App Profile: Idle Fortress Tower Defense

Rating: 5/5

I’ve played hundred and hundreds of both idle games and tower defense games. I must say this has been the most enjoyable I’ve come across so far. The leveling system is very simplistic yet still rewarding and progress is easily achievable. Idle rewards take just a second to claim, and with the amount of in game diamonds you achieve through normal gameplay, it makes it a non P2W kind of game. It’s been my go to on breaks at work the last 3 weeks or so, and I’m still not bored and don’t see an end to my playing in the near future. Must add, when you choose to watch ads to double rewards, occasionally it will say ad not available, but if you swipe out of the app or swipe down and bring your accessories up, then enter back, the ad is available. No issues playing any ad and the rewards are worthwhile imo. Great game and can’t see what comes next! (2nd world, wave 39, and just got the gold events recently, making easy 70K gold twice daily, more if I watch ads!)

This game is very addicting but it falls into microtransaction hell unfortunately. If they put as much effort into the game as they did their battle pass and purchase options, then this game would be 10/10. My biggest gripe is that the difficulty scaling of the levels seems fine tuned to frustrate players into paying money. Most of the time when I lose, it’s simply because of the number of enemies. Level 14 has 7 enemies, level 15 has 8 enemies and level 16 has 20 enemies(not real numbers). This makes the only worthwhile upgrade attack speed. Which is a shame because there are a ton of cool upgrades, but I feel they just don’t matter because of the microtransaction oriented level scaling. I can only watch so many ads before uninstalling the game and I don’t feel like the game is worth paying actual money for. Such a strange catch 22. Devs need to make money and deserve to for their effort. It’s a great game. But from my perspective, they’ve sacrificed too much in the pursuit of money that the game has lost sight of its purpose. To be fun.

It took less than 10 hours be bring my attack power past 300million, health past 100million, and gold to 5 trillion multiple times without any cheats. Even at these stats it took 30minutes to beat the level 50 boss on world 6 at 5x speed. There are people on the wall of fame that apparently have reached hundreds of thousands of levels. If you were to ignore the time spent holding the upgrade button for minimal increases in power, the time it takes to get through each level, and everything else except fighting 1 boss per 50 levels(p.s. there are multiple bosses in between each 10 levels that take about 1/3rd the time of a level 50 boss to beat) it would take more years than the game has been out to complete. The game was only enjoyable up until level 1million attack when I realized that the enemies attacks and health scale to yours. A level 100 attack 100 health would take just as long to beat a world 6 level 50 boss if it has knock back fully upgraded and speed at at least x8.
