Still My Favorite!
In 2025, this is still by far my favorite Tower Defense game. I know TM2 is out, but I’d love to see them release new maps for this one. I’d buy them!
Love the 80s
Streamlined TD gaming with zero nonsense
Yes, there are kind of cute character animations in this game. Wobbly UFOs, lumbering giants, gross unstoppable cockroaches, but the animations do not get in the way of the game play. All TD gamers want is the thrill of setting up defenses, upgrading, placing, and hopefully winning. There has been a trend to make screens so idiotically busy that the pleasure of the strategy disappears — I’m talking to you, Bloons, and to some extend the sequel to this game. Luckily we still have this simple tower defense game that is cute but not too cute. Simple but not too easy. Developers: this is the game. I think I downloaded 2 and just noped out. Keep this game simple and fun. I bought your expansion packs and they were worth it. Sadly I had to delete everything and I’m hoping the previously purchased expansions show up again now that I’m setting up the phone again. To fans of TD, there are very few games left that offer this level of engaging strategy with out a bunch of bologna.
