... from the industry's most credible critics

Monday, February 20, 2012

Gamezebo 9.0 Elf Defense (iPad)

Pros: Amazing production values. Tower defense gameplay is great. IAP system is well-implemented. Cons: Level design graphics may throw some off a little.

Monday, February 06, 2012

Gamezebo 7.0 Spice Invaders (iPad)

Pros: Attractive, fun presentation. Solid RPG features. A robust selection of gameplay modes. Remote save feature. Cons: Ads may turn some players off. Though most of the game’s presentation is excellent, towers and sound effects are lackluster. It’s Tower Defense 101 – don’t expect much in the way of freshness.

IGN 9.0 Kingdom Rush (iPad)

Archers ready... reinforce!

Pocket Gamer 9.0 Unstoppable Gorg (iPad)

A clever and challenging spin on the tower defence genre, overlaid with an elaborate science fiction schtick which doesn’t outstay its welcome

Tuesday, January 24, 2012

Gamezebo 9.0 Unstoppable Gorg (iPad)

Pros: Unique take on tower defense, embraces its style 100%. Cons: Insanely difficult at the default setting.

Gamezebo 9.0 Kingdom Rush (iPad)

Pros: Truly excellent tower defense gameplay. Spectacular production values. The lengthy campaign never feels old. Cons: No real option to fast forward the action. No online achievements.

Pocket Gamer 9.0 Kingdom Rush (iPad)

Brilliantly combining as stiff a task as you're likely to encounter with a perfectly pitched sense of fun, Kingdom Rush breathes new life into the tower defence genre, and has a whole lot of laughs doing it

Friday, September 30, 2011

Gamezebo 7.0 Jelly Defense (iPad)

Pros: Stunning graphics. Interesting game mechanics. Plot is both fun and goofy. Cons: Difficulty ramps up too much too quickly. The game could really benefit from a checkpoint system. Later parts of levels tend to feel unfair and frustrating rather than fun.
