Zombies vs. Towers

Honestly didn’t think much of this game when I started, but after merging and mindlessly killing zombies, I’ve had an epiphany. What if the monotony of my life can be broken? What if I’m not doomed to a life of rinse and repeat? In the game, I have maxed out nukes that can be spammed every 4 seconds to wipe out hoards of undead. The option to nuke is completely mine and that got me thinking that I need a nuke option in real life. Maybe instead of waking up and going to work everyday, I can instead call a nuke of passion and give a big screw you to my boss. Sure my nuke in real life is horribly weak and rn the only thing I can actually nuke is toilets. But what if I level up? I can nuke a toilet as long as I have cheese since I’m lactose intolerant. So while being safe, we are looking at maybe 3-4 ruined toilets a day. I need to up my firepower with some beans or laxatives and then maybe we could talk complete porcelain obliteration. This game has truly given me hope! Ever since my ex wife took the kids, I thought I was powerless. Now I know that all I ever needed was a stronger nuke. Thank you developers for giving me the strength to keep on keeping on. Time to nuke those workplace toilets…and maybe later I’ll watch the last season of stranger things. Got spoiled on fb tho…rip Eddie. Also, does anyone have any recommendations for how to deal with tap strafing while on console? Darn pc players always move so unpredictably when I play against them on my PlayStation. Is there a version of tap strafing for us? Probably the wrong place to ask since this isn’t a Pokémon go page, but thought I’d ask anyways. Alright I’m going to bed now. Love you babe, see you at your boyfriends house next week :)

It seems like I lose to a bug or glitch way too often. There is a spot in the bottom right that the zombies pile up on and break the walls down and the tower will not shoot at them. They are in the range and the tower has ammo but it just won’t shoot them and I either lose or I have to hope the nuke hits them. The bottom middle towers seem to have trouble shooting things too. They just won’t fire sometimes. The workers get stuck on a tower while trying to put ammo in it and I will have to restart the game or play with one less worker until I do. It would be nice if the nukes target a large group instead of just one zombie in the back and there is a whole hoard of them 5 feet away from it. I’m not too far yet so I don’t know if I unlock more towers later but the ones that stick out on the corners get overwhelmed frequently whereas the middle sections have coverage from 4 towers. I wish I could just sell back those sections that I bought because I believe they hurt more than help. I don’t know why it says the towers have like 9 guns when it will only use more than one if it is shooting in a totally different direction. I wish the nine guns would also shoot straight too so it would be more efficient. Some upgrades shouldn’t cost gems either. The worker ones are balanced enough but it feels like a waste to spend a gem or two on a tower upgrade or a power up upgrade that does basically nothing when I could get a whole new worker for the same price. Overall the game is ok but it needs a lot of work.

After playing this game for about a week or so, I pretty much lost interest in it. That’s not to say it’s not a fun or interesting game (it’s even slightly addicting at first), but it loses its initial appeal after you get the gist of everything down. The walls and towers stop changing appearance after a specific level, which is probably a bug, since the preview of them upon completing upgrades shows them to look different. A huge bug that takes away from the tower defense experience is the fact that you can simply hold down on a tower and move it wherever DURING the attack! This is a cheap way of winning, and I know that I could simply not do this, but why should I when the upgrades rely heavily on gems? Coins are easy to come by, since I don’t need to upgrade the walls that much due to the fact that I can move the towers around outside them. Speaking of the attacks, they get a little redundant. I think having 10 or so waves and then a big boss attack would be nice. Or have different areas of the world you travel to once you beat a certain wave level, just to switch things up. Maybe change the appearance of the zombies that live in a tropical area vs a metropolitan area. Overall, I like the tower upgrading aspect, as it’s unique to a tower defense game. The merging is a bit finicky with some locations of towers, but it works. Maybe spread them out more so it’s easier to tap and hold them. Most of these suggestions are aesthetic, but I think they would help with the overall longevity of the game with the user. If ratings were on a 0.5 scale, I’d give it a 3.5.
