The game is good until it became harder, exponentially. Very expensive items at the store, drop rates of needed parts for the towers and heroes is low and the amount of it is also low. Also the reward system of the game sucks. The only positive thing I'm proud to say is that, you don't use energy when playing so that is great. But overall, I quickly got tired of the game. Uninstalled.

Goes from fun to grinding fast. The thing that really ruins it for me is the cost of in game purchases. The amount of money I would have to spend is very unrealistic and wouldn't amount to much in game upgrades. Looking at the cost to buy gems vs what i would be able to do with it, just isn't worth it. I don't mind spending on well done games like this one but not until there is some balance. Also frustrated that the gauntlet ticket timer does not show remaining time properly.

What's with the game asking me to spend $9.99 on a level 11, but the confirmation says level 6? Fun tower defense, one of the better, non-grid based games. Ads are non intrusive, though recently, I'll watch an entire ad and following that ad, another ad briefly pops up and then displays that it failed; leaving no bonus rewards.

Just one of the thousands of generic games which is intentionally (I'm sure) impossible to beat without shelling out cash for upgrades. So damn sick of this, Is it not enough that you have to watch ads in game as well? I've been waiting for years for someone to create a legitimately challenging and thoughtful strategy game that doesn't ask for your hard earned dollars to have an enjoyable experience, and this game is as far from it as it could be. Absolutely deplorable.

Game is fun until around chapter 7. At this point you're still about halfway through your max upgrades on towers, which doesn't coincide with the difficulty spike. All towers should be able to be fully upgraded way before this to keep it balanced. Had to stop playing at this point because it started becoming a grind rather than a fun tower defense game.

Originally had this game rated at 4 stars. Got further into the game, now level 132, and the gold problem is a huge issue. There is no way to rank up your towers or heroes late game other than buying packages with real world currency. The game and the story are fun, but it's either poorly designed and allows a player to fall far behind the rank requirements, or it was planned this way as a cash grab. Disappointing to have wasted 50 hours on this game only to give up because I'm not paying...

This game starts out really good, but quickly becomes impossible to play without spending lots of money. I've had it just over a week and only played occasionally and am already stuck. The levels quickly become too hard and require upgrades that will require a lot of level grinding to get the cards for upgrades or a lot of money. It's not hard to get new heroes, but they are useless, because they are weak. The only way to make them useable in reasonable time is spending money

Could be amazing, if it weren't one of the worst pay to play games I've ever seen! I actually got suckered into putting 20 bucks into it, and I still can't even begin to beat the higher levels after months of play. There is no farming of defeated levels to make money to upgrade, thereby forcing you to pay real money to be able to compete on the upper levels. Dont waste your time!

Loved it until I logged in and it had deleted my linked-to-Facebook data. Log out, back in, still at the tutorial. Was all the way to level 80+, lol. I'm not sure how common this is, but I doubt it's frequent. I may just be unlucky... However, I don't like restarting when it wasn't complete, so that's the last I'll play. 2 stars for personal experiences, it'd be 5 otherwise.

Nice visuals and audio are necessary for a great game and this one has good polish in terms of music, sfx, and visuals. The gameplay, however, is abysmal because controllable units are unresponsive and it's hard to select them. It's especially frustrating when enemies come seemingly out of nowhere because the game doesn't start you out seeing the entire map. Even though it should be a given, since the map is literally half of the game. The worst part is the lootbox randomized tower upgrades.

Great graphics, challenging game play, good characters; but after a certain time as the amount of coins increase to upgrade and the amount of coins granted through chests or winning chapters decrease, it becomes impossible to continue. I've paid money, but it is never enough after about chapter 26. So I've just started deleting the game at that point and restarting new and have never been able to complete the entire game.

Probably the best game I've ever played on android. No annoying ads being thrown in your face. Excellent graphics and gameplay. I never give 5 stars but this game deserves it. -- EDIT -- So I've finally hit the coin issue that other reviews have talked about. I'm at a point now where I can't update anything because I am making no coin. So 1 star removed. A shame because this really is a good game. Also... I could be wrong but it seems that enemies scale to your level.

On surface a nice little game, decent graphics and controls. But the few towers are all pretty similar and lack some control (who to target), so the strategy becomes quickly just put out strongest towers and hope they target the correct enemies. Because of this the game quickly becomes a brute force strategy. Which in itself not terrible, but there is a lack of a mechanism to make your towers stronger, other than buying upgrades for cash, hence it is very much pay to win. Now you can replay missions for upgrade cards, but one lacks the gold to use them. There is an ad option to get gold or diamonds for upgrades, but it only seems to work about 10% of the time. The heroes are a good addition to the game, but again one ends up using the same ones over and over again. Lack of strategy and relying on just making them stronger, which falls back into pay to play mechanic. So if you are confortable paying to advance a bit in the game, and then hitting a wall in which you need to do it again and again, then this is a great game.

It's BS, it manipulates your experience constantly. The game doesn't want you to get the 1st prize and you will miss out, making 2 stars instead of 3. I've had cases where I won the 2nd time with no issues when the 1st time was impossible. I've also had cases where I used special powers and still lost but played it again and won. It only shows a certain amount of the screen and just because you can't see the end they'll barrel thru even tho you have plenty to stop them and know what passed.

Not a bad game. But, the constant indicators pointing you to BUY all the time and being unable to clear are a huge turnoff, as is the lack of earning gold or gems. I also don't like dealing with damage to my towers and having to worry about them. All of this together just becomes a chore rather than a fun game. Thanks for letting me try it! Not a huge fan!

Dropped a star because it seems devs have moved on to their new game & left us hanging. We've been waiting forever for more levels but all we have now is recycling events which are pointless once you've completed all levels & maxxed towers. The game itself is great & totally beatable without spending a dime. It does take a very long time upgrading because of coins but it is doable. There's lots of youtube vids if you get stuck on a level. So far all heroes are obtainable without spending.

It needs more gameplay...The card feature of upgrading your towers/heroes I think could be better...maybe a resource allocation instead woukd add some strategies...it's very playable though. The reason for the poor review is by the end it's nearly impossible to upgrade your towers and heroes without spending in game currency. Which is disappointing
