CANT PROVIDE a 5 STAR REVIEW yet although I like this game. My main issue is that, enemy vehicles have no stats. There is an encyclopedia for enemy vehicles but no details on the amount of HP, armor, strengths and weaknesses. All it provides is a narrative description of the enemy vehicle and nothing else. But nonetheless, I enjoy this game and went to purchase some to show some support.

1. Offline is a scam. You can't even go 1/10 of the game in offline mode. 2. Upgrades require watching videos which pay less. 3. Machines given can't harm some enemies at all. 4. Payments from kills is too small 5. If those were made clear, the game is good. I enjoyed the first chapter.

Upgrades system is top-notch. I like absolutely every part: grapchics, animations, setting, heroes, towers themself and the way world map looks, it's just a pure joy. Restricted energy is negative part, but else i would just die from dehydration. I suggest developer to consider porting this to Steam (PC). Oh, yes, give players a tip that anti-air tower needs time to wind up and shoot for the first time (when just constructed).

5star downgraded to 1. Seeiously, if I have to take a phone call mid game, it restarts the game, and you can't continue progress. Make it so I can continue progress after closing and re opening and I will give 5stars again Its rare I give this kind of review. Though your game is outstanding!!! It has the perfect balance of reward to play, along with the perfect insentives to watch an AD each round. Other designers should really follow your template. I hope to see many more games from you guys

Game has improved greatly, one of the best tower defense games available. I really like the new boats that attack, but defense system needs a sell option. Some levels are still unbeatable without cheats though, so I'd call it 4.75 stars, rounded up. The bonus $ days are cool, and increasing survival mode char XP and gem payouts would make replay value a lot better. I would love to share some ideas about making the game more than an average TD game, for example: using a conveyar belt that rotates

Really enjoyable tower defense game. Tons and tons of levels to keep you occupied. A fun and interesting upgrade system. A wide variety of level layouts to challenge you. It's true that buying some crystal packs can get you ahead but I don't personally have a problem with spending a bit of money on a very enjoyable gaming experience. This gets a big thumbs up from me.

I love this game and yet I hate this game. I've gotten to a point where I simply can not beat a level cleanly. My biggest complaint is the money you start a level with. 9 times out of 10 it is no where near enough and so you have to watch an ad to get more. From a financial standpoint I get it. From an "entertainment" point, it's irritating. Especially when you have to do it multiple times. A suggestion I would have is to have a talent point reset.

Awful design that demands cash to progress or a ridiculous amount of downtime. It's a tower defense game with stamina.. It cloaks itself in the glamour of having a skill tree which is really just a tiered system adding another layer of paywall to the already strangled gameplay. It isn't clever or intuitive. It's a generic and overdone. You either get the DPS upgrades or you fail every time. As if that wasn't bad enough on its own there is a stamina bar as well. I'd lol but it's just sad.

As soon as I seen the gas tank icon it was a 1 star automaticly. The gameplay is good but these tower defense types are completely ruined when you add features such as this. It basically puts a time limit for how long you can play! So forget farming that goes right out the window. Not only that but you will literally gain no rewards once you complete all levels of a stage and try to replay them, BUT it still requires fuel to play it?! Now that is absolutely ridiculous. Waisted all fuel on 2 lvls

The game play is 5*, the cost structure is 0*. I would gladly like to support the game by paying for it, however, the badges, which are necessary at higher levels are too expensive. No game is so good as to be worth more than $60-$80; the badges cost $104 and $208 / year which is grossly excessive. I'd be willing to pay ~US$4 / month.

Very solid tower defense game and honestly one of my favorites. The levels are definitely challenging, but not impossible. My complaint is that later upgrades are too expensive, and until more levels are added, there is really no easy way to get currency for upgrades without paying or spending many hours grinding.

Devs designed the game so when you do an upgrade the enemy recieves a counter upgrade. So you never really get any upgrades. You can buy items during gameplay to help you get a win but you Cannot play this way unless you spend real money on packages. While you can occasionally save enough to use one time its designed for you to spend in order for the game to progress at a normal pace. Grinding is out on this game as once you beat a level you can only play it again a couple times then 0 rewards.

Fun and challenging. The game has both an upgrade system for the towers and heroes. This is a great system because if you get stuck progressing through the levels there are multiple approaches to take to beat those levels. You can either grind previous levels you didn't perfect for gold to upgrade your turrets or heroes or rethink your strategy for a level or a combination of the two. My only complaint is there isn't enough levels! I've nearly perfect each level and it's still fun!

Solid tower defense game. The variety of maps is nearly unending. I really like being forced to pick routes for the enemy based on how I place my towers. The game can be repetitive at times. Chapter 5 is a real sudden uptick in difficulty. The localization needs to be proofed quite a bit. There's also some yellow dots that aren't explained. Really curious about them.

Great game, tons of upgrades, easy to learn, hard to master. Currently on chapter 5. The downside is you don't get any gold or crystals for replaying completed levels. You can grind for character experience, but not resources for upgrades. So eventually becomes a p2w game. Several modes of play per level, defense, escape, fog, and survival. Fun for a while, but in my opinion gets repetitive and boring over time. Bottom line, it's worth giving a try.

Unless you're one of the very best TD players and can meticulously plan out your upgrade trees, you're going to have to drop some money on the game. Good news is, the pricing is pretty generous. 10 bucks for 2K gold will cover a lot of upgrades that will get you a good deal further into the game, but you're definitely gonna have to spend more later on. It's a fairly good game, but if you're strictly looking for a f2p game, don't bother with this one. You'll uninstall after the first chapter.

It was good, great even, then I got to the very middle of chapter 5. I've gone back and beaten just about every level prior, to its fullest, and still cannot unlock enough upgrades to beat this level. I refuse to pay to win a game. I've watched enough extra starting money ads to pay twice over for this game and now I feel as though I wasted all this time because someone, somewhere, decided to be a bit greedier them they should've been.

Very fun game! I do have to agree with a lot of other players about chapter 5, though. Once you get about midway chapter 5, it becomes nearly impossible to move forward. I like repeating levels to get better at them, but this becomes very repetitive quickly. Great game, it just needs some adjustments to help us move forward.

Very good TD until...You get to chapter 5. It becomes impossible to progress without paying into the game. I don't mind the fuel system as it replenishes quickly enough. The fact that you can't replay levels for gold is where it really kicks you in the nuts. The tech trees are really cool, as well as the commander characters. I just wish you could grind gold.

Very fun TD through the first 4 sectors --enjoyed it a ton. The Fog scenarios can be difficult, but also a nice challenge. Somewhere in sector 5, the game becomes nearly unplayable. The level rewards are capped, so you won't be able to grind. And unfortunately, meaningful upgrades are approaching 1000 gold, so you can't earn them anyway. If you want to support the game, do so early when the upgrades are affordable. Gold becomes increasingly worthless as a single upgrade can go over 10,000 gold towards the later part of the tree. Good TD, but you'll almost certainly leave a lot of content unplayed due to the extreme difficulty, and inability to upgrade.
