App frequently, 90% of the time, won’t finish loading past 65% so it’s unplayable.
Fun, but slow progress
I have played many tower defense games. I do recommend this one. This one is a bit unique and has some fun attributes that are simple, but add a fun layer to the game. I have been playing for several weeks causally as I can (no money spent, but watched many adds as I wanted to help with progress). The mini games are fun and add a nice layer to the game. The issue I have is the progress is slow for World 2. I have been on it for about a week and progressed all the way to wave 50, but continue to get one shot by the boss no matter my health/regen/shield/etc. I would be good with some challenge, but this is a massive one shot (over 68,000 hp + 10,000 shield. I have not unlocked all of the tower levels yet (I almost to level 4). I am hoping it unlocks something to help with the bosses. I have also maxed out most of the attack attributes.
Laser Gun NOT On the Tower!?!?
Epic fail. This is a tower defense game. There is a flat platform on top of the tower where you would ASSUME the laser gun would be mounted…NOPE! It sits on the ground off to the side and looks like a weird mushroom.
Ad Rewards
I don’t want to watch 3 sets of 2 ads to finally get the reward, besides that I’d enjoy the game
Y’all need to fix the Satellites.
I love the game. But please fix the bug where you pay for more Satellites and it stays 0. And nothing happens. Even when buying with gold or coins. I’ll change to 5 stars when it’s fixed.
Ad
Why can't I watch the ad? I used to be able to watch it, but now I can't.
Ads
Please fix the lower tab for ads can’t reach the bottom of the attack to upgrade.
Had me in the first half, ngl
Started off as a really cool game that I genuinely enjoyed, but the longer I played, the more impossible it became to play without paying for something. First they take away your free x2 boosts, then they take away your ads so that you can’t get any boosts at all (“Video not ready” is the excuse), and then they suddenly drop your boss bonus coins to 0. From there, the game becomes impossible to continue. Not to mention the little Gold Tribe event mini game is rigged against you and the coin and gold discount upgrades do absolutely nothing. Find another game to play. Don’t waste your time here.

Keep it up

Dont spent money on this game
Bought the monthly premium pass, auto turns on the monthly subscription, disgusting behavior tries to scam you if you forgets to unsubscribe, and when I turn off the auto sub and check the game again, they didn’t even process it or just cancel it right away, I didn’t even get my items.how do you make money with your game when there’s bug and scam with most of the purchases? Bye
The game is good, it just suffers from lack of upgrades
I’ve played the game for awhile now and I’ve unlocked and upgraded all of the cards. But I’ve found that only a handful of cards are actually worth using while the others are bland. It’d be nice to have a reason to use them.
Stopped working and lost all progress
The app stopped working and when I tried to re-install it I lost all progress.
ATM 3
Spent abit on this game but I’m lost I’m on world 5 and my fortress is max and it says at bottom get season decor to unlock then the other says get the first power booster to unlock no idea how to unlock any ideas ?
No Forced Ads
5/5 for no forced ads, decent gameplay
Ad watching simulator
as with almost every single game out there, this is an ad watching simulator. you do not progress meaningfully without watching ads. I do fully F2P, and I have to say the experience is clearly as miserable as possible in order to incentivize spending money for progress… in a single player PvE game? do NOT waste your money on games like these, if the game is ‘free’ you shouldn’t have to spend money or watch ads just to have fun. play a better game.
Community
I would really like to see a discord or something other than just updates listed under here for comments from the dev. Game is great upgrading seems fair.
Good game really buggy
Has lots of little bugs one of which is losing all your round coins at the start of a new wave. Makes it almost unplayable
Impossible daily quest
The newest update allows for daily quest and a few new things that I don’t remember off the top of the head.. none the less the point I’m bringing to the forefront are the new daily quest. The first “Daily” list I got was lvl up HP 40times which cost me about 8.9k gold each lvl up. Then it wants me to use 2 different rare cards in battle 5 times.. which the only way to get rare cards or any card in general are with purple crystals.. 25 crystals will get you 1 card and 115 will get you 5 cards with low chances of a rare.. I’ve spent somewhere between 800-1000 crystals and only have 2 rare cards that are useless to me right now.. keep in mind you only get 5 free crystals every 4 hours and occasionally while you’re playing a little green dude will pop up and give you 2. point is, its virtually impossible to complete these daily quest without spending money which is lame because this game is fun… Make doable quest for everyone please.
It very fun and addicting
Play it if you what a fun game that can last for months
Usura
Este juego independientemente de no tener algún sentido está diseñado para sacarte dinero a toda costa, pues no avanzas en las oleadas al no ser que pagues, mis más sinceros pésames a los desarrolladores de esta estafa , lo desinstale a los 5 minutos, si quieren dinero hagan algo que valga la pena.
Entertaining
A lot of ads. But fun.
Progress stalls quickly
It’s fun at first but after round 10 progress crawls by and it didnt explain much of the game you kinda just get left to fend for yourself
Bad update
Decrease the basic critical strike effect,the new card look like the new rubbish,if u want kill world 4 and world 5,u just need add hp.Not good update very boring 😷
Honest review from an honest gamer.
One of the best mobile idle games I’ve ever seen. Amazing graphics, steady progression, loads of content, and plenty of strategy. I believe this game has an invaluable design and end product, and should be played by many. I rate this game 5 stars out of 5 due to all of its creative, innovative, and otherwise clever features. I would recommend this game to anyone looking for an idle game, a mobile game that takes a lot of time, or something just for fun here and there.
All my progress GONE?!?!?!
I had more then 40 hours Gone just like that
A little hard but overall good
I like this game but it is a little hard to progress.
