this game is the bomb, I was one of the testers for this game and IMO it beats Fieldrunners and tap defense, in any single way you look at it.. the survival mode is amazing, it does get hard enough and you actually do need strategy to beat it, if you don't use the right towers beside certain other towers, or upgrade the wrong ways no way you ll get very far...also being able to zoom in and see how you destroy your enemies looks pretty damn cool, the animations are awesome and the sounds are great too... it takes a couple pf hours to figure it all out but after you know what towers do what, and what upgrades do and all that you ll be addicted,, give it a try..i really think you'll like it...

Now this looks like a great TD

Field runners is okay but not for the $4.99 price tag. IMO tapdefense is better than FR but this game really looks awesome. I wish I didn't waste my money on FR and bought this instead. Looks like I'll definitely have to buy this.

Yeah this game is awesome. I've been playing for a week now but still haven't beaten the last level. I die around Wave 15 :(

So I guess thanks "drschultz". Gonna try out what you said right now and see if that works.

I forsee some alteration to the Arrow Tower stats coming soon :) They scale up too quickly and Critical Hit is too powerful.

Is it okay if I can have a promo code? I'll post a review. And..I can't find the PM button. Is it because I'm new?

that strat will only work for so long, after 120 th wave, arrow towers just won't do it, you ll need to have very upgraded Tornado towers with a bunch of upgraded canons beside them...to beat the game that strat may work. but to get high up in the scorelist,, you ll need more than that...

The new version is awesome. I really like turning the menu buttons off because there were places where I have to zoom and pan to get rid of the menus blocking the places to build towers.

I would like to see new tower types too. And maybe some more maps.

Excellent news! I'm looking forward to trying it out once I get back to a WiFi hotspot. We're planning to take a look at all the Tower Defense games in an upcoming episode of The Appcast, so having a Lite version will make it easier for both of us to review it. :)

Not seeing the hiding of the menu icons. How do you do that???

Also, any chance of making the towers a different color? They blends in pretty well with the map that I have a hard time distinguishing them from the map AND each other.. :(

All you do is touch the temple thing at the end of the maze and it removes the menu icons. :) I found that very useful because they kept getting in the way.

Nope, you can't.

Thanks for the reply. Useful tip on the first reply, shame about the second....

Thanks!

Just saw that the 7citues update is live. Apparently now you can create your own path like fieldrunners and tower stars have gone up among some other things like a HUD at the bottom.
