  1. [R2] Kingdom Rush Tower Defense TD 3/5 · GB Awesome game ... leaves you with a sour taste: This game is very nice . The graphics are cartoon like , funny , nice . Good upgrades for your towers , a good variety of monsters to crush ... The only thing is : it s too short !!! You finish it in one day !! The only way the developers find to enhance the game durability is to do again the same map but with no heroes or with only a few of the upgra
  2. [R3] Kingdom Rush Tower Defense TD 5/5 · GB Needs more stuff 😐🤠⚔️: Enough said more towers more levels more free heroes
  3. [R20] Kingdom Rush Tower Defense TD 5/5 · GB Very high level of strategy and skill and love the art style: AMAZING strategy game!!! I want to complete the whole game ( veteran difficulty, all achievements, all heroic and iron levels) ! However, it requires a high level of strategy ( unless you use the strategy guide) and it is really difficult, which makes me like it even more! Also love the Art Style of the game , it is very beautiful!! Def
  4. [R23] Kingdom Rush Tower Defense TD 5/5 · GB Definitely recommend!: One of the best and highest quality tower defence games out there! A unique visual style and a simple but effective upgrade system. If you’re unsure about buying this series then try the games for free on “armor games” to get a taster.
  5. [R8] Kingdom Rush Tower Defense TD 4/5 · GB Great game: Great game, really addictive. Not 5 stars because progress on each level isn’t saved when the app is closed, would be nice if that was the case so I don’t have to complete every level in one go.
  6. [R11] Kingdom Rush Tower Defense TD 5/5 · GB Touch sensitivity on XS Max is atrocious.: This really spoils the game as the micro play is very dependent on the timing of every touch.
  7. [R36] Kingdom Rush Tower Defense TD 5/5 · GB You will love this game: This game is amazing and immensely intensive and I find myself coming back to it every so often, at the moment I'm trying to complete warrior challenge for everything and it is proving really difficult which is good for a challand and the lower difficulties are good for beginners, I love the strategy and the game doesn't force adds or need micro transactions to do well. 5
  8. [R13] Kingdom Rush Tower Defense TD 5/5 · GB Probably my favourite game: This was one of the first games I got for my phone and I still really enjoy it. It was great fun then and it continues to be. I really suggest getting it!
  9. [R15] Kingdom Rush Tower Defense TD 5/5 · GB Never gets old.: Brought this years ago, constantly come back to complete the story and over. Replay ability 10/10
  10. [R18] Kingdom Rush Tower Defense TD 5/5 · GB Awesome game🥰: I love this game, I played it years ago and then started playing it again. It never gets old
  11. [R29] Kingdom Rush Tower Defense TD 5/5 · GB Always remains great fun to play.: Genuinely good, I downloaded this game back in 2013 and I still enjoy it 5yrs in 🛡🗡🔮
  12. [R14] Kingdom Rush Tower Defense TD 5/5 · GB It is really enjoyable and free to play: I love this game for its humour and Easter eggs but I find that having a second set of upgrades to use my spare half of the games gems on would be good.
  13. [R22] Kingdom Rush Tower Defense TD 5/5 · GB an amazing game: this game is a very good tower defence game and i personally like it lots. but it is a bit pricey with the heroes in game so overall good
  14. [R32] Kingdom Rush Tower Defense TD 5/5 · GB Why are the others not free?: I understand that this was the first TD game and the others were better quality but why hide the TD game we all love behind money. The other games are amazing with the storyline going even further. If Iron Hide GS could see this I am trying to ask them to make the other TD games free or at least lower their price. But the games are good and that’s all I can ask for.
  15. [R34] Kingdom Rush Tower Defense TD 5/5 · GB Best TD game on the App Store: I love this game so much! Has a really awesome storyline with really cool characters and great graphics. Love that it’s completable without having to pay but the option is there to make things easier. Overall really awesome game and so addictive.
  16. [R1] Kingdom Rush Tower Defense TD 5/5 · GB Excellent: I find myself playing this so many times over because it’s so fun! I wouldn’t call it addictive as it is nice to play once in a while and doesn’t ping you notifications every five minutes. Great game.
  17. [R7] Kingdom Rush Tower Defense TD 5/5 · GB AWESOME!: I’m not one to play mobile game at all but this game is brilliant! Addictive, fun, strategic. Excellent. A MUST play!
  18. [R17] Kingdom Rush Tower Defense TD 5/5 · GB Best game ever: I have put literally hundreds of hours into this series of games: kingdom rush, frontiers and then origins are the absolute best tower defences you’ll play, if you can understand the strategy and the need to support barracks you’ll have a lot of fun slaughtering wave after wave. Best game ever
  19. [R30] Kingdom Rush Tower Defense TD 5/5 · GB Best tower defence EVER: This tower fence I found on PC but when I realised it was also on iOS I am so happy this is definitely the bast one out their.
  20. [R35] Kingdom Rush Tower Defense TD 5/5 · GB Awesome for a few days commuting: Completed the game after a few days. Brilliant game. If you don’t squander your earned gems until very late in the game it’s completable by using gems to buy a few of the biggest bombs in the shop for use on swarms and biggies. Ended up with around 3k gems still in the bank. You don’t need to buy any add ons to complete this game which is quite rare. Overall a tho
  21. [R37] Kingdom Rush Tower Defense TD 5/5 · GB The best game of it's category: I find this game very entertaining,fun,challenging and also you can play it very well without spending a lot of money
  22. [R5] Kingdom Rush Tower Defense TD 4/5 · GB Excellent...: Amazing game , got because I enjoyed it on an online website , beat main game, have to do extra lvls . Final boss is very good , feels rewarding to beat, fat boy bomb only dose 50% damage to final form boss , but reasonable Beating levels with almost perfect hearts is a bit challenging on later levels, beat the first half normal, second half easy mode, but was only able to get two
