About This Game Welcome to Unholy Heights, a mashup of Tower Defense and Apartment Management Simulation! The Devil has converted a tenement building into monsters-only housing, and has big plans for the future. Sucker monsters into moving into your building, charge them rent and keep them happy by buying them furniture.Unfortunately, heroes have caught wind of the Devil's plan, and will stop at nothing to wipe him out. Knock on residents' doors to call them to battle, trap heroes in devious pincer formations, and command your troops to victory. Monsters get jobs, fall in love, have children, and even skip out on their rent. Keep them happy or you might not have anyone to fight for you when heroes come knocking. But don't be too soft: there's always prospective baddies looking to move in, so kick out the freeloaders when the time is right! Being a landlord is a difficult job, but it can't be harder than running Hell...right?Every monster is different. Some are lazy. Some are strong. Some are perverts.Use an intuitive mouse-based control scheme to command your troops into battle.Encounter more than 20 different monster species, and take their money.Build a reputation with different monster families based on your performance and play style.Take on quests at your pace to unlock new monsters and furniture.Build a stronger army as residents have children far stronger than themselves.Get monsters in the mood for love with inappropriately shaped erotic cakes.Look on in horror as lovingly hand-drawn monsters and humans horribly slaughter each other over money. Monster occupations, hobbies and desires are all procedurally generated to keep you on your toes. 7aa9394dea Title: Unholy HeightsGenre: Indie, Simulation, StrategyDeveloper:Petit DepottoPublisher:AGM PLAYISMFranchise:PLAYISMRelease Date: 16 Aug, 2013 Unholy Heights Download No Password I lost two families to a single boss. It left me in tears 10/10.. What did you honestly expect? Let's get the good stuff out of the way. It has some fun music, but it kinda gets old when there's only one track playing all throughout the game. It's got a delightful aesthetic. It's also fun in short bursts, and is a fun, simple game.Now...It's a tad too simple. And the combat relies on your creatures actually being there, which sometimes they are not, and you're just screwed. And it doesn't even tell you in anyway that they are out or not unless you look into the rooms, which is incredibly inconvenient. Not to mention I think it's impossible when an attack is happening. So, click away and hope they are there. There is a bit of micro managing you can do whilst in combat, but not incredibly so. You can't go full Star Craft, kiting your foes to death without taking any damage. Also, the pacing just seems a bit off. I'm not sure what it is about it. Could be the health regen is incredibly slow, basically meaning you just have to sit there waiting before taking quests...doing nothing... I'm not too sureIt is fun. I certainly don't hate the game, and I don't....neccesarily regret the purchase, but this would be MUCH more at home on a mobile device where you don't have to sit through it for long periods of time.. Well to start off, I wanna say some nice things about Unholy Heights.The art and presentation is great. Very charming characters and pleasant, chirpy music make for a good first impression to the game. It's also a reasonable price point considering how many hours you can get out of it, but with that said I want to list why I'm not that impressed with Unholy Heights.The actual gameplay is painfully repetitive, tower defense aspect of the game is VERY casual and one-dimensional and the management aspect is extremely boring after you do it for a couple hours. I like the quirkiness of the monsters but not so much that I wanna buy the same few things over and over each time I get a new tenant of that type. Maybe I'm just not that big a fan of simulation/management gameplay but I also think it feels kinda tacked on, as if it were to pad the length or give you something to do during downtime between quests. As much as I enjoy the presentation of Unholy Heights, I don't find the gameplay engaging or fun in any meaningful way. It's very casual, so if that's all you want and you really like what you see, you'll probably love it. I know there's a fair bit more content than what I got out of it, but nothing that will change how mundane and repetitive each quest is. I think that's another thing about the "hotel management" aspect of it, you're stuck to this one setting and battles happen almost the exact same way each time. Most great tower defense games have ever-changing levels and progression system/unlocks. Unholy Heights just has "buy this ice-cream a fridge, buy this devil a heater". It wears pretty thin after a while.. I never thought I could get so emotional about the life of a skeleton family.. PSA: Fighting next to the stairs is almost always a bad idea. RIP; Everyone who was home from work during that last adventurer raid. But seriously, tactics are a huge part of this game. If you're dying a lot, pay attention to resistences. If the adventuers you're going up against are mostly mages, then make sure that a monster with high magic resist is leading the charge. Make use of pincher manuevers and save empty slots in your apartments for healing items so that you can get your heavy hitters back in the fight quickly. Don't forget to adjust your rent according to how