Galaxy Defense: Fortress TD

Initially this game had issues with lack of Stamina. They have resolved that by making it more abundant if you’ve bought, and by sponsoring more events that you can play that allow you to store stamina (the event don’t use it), and still be able to play. It’s a good balance. I’m to getting near the top of the board, and the levels can be grinding. The progression for ranger side is frustrating and very slow to the point of being largely useless. The gear is also largely useless, where you acquire hundreds of pieces of junk gear you will never use. If you decommission it, you end up with a ton of tokens that you will never use to ‘refit’ your gear. I wish there were better ways to enhance what you have, rather than collecting tons of junk, but it is what it is. Overall the game is a good buy for the main game. Expensive, but I’ve been playing it now for a couple of month and it’s still entertaining (mostly due to the events at this point).

One simple rule change would help a lot. That is, no single draw of card offerings should be 100% new towers. There should always be at least one upgrade card in every draw set. Too often in early round, you get a set of cards that are all new towers, but the towers being offered are effectively useless until upgraded to at least level 2 or 3 with card upgrades. At that point you already know there is no way you will keep ahead of the enemies long enough to get some useful defenses set up and instead you just quit the round and start over. Beyond that, I will say this game is fun and keeps me coming back, generally. But it is grindy to the EXTREME. You fight your way through 4 levels in an hour and then hit one of the boss levels and it will be 2 weeks irl until you can level up enough to get past it. Then repeat. I know this is done intentionally to drive people to pay-to-win options, so I’m not holding my breath for it to change. But the balance could be slightly better. It’s so extreme. Also the towers could be better balanced. There are only a handful of towers that are actually worth anything and the rest I avoid like the plague. My ideal load-out: beam, hive, tesla, and disruption field. And then pray I get the good upgrades early enough in the round to have a fighting chance.

The game is hard for a beginner to pick up and start playing just in lvl 1 I only had about 5% of my hp left and it didn’t really help that every thing I did upgrade didn’t help since the moment I got it I would get swarmed by 100 more things to destroy so it made it hard to play with out almost being killed and the 2x speed says it’s unlocks at lvl 2 but no it’s just a way so you buy it even if you get all the best upgrades it makes it insanely hard to survive sure some people like games like that but for a mobile game it doesn’t really work if all your doing is standing still not even having needing to do anything at most you put this on your phone while you do something like playing a different game on pc or console just look over at it once a hour just to see that your dead in about 1 minute from then and even then I just looked and it says the age rating is 4+ who do you expect 4 year olds to even get pass lvl 1 your probably thinking the kid will spend money off of their mom’s card so you get free money even the starter pack from another review says they got stuck back at lvl 5 after buying it and it would take way to long to grind for to get pass the next lvl so good job you made one of the least fun free to play games known to man kind
