Simplistic but not easy, very well-made as a strategy game and definitely worth its cost.

A little rough around the edges but exactly what the title promises. Good fun and worth the low price.

Surprisingly well done. If you can ignore a bit weird English and minimalistic graphics (they are fine really, the only issue I have is that the icons do not show how damaged a tower/wall is), it's a deep, well balanced, very well designed tower defense game that requires some strategic thinking. I see some interesting design ideas in there that I have not really seen anywhere before. For example, there are some crystal towers of various kinds. Already in themselves they are fine, they are different than other towers. But they also have an interesting ability, instead of targetting enemies directly, they can send their attack to another, special tower, which can then forward this attack to somewhere further, and this can be chained, using multiple of those special towers to forward the attack from one place to far on the map. Another rather unique idea is that most towers can't shoot over mountains, but mortars can. This is so simple, but I cannot recall any other tower defense game that did this, and it very nicely transforms the design of the map. Another example - one enemy type shots bullets when you kill it. Meaning you have to protect your towers getting hurt even if they manage to kill the enemy before it reaches them. Again, not something I've seen ever before. There are some cons though too. The biggest one is that there's no way to see the HP and path of the specific enemy during playthrough. That annoys me a bit, as especially in later, more difficult levels, it makes it a bit harder to plan. And most of the levels are quite open, so it would be nice to see where the enemies will go through. The minimalistic interface, while I like it overall, could be improved. Changing the order of tower types that you take to a mission is especially bad. Another issue is in later missions when there are so many enemies attacxking, it's impossible to tell what are their types, as they all bunch up together. But those are minor issues. Overall if you are a fan of the genre, you really have to try it.

the game is crazy good, minimalist yet greater in scheme of tower defense ^^ you start with couple of chapter learning and then put on the real task of defense a crazy amount of enemy I dont see any english review so I leave mine here for anyone want to try, not much words in this game so i bet anyone could understand it by play through it clear the game at normal level, the game offered 5 chapter, with in about 8 actually chapters to play (each big chapter has some extra play for you to unlock more slot) so the game about 40 defense play through it! The pacing has some issue that even fastest pace still too slow, but dont underestimate the ai, some hard chapter would beat you to death if you forget spending sometime if there is too many enemy, they with the fastest pace will crush your defense, so in some section the game will force you to play with slowest speed just to make sure you survive Surely very large number of tower but i inthe end use mostly some overpower tower (most of purple rank is OP) to fight my way through normal difficulty of all stage Hard/extreme is another story, i will update one i actually made it, half of the achiment unlock on hardest difficulty which after just some early chapter i find that very tought already In the end the game worth your money and time =]] of course it will have flaw but i find flaw of this game is passable.

If you want a Tower Defense challenge, I suspect this could be it. Currently fighting my way through the easiest level and really enjoying the ride. Graphics are simple but good (music is reasonably interesting), and most of the bells and whistles are there. A well priced title.
