    A Brief Review of Desktop Defender I really wanted to like Desktop Defender. There is a good idle game buried in here, but it desperately needs a quality-of-life pass. The biggest problem is repetitive input. Buying multiple upgrades requires holding Shift and clicking, every time. There is no persistent toggle and, incredibly, no “buy all” option. Ascension and rebirth therefore mean rebuilding everything through…

    I haven't played this game much but for what I have played so far it really is great at its job. I use it for when I do my online revision and homework and it just gives me that extra bit of stimulation which keeps me locked in for longer.