upgraded your apartments are. If your favorite monster is falling behind on his rent, set it to $0 until he manages to catch up again. Don't let him build up a huge debt or he'll just skip town without paying and then you'll lose both the money and the monster. If you have deadbeat monsters who frequently fail to pay their rent but are essential to your defense then just resign yourself to not collecting any income from them. It's not worth the risk in the long run and your other monsters should more than make up the difference as long as you're frequently doing quests.. First game to allow you to track the masturbation schedule of sentient flowers, winner of Most Innovative Game of 2013.. If you have the patience to stare at your screen for at least an hour and grind for gold to make your residents happy, who you will eventually kick out for being late on their rent, then this is the game for you. However, I am not one of those people and wouldn't recommend buying this game.. An apartment management tower-defense game about your resident monsters against humans. While the idea of being a landlord is enticing the tower-defense part can get incredibly tedious & repetitious since there's not a whole lot of strategy to use here from beginning to end.The idea of the tower-defense is just to stop humans from stealing your money and if they get away with it you only lose your highly expendable tenant should they have died defending the money taken so there's no real fail state. You try and stop the humans by knocking on the room doors of the monsters of your choosing and IF they're home (which most usually are) they'll do their tower-defense thing and help kill the intruders. As you get further into the game you're able to invite specific higher tier monsters depending on what monster race you've been appealing to or otherwise. To get further into the game & earn faster money though you've got to go do quests from a quest board. While every quest grants you money there are quests that unlock new monsters for you to be able to have in your apartment, quests that unlock a new piece of furniture you can buy for your tenants, and main quests that finally allow you to expand your apartment one floor at a time. The downside to this though is that every quest from side to important are essentially all the same "stop the humans" only with varying wave numbers and a few human types with soon to be higher stats. Whatever strategy you had against weaker humans you can do the exact same thing against the stronger humans with stronger monsters in somewhat bigger numbers because the monsters you get aren't entirely different either aside from the stats when it comes to being useful in defending.The landlord simulator part is at least more intriguing. The job is primarily housing interested monsters of your choosing and appealing to their tastes by adding or improving things in their apartment, sometimes specifically when needed as some monsters prefer having certain items in the room depending on their race and/or job. It's a bit more taxing to house monsters when you have a certain race that's disliked by another race living in the same structure. You can still appeal to both but getting them to all be satisfied in their living quarters would take much longer.There's a maximum of 3 vacancies per room where each vacancy specifically houses one tenant, that tenant's lover, and those two's child. So long as one tenant in a room is satisfied and alive they'll eventually find a lover and conceive a child who will also grow up for you to take money from. If the child dies another child will be conceived by the parents. If a parent dies the other parent will find another lover. If both parents die then the grown-up spawn will eventually find a lover of their own and eventually conceive their own child. I'm not sure what happens if both parents die while the child remains a child. As all the tenants in one room are old enough they usually find jobs of their own which is supposed to be a good incentive for raising their rent.The room upgrading is incredibly bare & simple which leads to a few questionable things. For example upgrading a two-door fridge apparently grants the room a BBQ set and upgrading that gets it a built-in kitchen. You can buy a tenant a game console and/or a PC tower for their room but I find it a bit odd that you're not exactly buying it for them but for the room itself, and you don't even have to buy them a television for the consoles as far as I've seen.Depending on how fancy a room is and what the current tenant's job is you can adjust rent to their's and your pleasing. Certain monsters though are less likely to even want to pay rent even if you set it to an incredible low. You can evict them for being deadbeats, wait a bit longer to see if they come up with the money, or wait for them to run away from paying you.The game itself sounds better off as an idle-game somewhat but unfortunately alt + tabbing even when the game's a small window pauses the entire thing. It was pretty nice trying to be a landlord for monsters but with how tediously bland progress is I can't entirely like the game even for its cheap price.. its a cute game, but cute only gets you so far. the game is repetitive and doesn't get more interesting later on, you will still be doing the same thing you did in the first 5 minutes 7 hours later. clicker games are more dynamic than this, and calling this a tower defence game is an insult.
