Treasure Hunt review!

### Aesthetics: 6 / 10

Neat green on black pixel art, though pretty basic.

### Originality: 2 / 10

Just a normal defense game.

### Challenge: 9 / 10

It has a nice progression from easy to hard, but there could be more skills involved.

### Fun factor: 7 / 10

I had a pretty fun time, but it's not super exciting.

### Content: 9 / 10

20 waves, a bunch of different enemy types, and lots of upgrades.

### Total: 33 / 50

(The Treasure Hunt review score is different from the standard Newgrounds review score because it uses different criteria.)

Success!

nice win with no upgrade very hard :O

Thought for my first few playthroughs that I had to hold down the mouse button to attack. When I found out I could click, and that I could attack faster - it was all over. Nice game! I enjoyed the variety of upgrades and the difficulty curve, though steep, was lovely.

Good game
