### 4/5 — Amazing but needs screen adjustment update

*2023-12-01, version 1.1.14*

I’ve play this game on and off for years. It’s always amazing but sadly, they still have not updated the screen to allow wider devices like the new iPhones or Samsung’s or androids to accommodate the screen of the game (25% of the screen is missing due to how small it is on the larger screens of these devices)

### 4/5 — Fun game

*2023-03-29, version 1.1.14*

Really well done. I settled on paladin/cleric early for easier management

However the game is just too short! Let us buy new maps with 20 new levels for $3-5

### 4/5 — Needs a wider screen resolution

*2023-01-31, version 1.1.14*

Great game, just needs a wider screen resolution for the newer iPhones.

### 4/5 — Atualização urgente

*2022-07-26*

Jogo pago que parou de ser atualizado , falta melhoras os gráficos para pelo menos HD , novos níveis e amplitude da tela do jogo nos iPhones atuais para não ficar a tela cortada com borda preta. Jogo é excelente só deixaram de lado.

**Developer response:** Hi Betchty, thank you for your feedback! We appreciate your help for us to improve the game, we will take note of this.

### 4/5 — Great but buggy

*2022-03-02, version 1.1.14*

I love the game and the art style but the game crashes for me every couple of levels

### 3/5 — Pretty good

*2021-12-06, version 1.1.14*

All is well, but it cannot save across different devices, making it not a longtime gaming app

### 5/5 — Please make part 2

*2020-11-23, version 1.1.14*

Hi guys,

This game made me fall in love with your studio. I find myself regularly googling Kurechii hoping to find news of a sequel. I love post knight and see that part 2 is due soon. But please release a sequel to tiny guardians. This game is a masterpiece.

### 4/5 — Too short

*2020-09-27*

Very nice game. Plays well. But why only a single, very short campaign? Felt so disappointing when it was over so suddenly.

**Developer response:** Hi Lsrs-32, thanks for writing in to us! When this game was created, the team was incredibly small so we apologize if the game content was too short for you! We are currently working on some new things, please follow Kurechii on Facebook, Twitter (@kurechii) or Instagram (@kurechiigames), or join our Discord (kurechii.com/discord) to stay updated!

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2020-09-02, version 1.1.13*

Great twist on a defense game!

### 5/5 — Fun twist on TD

*2020-09-01, version 1.1.13*

No misleading in-app purchases always a plus. Solid buy 👍

### 5/5 — We need next part!

*2020-08-29, version 1.1.13*

I love Tiny Guardians! Bought back when in launched on my Galaxy. Recently bought here and I already beat the game. Love the gameplay and love the story line. Please consider making tiny guardians 2.

### 5/5 — Very nice

*2020-08-29, version 1.1.13*

I very much enjoy this game for what little parts I have played and I wouldn’t expect any less from a game made by Kurechii.

### 2/5 — I like the gamestyle and idea but no updates for

*2020-08-25*

long time, no new screen size support for ipad pro or iphone 11 pro and last but not least no german support, No, I can‘t recommend this games!

**Developer response:** Hi CroMagnonBC, we are sorry that you did not have a good experience in the game. We are releasing an update soon that should help with wider screen sizes. We will also take your feedback on supporting more languages into consideration!

### 4/5 — Already over???

*2020-08-08, version 1.1.7*

Pretty fun, but WAY TOO SHORT. :(

### 5/5 — Great game with some minor flaws

*2020-06-15, version 1.1.7*

I got this game for free but I still really liked it and would recommend you give it a try. The gameplay is fun an there are only a few small things I wish they fixed. Things like support for the new phones rounded corners and maybe a fast forward button. Over all though it’s a good little game!

### 5/5 — Amazing game!!!

*2020-06-15, version 1.1.7*

It’s an amazing game, no less.

