The verdict
The best few dollars you can spend in the genre right now: a cozy, gorgeous pixel-art tower that grows on screen as your numbers do, tight pacing, and a real ending before it gets stale. Not deep — but it never pretends to be, and 97% positive across ~9,000 reviews says it doesn't need to be.
Hot take
Tower Wizard proves the genre's dirty secret: most incrementals would be better games if they ended at hour eight instead of padding to hour eight hundred.
