"Extremely addictive, very well-done game!"

It's hard to complain considering how hooked on this game I was. I loved the New Game + option, the variety of attacks and non-linear powerup system. Huge variety of enemies as well... executed brilliantly!
Like some others, my only big gripe is the knights. I wished that either they were a little easier to fool, harder for them to hit you, or that the cursor remained inactive a little less longer. When the screen is hectic if you get anywhere near the nights they render you helpless and sometimes a villager can appear and escape before you even have a real chance to grab them.
I -did- finally beat the last level with a pretty cheap strategy. After getting all of the buildings out of the way, I used Euthanasia on villagers I could one-hit and that had a potential to escape. I avoided knights and supermen completely until they were the only enemies on-screen and no other villagers would spawn. I'd get the knights grouped together, swing the cursor right by their face and get them all vulnerable... then I'd trap them all together and off they went. Repeat as necessary. It was so nice to be able to finish the game! Very challenging!
