    Yes, there are the two challenge versions of the levels once you 3 star them.

    I've played all the KR games so no amateur at the sort of tactics and strategy necessary and I'm still around 20 stars away from the 75/75 marker for Veteran. If this guy really did finish everything already as a noob to the series, impressive (well, perhaps less impressive if he used the gem store to push himself over the edge, but that's a personal choice issue :D)

    Achievement Help

    I'm struggling with a few achievements, anyone got any advice?
    1. 'Have your soldiers avoid 50 blasting spell explosions'
    How do you even start with this one, and what level? What do these even look like? Do they mean mushroom explosions?
    2. 'Give regeneration 25 times to the same soldier'
    So this is with the forest keepers? No idea what this achievement is talking about. Do they mean healing? And what soldiers? Any?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated! Cheers :)

    Hi. I bought this game on the first day it was available, and I just realized that I bought the iPhone version and not the HD version. While I have no problem buying it for the iPad, I don't have an iPhone, which makes that purchase unnecessary. Is there anyone I can talk with regarding that issue? Also, is there any update expected so that if you hit the home button during a game, the level you are on does not reset? I have had a few times where I was on the last wave on a level, and I have switched apps either by my own fault or by my child's, and it is kind of a downer. Any assistance with both of these inquiries will be greatly appreciated. Happy Thanksgiving to all!

    Just contact Apple through customer support and get a refund for the iPhone version. They're very good about that kind of stuff.

    Yup there are 3 difficulties. 2 challenge stages for each map. Quite a bit of content compared to most tower defense games.

    I saw that too, and I paid for it thinking it was a great deal. It gave me 3 characters. I felt ripped off.

    It is a one time deal only, but it only gives you a few characters. It is misleading, to be sure.

    Ok thanks for the reply.
    Will buy this on my iPad and Android phone.

    I hope they will add an endless mode to this game.

    Before I buy this on my phone does anyone know how this plays on phones ( Because of smaller screen size )

    On a different note, still waiting for TAs review on this XD

    The first two Kr have 22 levels and 1 endless mode. I would assume they will eventually release 3-4 updates leading to the same amount of levels.

    Good to know.

    I still haven't got ALL the stars in KR and Frontiers yet also, so enough to do in the coming year. ;)

    All 3 KR games play excellent on a phone.

    I played chata since the beginning because she looked the most new and unique hero in this version, now I've finished the game with all missions and challenges in veteran, all with her. I also prefer catha over vez and the big tree..she is basically a permacrowdcontrol hero, the 8 second stun of her power is one of the most powerful ever imo, and she gives 4 minions with good life and who can stun for 1,5 sec with each attack.. She tanked for an entire wave 2 purple giant completely alone one step away from my entrance and finally I've men aged to killed them with 2 thunderbolts.
    I understand that early she is useless since she does zero damage but once at lvl 10 she is une if not the most powerful hero in the game imo.

    Good to know, will defenitly buy this on iOs ( iPad ) and Android ( phone ) to support the devs. Might even buy a hero if I really enjoy the game, which I most likely will.

    I actually disagree, although dissenting opinions are always welcome because they often bring fresh perspectives. In this case, I find the gameplay different enough to feel fresh, yet familiar enough that I can dive right in. Your point about the heroes is a good one, however I personally don't mind spending $7-$10 on a game where the consumable IAPs are truly unnecessary.

    Heh, not seeing the fresh here. It was an opinion that A) we've seen multiple times already (and nicely refuted with supporting examples by many other posters) and B) the sort of shallow kneejerk troll(like) post any one of us could have written without even looking at more than the store's app description.

    More often than not, people using the reskin/clone term as a pejorative descriptor do not know what those terms actually mean and have either not played the game in question at all, or dipped their smallest toe in the water for far too little time to have formed any solid opinion beyond whether *they* personally like the game or not, yet declare they understand the game far better than people who have played it extensively for days.

    Given the dude's post count, I went with the "troll" conclusion and added yet another worthless poster to my ignore list.

    -----

    And just to make sure this isn't completely non constructive, the real issue with people lobbing around these shallow critiques is they display a lack of familiarity and understanding of the game. KR, KRF, & KR are all built around the same underlying mechanics and enemy types. But to lump the myriad iterations with these mechanics as interchangeable is, at best, ignorant, at worst, simple trolling of a fan favorite. It's like trying to say a Paladin is just a reskin of a Fighter in D&D - same underlying mechanics, same ruleset, even similar meta role, but not the same in how they play or fit into the larger party mechanics.

    Aye it gets boring seeing the same topic every few pages as new people join and don't see it's already been discussed.

    Anyway finally got the offer for all heroes....I don't really need it anymore but purchased it anyway as KR games are one of the few games that make me want to complete it because I enjoy playing it that much. I'm sure I'll use them if I go back to try everything on veteran and if they add an endless anyway.

    Say I bought a hero in this game, decided to delete it then re-install the game. Is there a option to restore purchase to get the hero back ?

    I want to know this because if I get the all heroes for a special price offer I might buy it.

    Help will be very much appreciated!
