Probably best tower defense game (series) ever. Didnt like iron marines too much. Make another kingdom rush? It can be called Kingdom rush 2 or the sequel or even something like Kingdom Card Rush and make it a deck game. Maybe like Kingsom rush prequel and give a hint at what itll be like and then take some ideas fr...
Best game it's hard and easy and always keeps making me make strategies with my towers it would be really cool if you could add more towers or some kind of multiplayer where both players work together to survive waves but it's up to you anyway 5 stars would be cooler if you did one of the ideas I said but great game
Super fun. Easy to learn, but there's depth to figuring out effective strategies. Challenging but not frustrating.
Fantastic game, and much more affordable than the switch version... For that reason alone, I play here rather than on a proper console
Very entertaining
Best tower defence game out there period.
