Minutes watching someone else play for me. ### 3/5 — Great potential *2020-06-10* Really good set up, great characters too. PVP doesn’t connect but there is an ai option. I don’t know if this is to do with lack of players (there is a lot of actives clans however) but it might help to add actual pictures of gameplay in the App Store description. Also random ad blocks, just plays the same ad on loop until you restart the app. ### 4/5 — Not sure if I’ll keep playing *2019-08-30* Started playing this game again to see if it has improved. I’m approaching level cap and find that the PVP is hopelessly unbalanced. My hero’s are level 49, but at of people seem to have level 70 chill turrets, or that worms and I don’t even get a shot it. I have never understood the mechanic where you just stand there getting smashed for the first few rounds. When I queue for a battle it waits 60 seconds and then goes to AI battle. Haven’t played a real person in a very long time. I guess there’s just not enough people at my level, on at the same time as me. The resources really limit your progress. I’ve heard that once you reach level cap, it gets even harder in PVP until you get the soul stones needed to max out your stuff. Not sure if I’ll keep playing. I’m just so far behind and it feels quite daunting once I reach level cap. ### 4/5 — Lots of fun when I'm drunk ! *2019-08-19, version 2.0.2* Spend a little cash for the time they took to make the game and it's going to be fun for a while as most games like this are , get a few months out of it and try something new lol . Good job keeping you busy . ### 2/5 — Decent *2018-11-30* Decent game. Developers keep it up to date. However, way to many Ads. Please reduce ads. ### 4/5 — 2018 Play *2018-09-09, version 1.9.3* Rather than still having enormous prices on in app purchases even though development of this game has ceased to exist for over a year why not reduce everything for the people who have played since the times when NinjaKiwi actually put some effort into promotion and development of this game. Ridiculous money grabber even though the only players still online started years ago. Reward for loyalty doesn’t go a miss especially when the developers no longer have any interest in the game. ### 3/5 — Content *2018-08-19* Tower keepers is a fun game. It has a lot of similarities to DnD and medieval games witch is a lot of fun. It can keep you busy for hours for sure so if you need to kill time this can be one of the games to do it. The progression system isn’t bad but they fault in this game is content. There isn’t any new content and isn’t been for over a year. Every week it’s the same thing over and over again when will we see new stuff maybe never and I believe that is what will kill it ### 4/5 — A little glitchy *2018-06-09* A little glitchy plus it kicked me out every time I joined so I deleted the game and redownloaded it, it still didn’t work ### 4/5 — Great game *2018-05-28* Can be played offline and different game screens load fast unlike a lot of other f2p games. Awesome ### 4/5 — Fun *2018-05-26* After Tactical Heroes was shut down I had to find another game. This one isn’t quite as good as that but so far I’m having fun. Wish the battles were more involved, if not entirely turn-based. ### 4/5 — Good *2018-04-29* Good game. I actually play it about once a day. But I’ve gotta say that how you can spend a whole 6 minutes just trying to grind in one tower on the first floor and then lose last second makes it feel like my life is more of a waste of everything around me then it was before. And trust me when I say making me feel even more worthless then I already am is no easy task. So good game, Maybe do something about the unbalanced towers, not sure though, could just be me ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — crappy p2w *2023-03-17* heavily monetized with a crappy energy system that limits you to 30 mins if gameplay before asking you to spend money ### 1/5 — Dead on iOS as far as I can tell *2023-01-28* Played this game late unfortunately. From what I can tell it’s just not playable at higher levels on iOS. One major component of the game seems to be potions, which aren’t included on iOS for some reason. I get them but have no way to use them. I see other players using them vs me in PvP Tower battles, and they seem to have powerful effects. So I’m missing a key piece to help in Hero, Boss or PvP fights and have hit a major wall in upper 40s levels that has only gotten worse as I have reached level 50. As the game now goes to 55 I can