The premise, in the publisher's words
A super frantic Arcade Tower Defense, McDROID starts gently then progressively challenges your trigger finger and your wits (and your sanity) as you multitask like a robotic-spider-doggy-thing: running, shooting, building base, herding, healing, harvesting, repairing, planting, upgrading, researching, frying giant snail-hammer-thing with a giant-tesla-on-your-back (it actually happens).
How it plays
Its themes are action. It is a single-player game with no multiplayer component. Available modes: Co-operative, Multiplayer and Single player.

McDroid holds a critic score of 50 out of 100. That places it above 6% of the 5,098 rated indie games in our database, which average 72. Games released in 2014 averaged 69, so it scored 19 points below the year average.
What it launched against
McDroid launched on 5 August 2014, within three weeks of The Last of Us Remastered, Metro 2033 Redux, Metro: Last Light Redux and Metro Redux. All of them reviewed better. It arrived 1 year into the PlayStation 4's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: The Last of Us Remastered, Metro 2033 Redux, Metro: Last Light Redux, Metro Redux.
