It takes a lot to get us excited about tower defends games on the App Store these days, and while Pirate Legends TD (Free) seems to have a lot going for it between its cool art style, multiple in-game systems (complete with tech tree) and more… It sort of falls in to the same trap that most tower defense games do in that it’s potentially really soul-crushing to spend 20 minutes on a level only to die at the very last guy of the very last wave.

Consequently, that’s exactly what happened in this video! Feel free to skip around too, as the first few waves aren’t very interesting. We do end up using every one of the “premium" powers that you buy with the in-game currency though, so that’s sort of neat.

From this brief playthrough, I’d say that Pirate Legends TD isn’t the best tower defense game I’ve played, but it also isn’t the worst. If you’re in the market for another TD to dump some time into, love pirates, and liked what you saw here… I say, go nuts.
