### 5/5 — Surprisingly Entertaining

*2014-10-17*

This was quite the fun app, and I enjoyed every aspect of the app, although it does need improvement in some areas. The app could use a tutorial although it is not so difficult once you get the hang of it. This is just a minor issue so it does not affect the rating. This app is great it is such a fun time passer. I just got the app, and I had to review so that you guys know how great it is. So here it is 5 out of 5. Try it, I did and I love it and then review it to pass on your opinion.

### 5/5 — Fun app

*2014-10-12*

This app is a fun app with an interesting storyline included in the game. The app is a bit complex, but they provide all the necessary information required to understand how to play the game and what's going on with the plot of the game. The intro screen shows a set of buttons that lead us to the instruction guide or start the game. Upon playing the game, we are provided with a bunch of weapons that we can place onto the board to protect the treasure from the monsters. We can either place the weapons ahead of time or place it as we play along. The game is simple and fun to play. The graphics need more work, but it is a good start.

### 2/5 — Needs improvements

*2014-10-04*

Fun tower defense game, however it lacks too many things and therefore I wouldn't recommend this game if you want a good TD game. It doesn't have a tutorial and no in-game explanations of what the defenses does. Which your average TD game should have. The basics are written down in a VERY long text, which REALLY makes this game bad, especially since the game is so complex and you generally dont want to read a 500 word essay before you get into the game. It really seems like the developers were just too lazy, which is unfortunate, as I actually liked the grahpics and wanted to see more. But the introductions just won't keep me long enough.

### 3/5 — Fun!

*2014-10-01*

The app is very entertaining yet it lacks a few things. First it needs a tutorial, the game starts you off playing not bowing what they heck it going on. Secondly, it does tell you where the enemies are coming from and what direction they are going. Besides that it's pretty fun.

### 5/5 — The Best Defence Game

*2014-09-26*

Finally a great defence game on the appstore
I was looking for some great casual games which are entertaining and good time killer
This is one of them and now one of my favourite games
A must try game :)

### 3/5 — Fun with potential

*2014-09-26*

This is a fun, exciting game where you have to protect your treasure from these robots, but I feel the lack of instructions could be improved. There is a gameplay guide that briefly describes the idea of the game, but there are many many options for towers to place with no idea of what each tower is capable of, so you are spending coins on towers that you are not sure are the best defense mechanism.

### 3/5 — Great game

*2014-09-26, version 1.0*

this game is an okay game nothing to rave about

### 4/5 — Good

*2014-09-24, version 1.0*

Good game i love this tip games.

### 3/5 — Alright

*2014-09-21, version 1.0*

this kind of games doesn’t interest me, but i find tis game to be alright.when is comes to the instructions/guide it is easy to follow.

### 5/5 — Good tower defense

*2014-09-19*

This tower defense game has really good gameplay and sounds. Very fun to play and not that difficult when starting out.  Good for novices or tower defense experts.  Very fun
