Music Score is absolutely awesome! I totally love 80's breeze synth music! Secondly: Best "Cookie" Clicker I ever played! (not quite a cookie clicker, but overall gameplay is basically what it is: click-click-click-click) Thirdly: Leveling Up System, Unlockable Characters, Loot Crates Fourthly: Post Generated Dungeons (means almost nothing in this game, but it is there) Fifthly: Absolutely FUN, even with the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →https://youtu.be/iaoKElnCu08 None of the single elements used in this odd mix of themes and mechanics is especially well done, but the combination is more than the sum of it's parts in an oddly compelling way.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Pros: + A rogue-like inspired by Doom and ALIEN that pokes fun at some of the tropes + Play through and collect marine, weapon, and demon cards to add variety to your session Cons: – Costly upgrade system over the more convenient level promotion from previous game – You may end up fighting uphill battles by the moment you enter a map – Poor exframe engineering ”Super Turbo Demon Busters!” may not have the conveniences from its predecessor, but there sure is some entertainment to be had here…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →a nice and simple rogue-like dungeon crawler. it deserves a chance!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →fun and very addictive roguelike game, already spent a couple of hours playing it and I'm not going to stop. Really enjoyed it. Well done Devs!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →So, it's turn-based pixel-art game. You have some mercenaries and your mission is to defeat different monsters in random-generated levels. You find weapons, ammo, you can upgrade your mercs. Looked easy at the beginning, but it's getting harder from level to level. And there's some story line. Good job!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →прикольный рогалик, где ты никогда не знаешь что ждет тебя в следующей комнате. очень затягивающая игра, хотя игровая механика кажется довольно простой, нужно тщательно продумывать, когда тратить паверапы, какое выбирать оружие, в каком порядке проходить комнаты. прекрасная пиксельная графика, хороший дизайн - стоит потраченных денег.

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good game,good music
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Super Turbo Demon Busters! is a frantic and unapologetically chaotic roguelite shooter from HeroLabs that leans fully into its low-fi, arcade-inspired energy. Rather than aiming for realism or heavy narrative, it embraces a tone of wild improvisation where you and your squad of misfit commandos are dropped—through bureaucratic incompetence—onto a hostile alien world crawling with demons, mutants, and hazardous environments. The game treats its premise with deliberate absurdity, using humor,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →"It's just bad". Look, this was a mobile game once. It was ported to PC. And not only is it STILL BROKEN AFTER YEARS (namely quest issues where the "fix" is to mess with your registry...) but it's also a terribly designed game. And you know what? I can tell you a SINGLE CHANGE that would have made a difference: in-game, when choosing what enemy group to tackle next, let us change which mercenary is going to be used. Because that's the only way to make use of the enemies' resistances and…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Sad to say but... the phone was was definitely better. How'd you manage to have a better story going but fumble the gameplay like this? ouch.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A bad grindy mobile port. enough said.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →One of the best Rouge-likes I have played, I wouldn't pick it up if you don't like Rouge-likes, Or slightly repetitive gameplay (Like all rouge-likes) The story is a little cheesy but if you can look past that it's quite enjoyable, This game has been bombarded with negative reviews with people complaining about the same little thing every time. But this game is quite fun if you just want to kill a small amount of time or just sit back and relax while playing for a bit of fun rather than playing…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Update: Devs left the game after 3 days. Don't buy. Holy balls. This game is pretty cool. You go from room to room killing creatures as the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Doom Guy, while trying to find the exit. This is probably the closest thing to a Doom Rogue-like we will get. Music is great, combat is done very well and is also a very interesting take. Well worth the price already!