### 5/5 — Класс!

*2020-06-13*

Отличная стратегия на пару вечеров.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — UI is way too small on newer iPhones

*2024-07-19, version 1.1.14*

Text on UI is barely readable. Don’t buy until this is addressed

### 1/5 — not usable on iPhone

*2021-08-12, version 1.1.14*

This game is not playable on iPhone, even my Pro Max. Playing with any skill requires significant micromanagement of your characters to move and upgrade them, but it is impossible on a phone screen to select the right one or even tell which you have selected before irreversibly upgrading. The text is even too small to read for some character stats. Clearly intended to be played on desktop or tablet, just a lazy port to phone. Deleted after a couple of levels, waste of money.

### 1/5 — Ui is terrible

*2020-09-02, version 1.1.13*

The interface is incredibly tiny on iPhones. It’s baffling why this hasn’t been updated ye

### 1/5 — Fun game but can’t unlock more characters (game is bugged)

*2020-05-22, version 1.1.7*

Short game, thought it would be longer. Will there be any DLC/more levels? I like the art style, characters, class system and I think this is a good card game. But I’ve got an issue with the game which is maddening. Don’t get me wrong:I do actually like the game and would recommend it HOWEVER you can’t actually the characters, at least for me, and it seemed possibly bugged..? 

You can either spend real money to buy more heroes or keep grinding (which is boring and really repetitive since you just play the same levels). I want to buy the wizard or hat ever it’s called but it costs 20 stars. After many hours, I’ve saved up 19 stars. But the game is bugged because I’ve completed COUNTLESS (lost count after 30 games) of those 'objectives' in order to earn stars so I can buy the extra character. Nope! No matter how many games I play and objectives I complete, the game refuses to 'complete' the objectives for me even though I’ve met the requirements and have completed them. They just won’t recognize that I’ve completed them. Also if you replay the earlier missions (like tutorial) you cannot skip the tutorial text even though it’s your 6th time playing through it. Let the game recognize that I’ve completed the objectives for the 10th time so I can earn the stars to unlock my desired character and I’ll rate 5 stars. It’s so frustrating and a waste of time when you complete an objective for the 10th time and the game won’t reward you for completing the objectives. So buggy, ugh.

### 1/5 — .

*2020-04-01*

Адаптируйте разрешение для iPhone XR

**Developer response:** Hi Zayac_Bro, thanks for your feedback. We will definitely take this into consideration in order to improve the game experience for everyone.

### 1/5 — Terrible, Small UI, Small Texts

*2020-03-31, version 1.1.7*

Terrible job, I don’t know why this problem hasn’t been fixed or even been considered by the devs of this game yet. Even after 4 years of this game’s release? The texts and the UI of this game are so tiny and small that I can BARELY read the texts on this game. So small, WHY? Why? Why? I am not even a person that uses spectacles or has any single issue of visibility or eye problem but this game and it’s developers are living in their own planet, they don’t care what the costumers suggests or criticize about. It’s been 2 years since the last update on this game? Why? Terrible effort. Terrible job. just TERRIBLE. Do your job right. Please . Listen. Do your job right. That’s all. It’s not that hard. That’s all we are asking in return.

### 1/5 — Rip off of IRONHIDE games

*2020-03-30, version 1.1.7*

This game copied everything from IRON HIDE games, 0 star for creativity

### 1/5 — Iphone X

*2018-01-08*

X지원좀해주세요 화면이 계속 커졋다작아졋다 반복합니다

### 1/5 — Always cushes at Felix outpost

*2016-02-18, version 1.1*

I love this game, but once I released Felix outpost of always crashes every time and can't progress in the game. I even reinstalled it completely and started from the start and still crashes. Please fix it with and I will give 5 stars.

I have iPhone 6s Plus.

### 1/5 — Enought

*2016-01-06, version 1.0.3*

STOP ASKING ME TO RATE IT!!!!!

### 5/5 — Marvelous

*2023-03-11, version 1.1.14*

An ingenious spin on the traditional tower defence game. Having the main target be the summoner who must be protected by her own summoned warriors is such a simple yet clever change that makes the entire entire experience so unique compared to all other tower defence games I have played in past. Tiny Guardians is well worth your time and investment. If your into tower defence, you’ll find yourself pleasantly surprised.

