I love this game! The atmosphere it makes is amazing, the effects and sounds are used to great effect! As for the actual gameplay, its a bit rough. Trying to get past Mission four is near impossible for me, and i had to eventually resort to looking up a gameplay guide. If it wasnt for the difficulty spike, I would say this is the best tower defense game there is! There are no intrusive ads, which would break the amazing atmosphere, so thats a plus too.
Been a while since I've played, but it's a fairly good tower defence game, more colorful than any I remember, and sometimes kinda funny with the dialogue! The main irritating bit I remember is if a mission you're retrying has dialogue, you have to run through it all, every retry. Also, probably intentional, but things are somewhat randomized, so that you can play the same mission, in the same exact way, and have very different results! BONUS - my progress was kept after I switched phones!
This is an awesome TD game! Possible the best Android, TD game I've played!! PROS; Great graphics, Ability to restart wave(instead of the whole map, like other TDs), Ability to change path of the enemy, Somewhat funny story, No ads! CONS; Unable to select which enemy your turrets are targetting(Global or selected turret, I'd like to aim for the foremost enemy instead of enemy in the middle of the pack), Incoming enemy description doesn't show strength/weakness. Thanks for a great game!
2019: Though it leaves you wanting more, I have not stopped playing so that says it all! 2021: The visuals aesthetics are beautiful and the gameplay is enjoyable but compared to other TD games it now falls short - Cost of upgrades that are almost required to beat the game - Not enough playable stages for long-term & insufficient credit received - No detailed specs on items to know *when/where/on what enemy* to use so just left with trial & error Please update and expand this game!
The game is very entertaining and difficult. It has nice little vague tie ins with Radiant, one of my favorite mobile games, and has the same type of campy humor. Anyone telling you that the game is unbeatable without the packs is honestly either really bad or weak to in app purchases. I've beaten all but the last two without packs, and then I decided to buy them to support the devs. It's a difficult game, and it's very particular about turret and module placement. Learn to play.
Cool aesthetic and presentation, but made exceedingly difficult by locking extremely useful towers behind a paywall, which according to other reviews used to be free. If you're f2p it's absurdly easy to set up a good defense of basic towers that fails utterly because you didn't know it was coming and plan for it in advance. Wave retry would be nice qol if it weren't basically a requirement to frequently use if you want to avoid paying, and I don't want to pay away forced tedium and difficulty.
Since first playing something about it was always so difficult it was outright unfun. And I just figured it out. Beyond the blatant moneygrab nature of all the better tools, there's the fact that the credit payout per round is abysmal. It doesn't scale adequately, what can get you through level one just fine won't get you a tenth of the way through level three. There's also the lack of cohesive understanding for the units and upgrades, aka we need to see how much they do in the first place.
A decent game, good art, and zero target control. I can make 5 turrets and have all of them miss an entire patch of enemies because they're all focusing one target they keep missing. It's an essential feature in a TD game that this one is missing. Until that's added, this is the most frustrating targeting experience.
Nice idea, relaxing sound and graphics, but I don't relaxe so much because I can't beat mission 3. It's frustrating. It's thrice I downloaded the game in a year, last time I bought 2 packs and still cannot beat it, I'm uninstalling it and I'll only come back if I see a decent update that modify the situation. I'll keep an eye for updates because I really like the idea and the concept, but I can't play it, so, why waste my time?
super nice concept of tower defense. i love the music, graphic, animations, and mechanics. the bad part its just there is no way other than paying with money to buy some towers that is needed to provide more help on levels. also the tutorial on how efficiency and score works is too small. but really its great td game.
This game has really nice visuals, a clear interface and good variety of turrets and enemies. I rate it only 3 stars however because it's frustratingly difficult. I understand they want people to purchase the upgrades, but as someone who's bought every single one I still can't get passed level 4 and I've tried countless strategies. The amount of money earned to get better defences needs to be increases by around 15-20% imo or weaken some of the enemies. Just makes me want to give up
The game is good, i love tower-defense games and this one is one of my favorites. You can place walls in the map to change the direction of the enemies, and also there are lots of towers to choose from, each with its own purposes. There is a story too! And there are jokes in the story too so you won't get bored. I just hate that you need to pay for the other contents.
I was able to brute force most of the levels people here are complaining were too difficult without paying (e.g. mission 12), but their point still stands that if you don't pay for better equipment/towers then the game will either be too difficult to be fun, or very grindy and trial-and-error based. I did enjoy all the levels that got difficulty right (read: were fair), though, and the graphics are wonderful.
Amazing! This is a unique tower defense game, not only because of it's bright colors but also how it will force you to really think about your strategy. The game isn't impossible without upgrades, but it sure does help. I've played it for around 5 years and it never gets old (at least for me.) I do hope they can make a follow up story and maybe add a few more levels. Or maybe add a feature where players can make their own levels and show it off to the community for others to play.
It's amazing and it's funny. But connecting my ps4 remote don't work I hit all the buttons and they don nothing... Well it does work when I hit right and left on the D-Pad but that's it could you make keybindings it might help alot. Also is there gonna be more levels and towers this game is fun. Heck a 2 player mode could work 2 with 1 player being aliens and the other being tower placer.
In-depth, well plotted, paced, challenging, imaginative, and absolutely addictive. I have played every map through and through, countless times.. Puzzling through each wave is a stimulating lesson, and getting good is just so fun. Highly recommend Radiant Defense! Baught every expansion like 4+ years ago.. still play this little gem from time to time. Profound work Hexage!
I love this game. As many people say, there is a point where you really do have to buy the upgrades. However, I would not say this game is pay to play where you're constantly having to buy stuff. All of the upgrades are only a few dollars. If they charged it up front to download, I would pay it. Instead, they basically let you try the game first. If you have fun with it, then buy the upgrades to really enjoy the later levels. It is a beautiful and well-designed game. I highly recommend it!
I bought the packs to install the advance tech. materials or whatsoever and that 2yrs. ago from now. It's not really helpful when you reach the level where you have to beat the pink giant alien pig(I forgot the name lol).It's pretty useless when you set up some cannons for the fly aliens just to slow them down then it's no use for that giant one!so I got pissed up and uninstall the game. Problem solved!😎
Great tower defense game. Decent variety of towers and great variety of enemies. The module system allows you to edit the map as you play for most levels for a neat new dynamic. There is one fatal flaw, however. The tower AI is absolute garbage. The player has no access to targeting options, yet the towers seemingly can't stick to one. This leads to an unfortunate reliance on RNG if you want to play conservatively.
