User reviews

Entirely unplayable on iPhone

I used to play this a jillion years ago on the desktop and it was great. The translation to mobile is unplayable. All the tap areas are too small, and placement is imprecise causing towers to drop in places you don’t want them.

Great Game

Super great addictive. Played this years ago so glad I found it again!!!!
Keep making great games!!!

Just like I remembered!

What a perfect recreation of the flash version! I was so disappointed that I couldn't play this on browser anymore, but this port is perfect! It's so fun. It seems like the issues noted by other reviewers have been fixed. I'm playing on an iPhone SE and it works just fine, despite my small phone size.

I only wish there was a way to pay $5 or $10 to remove advertisements. Otherwise, I love it!

UI not Mobile Friendly

They basically copied the desktop version and made it mobile app but the UI & UX is horrible compared to no having a mouse and the lack of memory of which item user selected. I stopped playing after 2 minutes.

Ads make this game unplayable

This is one of my favorite games. Unfortunately, un dismissible in game ads cover much of the playing space and more ads pop up between levels. 5 star game made unplayable.
