Dinsun Review
I wanted to like this. The idea of a pig with a crossbow fighting monsters is funny for about ten minutes. But 'Bacon's Revenge' is the poster child for 'pay-to-win' garbage. The gameplay itself is fine—standard tower defense stuff—but the 'weapon prayer' system is a joke. It claims to be random, but it’s clearly designed to withhold the items you actually need to progress unless you start pumping real money into gems.
You hit a wall around level 20 where the difficulty curve becomes a vertical line. You can grind for days to pass one level, or you can pay five dollars. That’s not game design; it’s an extortion racket. It’s a shame, because the animations are decent and the core loop has potential, but as a gamer who values fairness, I can't stand this. It’s greedy, exploitative, and frankly, a waste of storage space. If you value your wallet, stay far away from this one.
