Overall, Timenauts is fun, whacky and easy to get into. The story primarily serves to make the characters zany, but it’s novel. If you’re looking for robust, varied gameplay, however, it may not be the tonic for you. But if you’re in need of a chortle or perhaps an embarrassingly-high-pitched giggle, DeNA’s Timenauts is what you are looking for.

Critic reviews
- 7.6Timenauts Dena is mildly addictive. The gameplay mechanics are well thought out and there's plenty of customization options and variety to keep the player coming back for more. There's a reasonable level of challenge for those looking for something a little bit more difficult than the standard tower defense game. The PVP element makes for good replayability. Chapter two is almost impossible to beat. The extreme difficulty may turn some players off. You can't switch between characters when using coinage to level them up.
- 6.0But despite Timenauts being colorful, character-rich, and at times funny, it’s bland as far as gameplay. It’s not that much fun to keep spawning new units and hoping you can get more built before enemies destroy your Vessel. There’s barely a narrative to care about either, and there are a lot of games I’d rather spend time and money on that aren’t parading a bunch of silly characters in front of me so I can summon them, pay more energy to summon more, and repeat the cycle until victory. The verdict? This isn’t as fluffy as DeNA would have you believe.
