No.
Unless you want easy achievements, it's not worth it to play this game.

If there is one thing to say about the game, it's that the background is superb. I don't know how the developer did it, or whether they just bought an asset pack, but I'm impressed with the look. The same can't be said for the animation, though. It looks cheap and not realistic.

The same also applies to the rest. The HUD is ugly; it's basically just some squares strapped in the screen, without any effort to make it pretty. Enemies' animation is weird even though they were walking. There isn't even a clear indication of whether a level starts or ends.

There is no option to show a subtitle. Luckily, the voice is quite clear so I can make out a bit of what the game is saying. The story is quite straightforward; it tells about an alien race that tries to invade the Earth and how you have to beat it. It's basically just there to make the levels make sense.

Gameplay
As I said before, there isn't any clear indication of whether the game was starting or ending. It starts with a narrator telling the story, and suddenly some soldiers are running from left to right. I didn't know that the level had already started; I only knew that I had died after I went through everything again. The game will freeze slightly after you get the game over and the narrator will speak again, indicating the level restart. The worst thing is, you can't skip the talk.

The game doesn't work on a 144Hz monitor. My monitor is set to 144Hz by default and I was confused as to why I couldn't shoot the enemies. I can change the weapon mode, but most of my shots don't seem to go through. I died a lot of times until I realized that I had to change my monitor refresh rate to 60Hz. The game works well after that.

It's basically an auto-clicker game. You need to click on everything that has a health point, which can be known after you shoot at it, or wait until the cursor changes its color to red. Clicking everything can be tough for your mouse, but luckily, the game has a built-in auto clicker in the game. Just change the weapon mode to auto and it will shoot automatically without you having to click - you just need to hover your mouse to the enemy and it will shoot on its own. However, the game doesn't seem to remember this option; you need to switch it manually after you move to a new level, and there isn't any auto clicker in the last level. Luckily, there is only one enemy there so my mouse is safe. Hopefully.

There is no challenge. You might have a health point, but it's not like you'll lose if you know what you're doing. The health system is like a tower defense game, in a way that your health will only be depleted if the enemy goes to your base. I don't know what the base is from level 2 onwards, but I still managed to finish the whole thing without worrying about it.

Length and Difficulty
Despite all my issues, I managed to finish the whole thing in 0.4h. The game is easy, you just need to direct your mouse to the object that suddenly appears at most. It's played like an arcade shooter game where the view moves and new enemies will show up, except that you won't die as long as you know what you are doing. It's very easy to beat the game, and it's meant to be finished quickly.

PLANETS OF WAR is a game where you don't have to play. It's as if the only purpose of it is to farm achievements; there is no challenge or depth to it. The last level might be funny, but I don't even know what I played after finishing the game. I don't recommend playing it at all unless you want the easy and quick achievements.
