Can a tower defense game actually be good on mobile? It is. Mostly. The controls are simple and the action is fast. I played for three hours straight and my battery is dead. Totally worth it though.
The gameplay here is actually pretty neat. You drag your hero around to smash enemies. The physics can get a bit wonky sometimes. It feels tricky to aim at first. Once you get the hang of it, it is super satisfying. Just watch out for the spikes. They hurt.
Forget the fancy marketing stuff. The best build is usually just stacking attack speed. Health regen is useless if you kill everything first. I tried a tank build and it was boring. Stick to high damage output. It makes the grind much faster. Trust me on this one.
Here is a secret I found. If you pause the game right before a hit lands, you can avoid damage. It feels like cheating but it works. Also, save your coins for the sword upgrades only. Do not waste them on skins yet. Speed is key here.
The story is pretty thin but it works. You start at the bottom and climb up. The final boss is a huge pain. You need maxed out gear to win. The ending is a bit abrupt. It just says "To Be Continued." I am still waiting for the sequel honestly.
