    Really impressed, well done!

    I only played the first three levels on story and challenge mode and quickly checked the info screens but wow this little gem is fun! Art and music are stunning and the gameplay dips right into my love for TD games like Kingdom Rush... but this one here feels fresh and shiny. :D

    EDIT: found a bug in the Overgrowth level. One of the Pippops that got spawned wasn't regarded an enemy, so my team just stood there without attacking and I had to restart

    Ednan,

    Thank for replying. I meant nothing negative in my comment/question. There are many games that leave things open for a free route, & then did. I don't expect the world for 3.99 & want to pay for what I play. However, I hate buying a game that later is .99 or free & then has freemium elements. Looks great & everybody loves it so I'll try it out. Opinions later...

    Developers,

    Thanks for being involved!!!

    Sorry if my reply made you think you meant something negative. I understand what you mean, I fell for this many times.This one does not leave things open for freemium elements IMO. Of course one can change everything, rebalance etc. But they didn’t do it with King’s League, and I really don’t see it happening here, unless they do major changes.


    As a rule, I always check the IAPs in iTunes before buying, if there’s no “Pack of 100 gems” or something like that it’s ok in my book :).

    I've downloaded this app and played 2 hours.And now I got stuck at the 4th battle.
    I changed the difficulty "easy", but still hard to beat the scorpion-like boss.

    You have to just keep moving. Generally have at least 2 melee units (rogue / knight). When someone gets low health, move them and the scorpion will retarget another unit. Keep repeating it. When it's shooting poison, spread out. Once you get the hang of it, it should be easier. I noticed the main strategy in this TD is micro managing units. You have to know when to move the units away and keep them at the best position.

    Yeah the red marks are "telegraphs" of incoming damage, try to maneuver with that in mind. Really cool actually, that fight was my favorite so far

    L.Lawliet and KeKhan gave pretty good tips! Don't forget to customize your upgrades based on the party combination you'll use as well :) And use your active skills well! A well-timed-and-placed Regen and Starfall can help ease the battle!

    Thanks for the support :D

    Thoroughly enjoying it so far but I've really stuck to Knights (just beat the scorpion) and not used the rogue at all yet

    Quick question tho - how do you remove a unit? The tutorial says to swipe across the screen but I don't seem to be able to get it to work.....

    You select the unit, there is a thin bar underneath their stats (health etc.). Swipe from right to left there.
    It is kinda hard to see if you are on an iPhone.

    I switched to my iPad to play, it's way better.

    Stuck on lol 7 onwards on EASY to get the 3rd star. Wasted a couple hours on lvl 7 alone to get the last star without luck. Anyone done it? Game gets very hard even on easy difficulty. Maybe a tad to hard for my taste;)

    I haven't played past level 6 because of time constraints, but I agree it is somewhat difficult at times. Usually proper micro managing units helps a lot.

    I*think* we are supposed to come back later and get the inal star when we have our units better upgraded (or I just plainly suck XD)

    There is a dismiss bar at the bottom of the screen, in the middle along with your unit's stats and information. Just hold the button on the right and swipe left! :)

    Practice makes perfect! A tip about star points: you earn them from killing enemies and triggering early waves; and lose them if Lunalie is damaged. So a way is to trigger waves earlier, and minimize the damage dealt to Lunalie!


    What Ednan suggested works as well - get more stars in later levels, tweak your upgrades and party combinations - and go again with a stronger force :D

    I'm having a lot of fun with this one. It reminds me of Kingdom Rush but not a cheap knock-off. It has polish and unique gameplay.

    You can get all the heroes by playing, and completing quests from the tavern -
    You can buy "skins" for heroes with real cash that just change the look of existing heroes, no stat changes.
