ok these guys certainly dont need me to jerk them off after 18 years and hundreds of thousands of units sold. I will just say that I was worried that it would be too simple at first. You just get the tower and 3 upgrades. The skill comes in pushing your luck and getting your hole stretched for it like many other TD games. Like some, you get more money the more money you have, which makes it the kind of game where you let out a massive sigh of relief when you didn't panic and put that tower down. This is fun. Also the towers on the same elevation block each others radiuses so you need to think carefully about the most valuable places to put them. I think this is why people call this the purest tower defense game. No real gimmick, not even really a lot of enemy types or towers. it's just you and the placement order and timing and selling and upgrading and praying to god that little ♥♥♥♥ …

A classic tower defense game that still gets the fundamentals right. The variety of towers, upgrades and enemy types makes planning your defenses genuinely satisfying, while chasing more efficient solutions gives each map plenty of replay value.
Defense Grid: The Awakening – packendes Tower-Defense-Spiel Bewertung: 4,5 von 5 Sternen Defense Grid: The Awakening überzeugt mit abwechslungsreichen Karten, cleveren Strategien und einem angenehm hohen Suchtfaktor. Die verschiedenen Türme lassen sich sinnvoll kombinieren, sodass jede Welle neue taktische Entscheidungen erfordert. Die Kampagne bietet viele Herausforderungen und motiviert dazu, die eigenen Verteidigungen immer weiter zu verbessern. Ein zeitloser Tower-Defense-Klassiker, der auch heute noch viel Spaß macht. 4,5 von 5 Sternen ★★★★☆
补票买的，十几年前上大学在学校论坛下载了盗版，从此一发不可收拾，盗版已经全成就了，现在重新打一遍。然而，正版没中文，真特么恶心啊，实在不理解，是被偏爱的有恃无恐吗？还是觉得中国玩家都很便宜？
Excellent jeux de défense de tours. Bonne histoire d'invasion d'alien.
Absolute classic

il più intrigante semplice ma se vuoi complesso schema di gioco
Trop dur et pas asse varié
The best tower defense of all time. Worth the money, plus the second game in the series is even better!
[h2]Hidden gem моей библиотеки стим. [/h2] Долгое время обходил её стороной, визуально отталкивал. Но попробовав - практически сразу втянулся. За неказистостью скрывается проработанная и отточенная механика игры, когда часто балансируешь на грани, но все же удерживаешься. Мне понравилась возможность, что можно отменить действия без перезагрузок, что удобно. А так же отдельно понравилось, что каждую карту можно пройти в разных режимах, добавляя реиграбильности и настраивая сложность.
The best tower defense game I have played
