![]() The music is also a lot of fun to listen to and is actually, as a whole, much more enjoyable than what I hear in quite a few commercial games. The graphics aren’t extremely advanced and are basic 2D, but there was a lot of care taken in spriting everything in this game and it shows. The gameplay is absolutely top notch, and the graphics and sound are pretty impressive for a game of this kind. Click to enlarge.įor a flash game, Kingdom Rush is exceptionally good. However, if you are looking to beat each level as well as the two challenges for each and every one, then you’ll be busy for a long time as you will essentially be increasing the length of the game by three. If you are only playing to breeze through the game’s story then you won’t be playing for too long. Kingdom Rush isn’t a terribly long game, having only about twelve or so levels (plus two premium levels that you must pay to unlock). Fully upgraded meteors gain the awesome ability to not only rain down longer, but can randomly hit all across the map as well. Max out your reinforcements and they will become tough soldiers gain the ability to throw spears at flying enemies. Most upgrades will just increase the power and range of your towers, but the upgrades for your meteors and reinforcements are much more interesting. Whenever you beat a level, you will be awarded with upgrade points which can be spent on, of course, upgrades for your towers and special powers. Ideally, you will want to finish levels with all twenty hearts which allows you to unlock bonus challenges for each level. When you lose all twenty hearts, it’s game over. Some larger enemies will force you to lose more than one. You have twenty hearts that you have to protect and, whenever an enemy slips through your towers and reaches the end, you’ll lose one heart. The objective is to, of course, keep the enemies from reaching the end of the road. This power deals an insane amount of damage to anything it hits and, chances are that unless you are using the power on the toughest enemies in the game, you’ll kill whatever you target in one go. They have a short cooldown and can be used very often, but reinforcements are initially quite weak and are nothing but a very brief stalling tactic at the start of the game (though they work wonderfully when paired when soldiers from barracks).Īnother power you can use, which has a sixty second cooldown, is the ability to rain meteors down upon your opponents. ![]() If your towers are having trouble keeping a wave at bay, you can call upon reinforcements to help you out. Once you start firing homing missiles across the map and light entire roadways on fire, you know that nothing’s going to be messing with you! This will change when you max out the upgrades on a level 4 cannon though. These towers are perhaps the most lethal in terms of raw damage, but their slow attack speed balances things out so that they aren’t terribly overpowered. ![]() They’re a very versatile (and helpful) tower towards the end of the game.Īrtillery cannons are essentially just very large cannons that deal massive area of effect damage to enemies. ![]() Mage towers are pretty uninteresting early in the game, but when you unlock their final upgrades, they become very enjoyable and helpful towers that allow you to create giant golems, turn enemies into sheep, and shoot death rays. Have a stretch of road where your towers deal lots of damage? Throw some barracks down to keep the enemies there longer!

When barracks are upgraded, they train stronger soldiers. They can hit flying enemies, which makes them a valuable asset when waves of flying baddies appear later on.īarracks train crews of soldiers to block roads and combat any enemies that come within range. You get four different types of towers (archer towers, artillery cannons, barracks, and mage towers) which all serve different purposes and can be upgraded as you progress through the game.Īrcher towers are, naturally, posts that shoot out a steady barrage of arrows at enemies. Kingdom Rush is, as a whole, a pretty standard tower defense game. Crystal Defenders, Dungeon Defenders, and Plants vs Zombies are by far my favourites of the genre, but a little flash game known as Kingdom Rush has been giving all three a run for their money. I’m a big fan of tower defense games when they are done right. ![]()
