2025-01-21	John McGiffin	Simple, horrible, and full of ads. Not worth it, even for free. The ads are multiple periods of waiting for more than 5 seconds for a tiny x to show up, then it trys to sell/advertise the app again, then more waiting for the next x to show up. 30+ seconds total sometimes. Oops, you missed the tiny we tried to make impossible to hit... you must have wanted to download this app. Here, let us download it for you... Not worth it.
2023-11-15	J B	This is honestly a really good solid TD game. Not a fan of the upgrades only being usable on certain levels. If anything, I wish there were more levels and a bit more enemy variety. 20 levels is too short for how addictively simple this game is. I'd ask for more towers and I'd have some ideas for them, but really, I just want more levels.
2023-07-01	Jaja Mellow	This is a must have game for all of those Tower Defense game lovers, I have found it very enjoyable and easy to learn wich I found very good and there are next to 0-no adds wich I really like, the only downside is that there not to many levels wich is kind of disappointing but each level is difficult but not hard and not to easy, just enough to make one think in a strategic manner...hope to see more levels in the future 🔮.
2023-05-30	steven schkolne	I've played a ton of TD games and this one is quite nice. Not demanding, just laid back chill kinda game. You earn cash as you beat levels allowing you to upgrade your towers. Sometimes I couldn't beat a level, earned cash, upgraded, then I could beat it rather easily. Made me wonder - was it possible to get a perfect score without the upgrades? So not set up for hardcore challenge but wtvr -- many levels had me iterating to figure them out so all good.
2023-04-25	Parth Mistry	By far, the BEST TD game I have found on the play store. If you are a game designer reading this, PLEASE PRIORITISE CLUTTER-FREE GAME ENVIRONMENTS AND SIMPLICITY over complicated environments and over-done graphics. This game is the benchmark for simplicity in mobile games. No nonsense. No backstory. No unnecessary characters. Just enter. Play. Replay. Sleep. Repeat. I LOVE the design style of this game. No over-designed tanks. No over-designed explosions. Absolutely spot on. SEQUEL PLEASE!!!!!
2023-04-06	Josh Warner	The gameplay was great and it was what I needed but it only had 20 levels that didn't take long to beat. Even if this game had an endless mode it would be worth it, but I feel like I wasted my time and now that the game is beat, I don't want to play it anymore. That might not be a bad thing to some, I understand that but most mobile games have way more play time capabilities.
2023-04-05	Richard	It's a fun strategy game but the limitation on towers kinda dampers the gameplay. I know that's part of the strategy of the game. But it's really slow and grindy to max out 2 damage turrets and a couple support towers. And then there's so many levels. At least put in a money generating tower you can use from the start. I've got my units maxed for the level I'm on and can't use any others. The gold is the limiting factor. I'm only on lv 5 and can't clear 3 stars because of not enough gold
2023-01-19	Justin Pearman	Fun! Make you think challenging but in all the great ways! Need more of it! Devs should add more levels as well unlock already existing ones so that they keep going.. arcade-style, as many rounds as you can last! Would add new dimensions to already programmed levels with a minimum amount of additional programming needed. Would definitely pay-to-play more.
2022-12-01	Elizabeth Anderson	Great tower defense game. If you're looking for a simple, clean TD then this is the game for you. Occasional ads but nothing obtrusive. Some TD games leave me feeling overwhelmed from the jump but this one is straight forward and easy to grasp. Hard to master though. Took me quite a while to get 3 stars on every level! I would love to see a feature added that let's you define which tower targets which enemy, for example first in line, last in line, weakest, strongest. Might add to the strategy.
2022-11-03	Matt Richardson	I love this game, I've played it on and off for years and have never had any complaints. The only thing that I really wish, is that devs would update the game from time to time to add more levels, or even make an Endless level that continues indefinitely or something like that. In addition to new levels, I also think that power ups or additional cannons would be a great update aswell. The game has been out for awhile, so it may not be likely to expect an update, but it would be awesome!
