### 4/5 — Unable to remove runes or use Breeze rune

*2026-06-26, version 1.0.24*

I believe I’ve found a bug in the iOS version (v1.0.24). And possibly previous versions.

I’m trying to use the Breeze rune, but it says “Incompatible with other runes.” I understand Breeze must be used by itself.

The problem is that I cannot find any way to remove the runes that are already on the rune board.

I’ve tried:

* Tapping a rune.
* Pressing and holding a rune.
* Double-tapping.
* Dragging the rune.
* Tapping empty slots.
* Using the red circular-arrow button.
* Pressing the green check and the red X.

The red circular-arrow only toggles selection, and the green check/red X only save or exit. There doesn’t appear to be any option to unequip or replace an individual rune.

Is this a bug in the iOS interface, or is there a gesture or control I’m missing?

Thanks

### 4/5 — 재밌는데 밸런스문제가 좀 있네요

*2026-06-19*

레이저를 얻는 순간 모든 미션을 레이저 한종류만으로 쉽게 이길 수 있습니다. 뭔가 같은 타워를 더 많이 만들수록 누적 패널티를 받는다던가 그런게 있어야할거같네요

### 4/5 — Great game with a major flaw

*2026-06-17, version 1.0.22*

The gameplay is awesome, when I can actually get to it.

This new map and card system you implemented is bizarre, cryptic and a complete waste of my time. I get so angry just trying to find a map to play that I end up randomly tapping things until something happens, and then it’s usually something I already played. 

Your old system was fine and easy to understand, this is nonsense and it makes me not want to play at all.

I’m disappointed because I really like your games.

### 5/5 — Ich mein das Spiel ist Top aber eine Frage:

*2026-05-27*

Wie kann ich die fallen auswählen die ich mit in einen Dungeon nehme….. ich finde die Option einfach nicht.

### 5/5 — Another 10 out of 10

*2026-05-20, version 1.0.21*

Every once in a while I search the App Store hoping to see another iteration and I was so excited to see 3 released.

These games are perfect and unique takes on the Tower Defense genre. Play them all!

### 3/5 — 폰트가독성

*2026-05-20*

인게임내 글씨가 깨알같이 너무 작아 읽을수가 없음

**Developer response:** 안녕하세요. 해보까나님.
저희가 게임에 익숙하다보니 정보 전달이 미흡한 부분에서 놓친 점이 있었던 것 같습니다. 확인해서 개선해보도록 하겠습니다. 혹시 특별히 불편하셨던 부분이 있다면 알려주시면 참고하도록 하겠습니다.

플레이 해주셔서 감사합니다.

### 5/5 — 良い

*2026-05-20*

pc版でプレイして面白かったのでこちらも購入した。面白い

### 5/5 — DW3 !!

*2026-05-18*

😀👍

### 5/5 — Best current Tower defense

*2026-05-17, version 1.0.2*

This is my favorite recent tower defense. Great progression, great interactions with different tower configurations. I already bought it on my PC and am buying again to have it available mobile.

### 5/5 — Pc로 엄청재미있게했어요

*2026-05-16*

1,2,3다 가지고있어요!! Pc로 엄청재미있게했는데 모바일이 나와서 기쁩니다!!!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — 買わなければ良かった。

*2026-06-25*

前作の引き継いだ要素しか説明が無く、新しい要素の説明がほとんど無い。
ハクスラ要素が消失し、同じダンジョン繰り返しても経験値がたまらなくなったため、周回要素も喪失した。
今作はアニマというコンボを重視する仕様だが、そもそも罠自体弱すぎるし、値段高くて配置できず、数の暴力でボコボコにされる。
罠を育てようにも経験値が貯まらないし、レベル上げてもごく僅かにしか増強しない。ハクスラ要素がない分シナジーとかを考える楽しみもない。

### 1/5 — No support for controller

*2026-06-19*

Please add support for controllers

### 1/5 — Bad Grammar

*2026-06-14, version 1.0.22*

I would give this game five stars if they would use better spelling and grammar. I know the developers of this game are smart enough to correctly spell words like “won’t,” but the sad truth is they choose not to do so. They must be trying to relate to younger audiences or stupid people who don’t understand punctuation. Either way, shame on them for perpetuating a disregard for basic spelling and grammar. Again, fix it and get five stars. Great game otherwise!

