End Missions Impossible

So I got the game a few years ago in iPad, then a few weeks ago in iPhone. I normally end up watching a tutorial because it’s too hard to just guess what towers you’ll need, but when I got to mission 12, the only tutorials are ones with the $1 packs and I don’t want to get them, so basically it’s impossible to get past 12😭 I really wanted to play the whole game tho (4/5 stars cause the game is still good tho)

Turning Towers

Solid game overall and the $1/pack is pretty reasonable to unlock the full game.

Only complaints are that towers will randomly "wander"/spin and are often looking in the wrong direction when enemies are coming. So these towers need to rotate around to attack, but some of them do it so slowly that enemies get through because your moron tower is off looking the wrong way. So frustrating and it's not something that the player can control.

You also can't set "preferred targets" for your towers as you can in similar games. The result is often seeing these slow turning towers "chasing" enemies while ignoring closer oncoming enemies. Again, this causes enemies to get through your tower range without being hurt significantly.

Dev, if you read this, turn off this "searching for enemies" action towers do when idle. Just have them face forward or let the player chose their resting direction. I'd also just increase the speed that flame/poison towers spin.

Pay to win

The game is fantastic in the beginning! Good variety of enemies and weapons to fight said enemies. Being able to block the path so the enemies have to take a different path adds a whole new dynamic to Tower Defense games! Once you get a few levels in however, the game gets exponentially harder and encourages you to buy stuff with real money to progress. I don’t want to support this kind of mentality in gaming, so I’m deleting the game now instead of paying to get further where I assume they would force you to pay again. It’s a bummer because the beginning was so great.