only assume it gets worse. ### 1/5 — Bad game *2020-07-11, version 2.0.2* Game cheats at 50 the AI has lvl 55 item and you can make it tell 55 ### 1/5 — Basura *2020-02-04, version 2.0.2* Pinshi juego más pinchurruento, no tiene nada de interesante esta basofia de juego. ### 1/5 — Good long term game *2019-08-04* Been playing for over a year. Developers are very responsive. Great player interaction. Into my second year and the game was getting better. Then Chat broke and they can’t seem to fix it. This guts the game. The Guild play and conversation with mates is what keeps you involved. Without it, it’s a time waster. ### 1/5 — Game client *2018-11-13* Every time I try to play this game it says to update my game client so I just reinstalled it but it still says to update my game client ### 1/5 — Great game ..... but *2018-10-07* Played thru to level 50, and I had fun... but repeated requests to fix glitches that give computer generated PVP teams level 55 weapons vs my level 50 weapons have been ignored. I can’t even get level 55 weapons until I generate another 500,000’ish experience points. Wasting your time trying to play through the most effective way to garner battle chests! ### 1/5 — Tarn of ninja kiwi is useless and unhelpful *2018-09-27* I can not speak lowly enough of arrons replacement, tarn My guild took a heavy blow (wont go into details) and tarn let the culprit off with a warning despite multiple reports against DARTICUS, Please, if you need help or assistance with this game due to errors or bugs you will not receive it from the admins of this game as they are lazy and intolerant to doing what is right, thank you ### 1/5 — Nul et barbant *2018-04-13* Trop de pub, trop de déséquilibre au niveau des personnages et des skills, trop de pubs, trop de farm, trop de pubs, trop trop barbant ... dommage l’idée était bonne ### 1/5 — So frustrating *2017-09-20* The gameplay is fine. The issue is the game will randomly lose your progress. You play for awhile, then come back later in the day and everything you did is gone. Incredibly frustrating. Even using the "backup data" button doesn't help. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great fun game! *2025-12-31* This is a great game that I think deserves a look by anyone. Great depth of play from beginner to high level, and also a nice campaign story with lots of missions a rewards. No paywalls to access all parts of the game, and no predatory monetization like you get in most new mobile games, but the game store is there if you choose to support the devs. Join this great community! ### 5/5 — Fun! *2020-10-11* I’m enjoying this game. It’s fast paced and there’s a lot to do. ### 5/5 — Tower Keepers *2020-08-14* Really fun game. It’s not play to win, like most other games with in-app purchases. I love the concept. Thanks, NK. Also, join my guild Team Pebbles. Btw, chat is fixed. ### 5/5 — Good *2020-07-02, version 2.0.2* Really good game lots of fun would recommend! :D ### 5/5 — Bug *2020-06-15, version 2.0.2* Great game to play when your bored. There’s a bug with the training button where I got a level 30 pirate when I’m only level 23. I was upgrading it when it just kept upgrading even though it was beyond my level. it stopped because I ran out of training points. Great game to play still ### 5/5 — Un super jeu avec une super communauté *2018-11-01* Ce jeu est top. On peut monter facilement sans payer si on suit les conseils des anciens. En plus, c’est possible de rattraper les anciens du jeu mais ça demande de la patience. Les match pvp demande une bonne stratégie. Pour ceux qui se plaignent de la pub pour 5€ elle est désactivée et ça permet de soutenir les développeurs. Bref un super jeu!!! Je recommande ### 5/5 — Addicting *2018-05-21, version 1.9.3* This game is addicting I didn’t think it was ### 5/5 — Fun but some bugs *2018-05-11* I’ve had a blast with this game but one thing that irritates me is how when you shut off, the timer on things doesn’t stay on while offline. For example, when I assign a hero to a heroic mission, no time passes when I log off. Another is crafting that this is a problem in. If you can fix that, then I’ll be happy:) ### 5/5 — Pls give back *2018-05-09* Pls give back my super rare pls **Developer response:** Hi there, if you are missing something, please get in touch with us on support.ninjakiwi.com so we can help! :)-SR ### 5/5 — Great game *2018-02-28, version 1.9.3* Fun game and you can still move in the story without having to pay! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
