![]() Towers can only be built in certain spaces, and putting them on higher ground increases their range. Either way, enemies approach along specific routes. The goal in sea levels is to prevent enemy ships from moving off-screen. ![]() On the land maps, you have a specific base that must be defended. Version reviewed by Arcadelife is 1.Maps come in two varieties: land and sea-based. I know I said that it wouldn’t change your mind if you really hate TD games, but maybe you should give it a try anyway it could be the one to do it…įinal rating – 92/100 Rating categories explained here. Overall, an excellent, epic TD game that no genre fan should miss out on. I was surprised when I wasn’t totally annihilated by stupidly powerful enemy units, but that’s because there aren’t any stupidly powerful enemy units! Subtle tactical options, such as placing comms towers near other defences to improve their effectiveness, add a lot to the gameplay allowing victory points to be reallocated any time you replay a previous mission is another example of the player friendly nature of the game. I got a long way through on ‘Easy’ (purely for review purposes, honest), then I went back and started the missions on ‘Veteran’ (the hardest setting). The more I play it, the more I find to enjoy in this game. Experimentation can occasionally lead to disaster, but there’s a rewind button (with a 3 wave cooldown) that can be used if one of your monumental strategic cock-ups completely messes up your chances of a perfect base defence run or completing a tricky secondary objective. The real victory here isn’t the almost perfect blend of fantastic graphics, spectacular effects and immensely satisfying weapons, but the way the game has been carefully structured to avoid player frustration and any feeling that the maps and units are weighted in either side’s favour. At times, I genuinely felt a bit uneasy watching my flamethrowers spraying molten death into the lines of slowly marching enemy troops, but maybe that’s a good sign that I’m still not utterly desensitised after playing video games pretty much every day since 1980.Īrcadelife verdict: Yes, it’s “another TD game”, but it’s an excellent one. The bad news: Oh, I don’t know, not a lot. You can play the game as much as you like on ‘Easy’ and then swap to ‘Veteran’ once you’re earned a couple of perks, go back and slaughter the early levels with your new skills – that’s not cheating, that’s called having fun with a video game. Cool weapons and upgrades good perk system with choices that can be altered for every map. Great mixture of land, sea and air attacks, often mixed up on the same map. Graphics and effects are very, very good. The good news: It isn’t frustrating! Incredible, I know, but this is possibly even more fun than Kingdom Rush, my previous favourite iOS TD game.