### 2/5 — Ruining the franchise

*2026-06-22*

Was a good game in the past but now with 3 trying to do too much random stuff. Just keep it simple and stop over complicating things

### 2/5 — 説明不足

*2026-06-13*

前作の引き継いだ要素しか説明が無く、新しい要素の説明がほとんど無い。
プレイして試行錯誤して、資源を無駄にしながらしか理解できない。

### 3/5 — Force not being added despite upgrade

*2026-08-03, version 1.0.24*

Harpoon and spring trap still are being built with their base level of force despite upgrading them. Makes them useless

### 3/5 — Balloons

*2026-07-28, version 1.0.24*

Incredible game and the art is amazing as always…..but really the balloons kill it for me.

### 3/5 — It's a grind

*2026-07-10, version 1.0.24*

I loved DW2, but in this version, it seems like a grind to get new traps. I like making different builds with cool traps, but I dont like the grind. It takes away the excitement.

### 3/5 — 무한모드 튕김

*2026-06-03*

무한모드로 경험치 좀 올렸다 싶으면 튕깁니다..한시간한거 세번이나 튕겨서 진짜 너무 승질나네요.
왜이렇게 자주 튕기나요?업데이트좀 해야될거같습니다..할때마다 튕겨요..
아이폰17프로 인데도 말이죠

어떤맵이든 스테이지 400?500?정도  이상으로 넘어가면 빌드 상관없이 발열이 심해지다가 튕깁니다. 메모리누수나 모바일 최적화 문제가 아닐까 합니다.

**Developer response:** 안녕하세요, 어려워여아아응님. 불편을 드려서 죄송합니다.

해당 문제를 조사 중이며, 혹시 어떤 맵에서 몇 웨이브 정도 됐을 때 주로 문제가 발생했는지 알려주시면 해결에 도움이 될 수 있을 것 같습니다. 최대한 빠르게 해결 할 수 있도록 노력하겠습니다.

플레이 해주셔서 감사합니다.

**Developer response:** 안녕하세요, 어려워여아아응님.

이번 1.0.24 업데이트에서 장시간 플레이 시 발생 가능한 메모리 문제와 오류들을 수정하였습니다. 테스트 해보시고 개선이 되었는지, 아니면 여전히 문제가 발생하는지 알려주시면 향후 개발에 참고하도록 하겠습니다.

항상 감사드립니다!

### 5/5 — 起動しない

*2026-06-25*

お金出して買ったのに起動しないんですが…？
追記　再インストールしたら遊べました。

### 5/5 — High quality

*2026-06-17*

Fun game, a lot of things to do.

### 5/5 — Agree with mrblasty

*2026-06-15, version 1.0.22*

This is an excellent series that deserves attention.  The gameplay is tight and interesting. However the confusing menus, new map system and cards all detract from the excellent tower defense. 

I’ve played the first two so I feel like this iteration is a step in the wrong direction. 

Updated review:
I noticed the place tiles automatically button that I think is targeted for my play style. So I think it manages the map automatically if you are not into the tile management.

### 5/5 — Crazy good

*2026-06-12, version 1.0.22*

Haven’t played any of the previous games but as a TD lover and reading reviews I decided to buy it. Absolutely incredible game already, can’t believe I never saw or heard about the series until now. 100% recommend

### 5/5 — Great game with a major flaw

*2026-06-11*

Update: maybe I’m getting old but I don’t get the cards with the map, what’s the point? Far too often I’m just tapping everything over and over just to get to a match. It’s getting to the point where I just get angry and don’t even play.

It’s a GAME. I want to open it, click ONE BUTTON and play a game, the end.

Fix this, and it’s perfect.

You can tell this series is made by people that love games. 100% worth the cost, no ads, just fun gameplay that basically lasts forever.

The art style is unique, the gameplay somehow never feels repetitive, there’s a million things to unlock and all the modifiers and choices you can make feel like they matter.

This is exactly what I want in a mobile game, an ACTUAL game that isn’t trying to sell me stuff and was clearly made by nerds that play dungeons and dragons on the weekend and don’t give a rip about selling out to make a billion dollars.

### 5/5 — 楽しい！

*2026-06-08*

普段はレビューしないですが、久々に続編がてて嬉しくてレビューします！

### 5/5 — Simply Fantastic

*2026-06-01, version 1.0.22*

Despite buying and playing all three games on other systems, it always feels worth it to also buy to play on my tablet and this one is no different!

Definitely one of the few games that can provide a very specific form of tower defense (trap defense) in a way that always feels fresh and satisfying as hell, just simply marvelous if it hits right for you.

### 5/5 — めちゃくちゃ面白い！

*2026-05-31*

1&2もプレイ済み。3はかなりパワーアップしてて大満足！