Watch video multipliers don’t work
Fun but limited as a glitchy game
Game is fun however the fortress upgrade points don’t line up
I have been playing a while, when the fortress upgrade points came around at first they worked good and now when they are earned the points don’t match when research or upgrades complete the reward points for those aren’t matching my fortress upgrade progress
fun game
this is a cool game to play if you have bad internet or traveling
Dev steals your money
Sells you daily keys, lets you buy a bunch under the understanding the keys are daily, then randomly takes them away in an update but keeps your money.
Bug
I found a bug on the app that isn’t necessarily a problem but I’d like to bring it to the devs attention if possible. I’m not sure how to go about that.
Good but some major flaws.
The gold boss is still broken. I’m on level like 37 or something and the only reason I lose to it is because it doesn’t come out till the timer is half over. THE TIMER SHOULDNT STSRT TILL I CAN HIT THE BOSS. I’ll lose one then the very next one it comes out way earlier near the start of the timer and I destroy the boss. Another thing he can’t be hit sometimes while moving. All he does is move its like you purposely have it programmed to be I kill or based off you’re current stats just so people have to watch an ad to get the gold. So stupid please fix this. Wish I could attach a picture just took one. Lv37 the timer got down to the start of the 7 about 1/4th of the timer is gone before the boss is even on screen and I still can’t hit it cause it’s moving. So stupid
Needs to be Balanced
At the beginning of the game everything is balanced, enemies are a challenge and you need to do a reasonable amount of upgrades to progress through the stages. Once you get to the third world though there are invisible enemies that regardless of your stats and what cards you have equip will kill you unless you have an enormous amount of health simply to tank the hits. I have upgraded my health to 200k (upgrades now cost 100k gold) and they each do more than half of that. My damage insta kills all of the small monsters (invis guys included) but they get a guaranteed hit, so when they come in a group it’s impossible to regenerate your health for the next two hits once your shield breaks. I have been trying to get past this world for 2 weeks now and maybe progress 1 wave every 4-5 days. I can only imagine what the future worlds are going to be like. But there are balancing issues that need to be fix for a more enjoyable player experience.
Idle game but still interactive
I like idle games, but I can’t stand the ones that really don’t have much to do/interact with. This has plenty of things to do and several worlds to beat.
Utterly broken
Where you tap IS NOT where the game says you tapped. Impossible to play.
Ads aren’t working lol
great game but the ads aren’t working for me which is annoying as I am not getting the boosts and the devs aren’t getting the money.
Poor balancing
Game has degraded a lot since I last played, Economy used to be strong but fruitful, a nice and satisfying way to play. That no longer exists, and on top of that having an enemy you’re forced to face tank as you can’t target it before hand, with so few attributes in health (shield does not scale fast enough), it is an utter slog of hundreds of levels into things which offer no other benefit If invisible enemies were removed, maybe the lack of economy would be manageable - as it is, both combined are far too much and hard halt any progress for what must be literal months Combined with the RNG of spawn order and it’s not satisfying, not enjoyable, and seemingly following in every world past this point (Brute forced world 2, Damn near impossible to move past mid-late 3, many many upgrades in everything - Maxed in all Atk and Defence that aren’t uncapped ffs! [With most achievements dried out] And requiring entire farm runs to get half an upgrade in anything anymore, which does so little proportionally now)
Offer
So I paid £4.99 for 2x on Gold and a ALL adverts removed for 24 hours, so the first ad was skipped but after that it was advert after advert on everything which was meant to be removed for 24 hours. I’m not happy with this!!! The game is a good game so far. The removal of all adverts for £29.99 is daylight robbery!!!
Fun! Strategic!
It’s a classic defense game but there are so many choices on what to upgrade you have to be strategic about. If you really want to move up, watch ads and get all kinds of cool stuff. When you’re just starting out, attack speed and strength are more important than health. Then work on health and then work on special stuff like multi shot and double shot. Really fun!
There is no way to save the game
There is no way we can save our progress, if you delete it mistakenly you’ll loss all of you did
Great but has bugs
I spend a lot of time on the game and it’s not a waste of time. But there are bugs after completing world1, such as not being able to collect wave rewards or daily gifts not working which make is frustrating. Also the achievements rewards should be x100 as there is no point of getting 1k for 3hours of time. There is no way of communicating with dev as there’s no discord server. But the gameplay is good.
Economy nuked
This was one of my fav tower defences. The most annoying problems were: weird caps (like 60% crit chance cap), knockback that knocks enemies from tower range, too many ads in main menu. I have paid to remove ads, and everything else more or less bearable, but then came out the ‘upgrade’ which I think is actually a downgrade. The in-game economy was killed, I no longer make in-game decisions of when to level up what, and I cannot invest into gold too much to loose on round 10, I can only upgrade attack now, which is so boring. This was a 4/5 stars until the most recent update. Now 2/5 at best ;(
Good but slow
It’s a good game but the progression is very slow. Playing from the start again and again gets repetitive very quickly.
Cheaters
Game is full of cheaters devs don’t ban any of them :_(
Started Fun, Don’t Bother
The game has a function where at the end of the match, there is a little minigame to add a multiplier to your gold gain. If you actually hit the good multipliers, it adds an advert to that multiplier to get the bonus. It kept removing free bonuses to replace with ad bonuses, which is incredibly manipulative and I will be uninstalling the game purely off of this design choice.
Good
Good
Good game - shame development has stopped
I write this as a warning to people not to spend any money on the game. It is a really good idle tower game but only has 4 levels. That’s it. No activity. Yes you can keep playing but what’s the point. You can’t progress. You finish level 4 and that is it. Nothing. Which is a shame because the balance of progression and earning rewards is good, the game play is nice and polished, the graphics are good etc. I’ve kept it on my phone in the hopes an update will appear but it doesn’t. I fear it will soon be deleted. Come on devs - update before it’s gone for good
False advertising
Simply not an idle game