### 5/5 — Very fun

*2022-07-05, version 1.1.14*

It is very fun and the best game ever

### 5/5 — Good game

*2022-02-14, version 1.1.14*

Fun. Similar to KingdomRush.   Characters are fun. Need the words to be bigger where the names of thr characters are, etc. They are so tiny and i have an iPhone 11 pro Max.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2022-01-20, version 1.1.14*

Wish there was more to enjoy!!

### 5/5 — Fun and cute; in need of quality if life updates?

*2021-12-06, version 1.1.14*

I love this game and have found it on multiple platforms; but in my opinion, it is in dire need of a touch-up. Post-knight and now Post-knight 2 is out, but Tiny Guardians hasn't gotten anything new. Issues for me:

1. You can't bring new units to previous missions - makes doing older missions more of a chore than enjoyment, and takes away the fun of the challenge (can't use new "cards" on hard-mode either).

Possible solution: allow new units to be used on older levels right away, or maybe it's unlocked after finishing the main storyline.

2. The story is sweet, but once you complete it, besides endless mode, there isn't much to do/aim for...

Possible solution: New game-modes, or maybe a "portal to another world" situation, or Lunala does a new map with [Spoiler].

3. The game screen and features are copy and pasted when played on different platforms. So, on my iphone I can barely read some of the writing due to how the game fills the screen, or I can't see some of the time release circles because they are almost completely offscreen!

4. Targeting issues: the way the a.i. targeting works makes it impossible for you to "make" your units attack a particular enemy, so sometimes your units are decimated because the targeting system doesn't allow you to "prioritize" certain targets!

Overall a great, smoothly built game that is tricky to play, at times, but fun to pick up!

### 5/5 — Reunion Be So Sweet

*2021-09-16, version 1.1.14*

Visiting this game after a long hiatus of another hiatus of this game. I first decided to pick up this game again due to 7th grade nostalgia, and every time the game gives me the fun I so enjoyed then. From the charming art style and simple mechanics to the interesting challenges the enemies present, this game is a classic for anyone in my opinion! I just hope there is more from the developers.

### 5/5 — Cute and strategic

*2021-08-23, version 1.1.14*

Comparisons to Kingdom Rush aside, this is a very fun “reverse tower defense”. Guiding the main character through hoards of baddies is very fun, and in some fights it gets quite hectic, swiping here and there trying to herd your lil defensive units to safety. Sometimes it’s a little too hectic, and even on my large phone screen it’s easy to poke the wrong unit during a fracas leading to some minor frustration, but it mostly works well. 

The graphics are unfortunately the main reason people assume this is a Kingdom Rush clone. The character design definitely has its own style though, and some of the units are downright adorable. The level design is a bit less engaging (I wish I could zoom out!) but definitely serviceable. 

All in all this is a solid, unique game, and much more than it appears at first glance.

### 5/5 — THE EPIC TINY GUARDIANS

*2021-08-20, version 1.1.14*

Hi,

Everyone should do 5 stars even if they fail. I added in my mind the No. 1 game. Make the game even more better by adding new characters that are free so we can have amazing futures of game fighting, victory and more. I can’t wait for the next update (after I do the latest update)!

Keep it up! 🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼👍🏻 😎😎😎😎😎😎

Gamer IRL

### 5/5 — Loving all the games in this style 💪

*2021-07-31, version 1.1.14*

Can’t complete Overpass mission. Crashes at the end every time. Will update my review to 5 years once fixed. Using iPad 5th generation. Latest iOS 14.4.1

Update:
Restarting the mission with different settings help solve the issue.

### 5/5 — Cutest TD ever made! Pls update for iPad Pro

*2020-12-27*

Immensely cute and addictive game! Really enjoyed playing this game on my iPad. But please, could you adapt it to the new iPad Pro
