Oct. 2024

Another real fun tower defence game from the creators of the previous Kingdom Rush games, this time focusing on some earlier time in the storyline and allowing your heroes to keep their max level earned from experience and having a variety of abilities to put levels onto. Just like the previous ones, your earned rewards from different levels are used to improve magic spells and towers, granting passive bonuses that carry on through to the many levels in the future. After finishing the game, new additional levels are released, being fairly difficult and forcing you to think extremely carefully on how to tackle the waves and bosses.

I picked up Kingdom Rush Origins during the Steam Summer Sale and put in about 9 hours over the last couple of days, which is quite a bit for me. The game has some solid points— the graphics are vibrant and appealing, and the gameplay hits that sweet spot for tower defense fans. The variety of heroes adds some depth, and there’s definitely good replay value. On the downside, it can feel a bit repetitive after a while, and the difficulty spikes might frustrate some players. Still, if you’re into tower defense, it’s a solid pick.

It is a good tower defense game, but the balance is too bad. You only need the magic arrow tower and two barracks to pass almost all levels. Except for the occasional magic tower, other towers are useless and not as fun as the front line.

Once again another great tower defense game in the Kingdom Rush series! Plenty of imagination used to make the usual towers and enemies seem fresh and fun. I highly recommend it to fans of this genre as well as those looking for a challenge.
