the start of a great series the main campaign is fun though on the easier side (first td from the studio so it fair they went with safer option of easier game) and there are so much extra content after the main campaign though enemies variety while good in the main campaign certain side level arent as good in variety

heroes:
fun and dont ruin early mission by having max level heroes if u ever replay them though the heroes feel very overlap with each other like it either slightly better or they are the same thing (apply to all type meele tank range and mage) it ironically have the most enjoyable heroes system (except origin cause they have special ability there)

tower:
-mage a bit underwhelming they dont have a lot of presence except against certain enemies but like even then there are way to kill heavily armour unit so to me it doesnt stand out
-artillery pop off when tesla though the other is still very strong but not tesla level and they have a decent amount of use and dont feel underwhelming
-barrack just go paladin barbarian kill fast sure but against armour or high health they are just gonna die and it also lead to no dmg since they are dead so most of the time paladin thought the entire mission actually do more dmg then barbarian plus paladin is THE WALL
-archer well go forest ranger it better than musketeer, ranger have poison dmg against most enemies and by pass armour (even aainst ghost) and the root can pretty much chain stun enemies and the enemies will dies of poison it just so much better and cheaper to set up than musket (musketeer like axe if compare to other archer is pretty good it just against ranger that make it look bad)

difficulty/achievement:
- not much to say but it on the eaiser side even in brutal
-achievement arent standing out as annoying or anything it nice to have and that it

overall 9/10 game fun to play and fun game to start as first impression for tower defense

this game is the peak of the first three game (wont compare to vengence or alliance cause their tower system was change) good variety of enemies good difficulty increase from the first game and both main and mini campaign were so much fun and unlike origin the enemies one the mini campaign enemies are different after the first level of each and are challenging to do (i know one mini campaign is a singular mission and it the weakest of all the mini campagign)

difficulty:
it balance though easy and normal feel very similar and brutal well brutal (sadly dont have impossible)

heroes:
- probably the weakest part of this game (cause i was spoiled by origin heroes and their speciall ability) they are still fairly unique but a lot of overlap with other and some heores are just bad to use (beastmaster guy especially)

tower:
- mages probably the one that stand out the least like most of the game can be done without mages and even the necromancer is use for it barrack element not the mage element so i just considered it as a barrack at this point
- artillery wow damn both are so good and they can solo certain level on their own without other tower is insane the mecha are better but the dwaarp do not underestimate it it still pack an entire instant kill drill
- barrack sometime over shadow by necromancer but they are have their uses even after necromancer is unlock the assassin is peak luck base so if u are lucky enemies go bye bye and templar it the definition of one enemies stall near forever
- archer once again one is significantly better than the other by a long shot (no pun intended) like wow the buff and dmg they could for the crossbow is so much that the other feel bad to use even though if we compare the axe to any archer tower that is not crossbow they are like very good but crossbow is just that insane

acievement:
- hate the luck based one which is just for both barrack (i spam so much assassin that the assassin one didnt bother me )
-hate the grindy one
-the rest are fun to get and some are a bit challenging to get

overall 9.5/20 (score a bit ruin by either hero overlap, certain mission can be solo by mecha and one luck based achievement)

hmm the game is good it just that the enemies variety seem undewhelming even in the mini campaign there a lot of reuse enemies from the main campaign it alway like it either twilight elves spider or gnoll( this one dont appear as much as the other two)

difficulty wise it fairly balance like brutal feel brutal and it feel fitting for each of diffculty

as for impossible it dont feel too much different from brutal if u get all upgrade (which u usually do cause u need to complete the game in brutal first so it trivialize a lot of mission) i kinda wish impossible not only increase the health and dmg but also add nmore enemies so it dont feel boring redoing the main campaign again

my fav aspect heroes all very unique there are some overlapped but usually it fine and of course flying heroes are broken and some like denas feel underwhelming but it still very fun to use them all

the tower:
- main problem is artillery feel underwhelming (and their achievement is the worst) mage feel more or less the same with prior two game definitely have their used but really u can beat all of the campaign without them (due to massive of true dmg sources)
- barrack is godly here the dmg and stalling they can do is just excessive do take a while to set up but once done they can deadass out dps some tower and lastly archer first time (compare to the prior game) both is equally good though longbow with their instant kill is slightly better (significantly better if u are lucky)

achievement
it either oh wow it fun to get it or just hell grinding for three day espcially the artillery and bug one it just horrible to farm for those (i hate grindy aachievement just to inflate game time)

overall 8.5/10 game fun and fairly difficult with great heroes to mess around with thouh variety is its weakness point with the enemies

the surface wasn't something i was expecting. very good game and if only they allow u to play as zag when confronting kronos would be the cherry on top.

recommend to play with friend so it more fun

personal biased toward this game but still good overall from an rts made in 2011

like the first game but more story focus which cause it to feel less open compare to first game however the rest is a huge improvement and why more fun

do it really need another review to say how awesome and good this game is

the game is very good and thank god for the godmode cause i wouldnt be able to even get pass tartarus with my own skill. say what u say about my experience with the game but the dialouge is amazing and i dont think that require skill to comment on. combat uh well skill issue on my part so i wont say anything about since i never turn off godmode
