Mais c’est une bonne base , le jeux manque finalement en profondeur , il manque des possibilités d’améliorations d’armes, d’autre cartes, améliorations des soldat …. Beaucoup de jeux est de multiples essai pour finalement ne jamais pouvoir dépasser un certain nombre de niveaux ### 2/5 — Pay to win after 30 rounds *2022-09-30* The max I’ve been able to go is 31 rounds. Then I think the game wants you to pay to be able to get more coins to buy better weapons. Tough game but really enjoyable challenge. ### 4/5 — Coins *2022-09-08, version 3.0* More weapons and more coins for enemiges. ### 4/5 — update it *2022-08-03* please it need’s an update it keeps crashing but its sooo fun ### 2/5 — Buggy *2022-07-25* It is a fun game till the bugs stop all progression and your waiting on an enemy that won’t come. ### 4/5 — Some bugs in air enemies *2022-05-16, version 3.0* I keep coming back for this game for years! I'm just having some issues with the Candy Island map. Sometimes air perk don't take effect and I need to restart the game. ### 2/5 — Can’t win it’s impossible *2021-11-03* The game purposely glitches or closes out and removes more than half the towers/guns it had me pay for the subscription twice for it to do absolutely nothing … pointless and super upsetting. Do NOT download. ### 4/5 — Don’t forget ! *2021-09-24* A nice game to start, but the developers seems to have left this game out… Seems like a nice prototype. Needs huge improvements and levels lots of thing. ### 2/5 — Not suitable *2021-09-09, version 3.0* Its not really compatible with iphone xr :( and it so laggy ### 5/5 — CORRIGEZ CE BUG ! *2020-10-06* Excellent tower defense ! Rien à dire mise a pars le manque de map et SURTOUT , le jeux bug quand on met + 4 freezer ou si on les max lvll... il reste toujours 1 à 2 sbires qui sont super lent ! Quand je vous dit lent, c’est qu’il ma fallut 11 minute que le dernier atteigne ma 1er tour (round 49) Donc l’envie de push les round à disparue.. Sinon ce tower etais parfait. ### 5/5 — So disappointing *2020-09-24* Love the game and tried to reach level 100 but.. the game glitches at level 56 and many other levels I even bought the premium at level 30 to support and also get more maps and things but nothing happened after the purchase all the same Please fix all the glitches I got really angry 😡 when after an hour to reach the level the game won’t let me go pass... ### 3/5 — Broken AF *2020-09-11, version 3.0* Didn’t know it was 3 years old, but your game is so broken, can’t get past round 57 even when I kill al the enemies, closing the game just reset the round and ends with the same result ### 4/5 — Please help *2020-09-09, version 3.0* Very nice game! But when i get to level 50 my last enemy won't come. I've killed all the other enemies and then wait for the last one so i can move on to the next round. I wait and wait but i have no choice but to restart the game. All my hard work ends at round 50. Would love to play higher rounds. ### 5/5 — Please *2020-08-31, version 3.0* This game is really cool. Please, we need a update for this game, just do it developer team we really need this. ### 3/5 — A little boring... *2020-06-14, version 3.0* Cute graphic. Only 3 maps, neverendless wave so you can't rest or achieve something, a small selection of weapons. I think its be helpfull if I can zoom the map (little pieces, sometimes you can put you tower in wrong square). ### 5/5 — Très bon jeu *2020-04-16* Beaux graphismes moderne et simpliste, j'adore. On se creuse la tête pour toujours aller de plus en plus loin dans les niveaux, c'est Super. Après plusieurs heures (jours) de test sur les différentes maps, j'ai enfin trouvé Le moyen d'aller au delà du niveau 100. Je suis actuellement au niveau 107 et je pense aller encore plus loin... Je conseille ce jeu. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Tower défense trop léger *2022-04-13* Peu d’ennemie Peu d’arme pour se défendre Peu de possibilités de stratégie Une dynamique de « l’armée » prometteuse mais très peu jouable au final Marrant 5min mais on fait très vite le tour dommage . ### 1/5 — Protect tye tree *2021-04-11, version 3.0* A LOTS of bugs!! Dobt pay your monay in this game becouse its dont has stability ### 1/5 — Restore purchase doesn’t work *2021-01-07* Game is broken - restore purchases doesn’t work ### 1/5 — Pay to win *2020-04-30* c’est simplement un pay to win. Arrivé a la 40 e vague on voit bien qu’il faut dépenser des diamants pour avoir les pieces nécessaires a l’achat de nouvelles tourelles.. dommage j’ai essayé différentes techniques mais arrivé a un certain point c’est toujours pareil, pas les moyens d’upgrade donc on ne peut rien faire. ### 1/5 — Update *2020-02-18, version 3.0* Update the game pls. I pay your game 59฿ but not have something more time. :( ### 1/5 — More updates more maps more turrents ect. *2019-12-23* I would give this game a 5 star review if you guys would mke more maps turrents ect. I’ve been playing this game for a couple of years now and i love it. Sad to see the developers do nothing more with this piece of mobile art! ### 1/5 — Premium *2019-09-25, version 3.0* When you pay for premium. You get nothing but the ability to speed the game up. No new levels or turrets. These people are freeloading off the App Store. ### 1/5 — Однообразие *2019-08-24* Скучно, нет обновлений, однообразно, нет цели. Денег не дам :) Читайте другие комментарии, там всё правильно написано ### 1/5 — fena değil *2019-06-04, version 3.0* oyun güzel fakat paranın her defasında aynı oranda kazanılması oyunu stratejik açıdan yetersiz kılıyor. Ayrıca para çok fazla kazanılmayınca da her defasında aynı sonuç elde edilip sıkmaya başlıyor. Geliştirilirse 5 yıldız ### 1/5 — Gets stuck at level 50 *2019-05-30* This bug issue has been reported for a while but still no fix ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Perfetc1!1!!!111! *2025-07-05* The sounds 10/10 The gameplay 7/10 The maps 6/10 The entire game all in all 9/10 perfetc game !!!1!111!11!1!11!!!!!111! ### 5/5 — Perfetc1!1!!!111! *2024-02-12, version 3.0* The sounds 10/10 The gameplay 7/10 The maps 6/10 The entire game all in all 9/10 perfetc game !!!1!111!11!1!11!!!!!111! ### 5/5 — Un jeu qui m’a marqué *2022-08-01* En recherchant des applications sur l’app store j’ai trouvé cette pépite. En jouant au jeu j’ai découvert le plaisir du tower defense. Rapidement je me suis rendu compte que peu de mes stratégies ont marchés mon record était alors de 21 rounds. Après j’ai essayé les canons à 1500 ainsi que les freezer qui m’ont permis d’atteindre des records, mais après la vague 50 le jeu a crash et je l’ai delete dommage. ### 5/5 — Updates *2022-01-26* Can you guys update this to the new phone screen sizes? ### 5/5 — The best game ever *2021-11-02* The have a simple , beautiful design And have a good gameplay style ### 5/5 — New tower idea *2021-06-11* A tower who summon jeeps and have 50 health on level one 60 health and a little gun that do 5 damage on level two on level 3 the jeep become a tank in level four and in level five the tank become a railgun tank and It have 605 health and the railgun do 75 damage Prices of the upgrades:level 2 400,level 3 900,level 4 1500,level 5/max level 2005 ### 5/5 — good game👍🏻 *2021-06-04, version 3.0* very good user experience ### 5/5 — Very good game *2021-04-23, version 3.0* Noice game and idea but need more context. ### 5/5 — It’s simple and fun *2020-11-23, version 3.0* It’s a great game but there is lacking updates ### 5/5 — good game *2020-11-04, version 3.0* so far it is a good game, but i stuck at round 49. is that the highest round? if it is, then why if i close the game the best round not change? thanks btw. waiting for underdogs --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
