Tl; dr: Rating: 9/10-Urgent Buy Recommendation Kingdom Rush Origins is a tower defense game developed with a lot of love and Passion and an extremely worthy Successor to the Game Series. At least for Friends of the Genre, the Game is an absolute Must: SCAR!
* Brilliant tower defense * four Base towers that you can greatly upgrade and specialize * many different Enemy types * many different Enemy types * many different heroes supporting one In Combat * 15 different Cards * loving and very detailed Graphics * no Micropayments Gameplay: Kingdom Rush Origins, the third Installment in the popular tower defense game series, is finally coming to the PC. And again, it is an absolutely worthy Representative of its Kind. The four Base Towers that can be upgraded three times and then further specialized, the little mobile Hero from a large Selection of Heroes who lets himself be freely controlled via the card, the many different Opponents, all give the Game what makes it. The Game remains constantly very varied, motivating and very captivating.
As in most Games of the Genre, you place defensive Towers on predetermined Pitches as attacker waves Smash through a predefined Path past them to their Target. When 20 Opponents hit the Target, you lost. If you Manage to beat back the Enemies, you get up to three Asterisks for it. With these Asterisks you can improve your Towers and Special Abilities between games, these Improvements then apply to all other Games.
On Defensive Towers you can find Archer Towers, Magician Towers, Raid Towers for Area damage and Barracks that involve Little soldiers in Battle. In addition, in some Maps it can still put special Towers with their own own Abilities into operation.
Speaking of Special Abilities, with these can be a small Group of Fighters spawn along the Way, who then fight with the Attackers, hurting and stopping them somewhat in the process. Lightning Can be sumed to hit all Enemies in a small Area. A third Skill is the hero chosen. So you can fall asleep with one Hero, for Example, opponent groups or hurt and slow down your Opponents with another, the Choice is huge.
Kingdom Rush Origins ' difficulty Is relatively high again. With a Large number of Cards later In The course Of the game, you probably need several Attempts until you have come up with a suitable Tactic. Demotivating, though, is never the Game. But one is often happy, if somehow you have just managed the Map, even if there was only one Asterisk left. You can replay the Cards as many times as you like to maybe get more Asterisks. By The way, the Difficulty in the Game can be freely chosen and changed between the Games. And those who have already collected three Asterisks everywhere are still waiting For more game modes in each Card.
If the Game has a Disadvantage, it is that you completely and totally forget the Time. Do not Play this Game if you have an urgent Appointment or set an Alarm clock Beforehand. Otherwise, from felt 20 Minutes will be very quickly real two Hours.
Graphics & Sound: The Maps are very different and very detailed. Almost every Map has something to interact with and click on. The Graphics are very pretty to look at, and wonderfully playful. Music and Sound Effects also fit very well into the Game.
Technology: The Game does not place great Demands on the PC and should actually run everywhere.
Game Time: After about 11 Hours I saw the End Credits in the Game. However, I only managed some Cards with Ach and Krach and Would well have to invest at least 10 Hours to get 3 stars anywhere. I don't want to talk About the Bonus Difficulty Levels.
Price: The Price of €12.50p is extremely cheap for the Game and should not be a Hindrance under any Circumstances. As many Hours as you spend in this Game you could actually have charged a higher Price. Even if the Game is the Port of a mobile game, you don't need to fear something like Microtransactions or artificial Timesinks. For the Prize you have been called up, you will acquire the complete Game.
Note: The Key to this Game was provided for Review purposes by the Developer/Publisher.

Totally awesome, four stars only because to get three stars playing on veteran for an appropriate challenge, the min 18 hearts can slip through your fingers suddenly after 15 mins of play...

Excellent game, but nothing new from previous games. Towers themes are not very original, and tactically inferior to previous games. Not worth buying if you're not after exactly the same game as before. Gameplay all in all is still solid.

All the Kingdom rush are as great as the others. A simple, effective and original defense tower! It stands out from so far away from all its competitors! Developed by a small independent Studio, it deserves to be bought at a high price! Buying it is supporting them to develop others!

Good gameplay, well dosed difficulty, lots of fun to play it as with other games of this Publisher. 👍 to note for dev: a bug encountered in the level campaign/blood career > a monster remains frozen in "knocked out" mode to wave 14 or 15 > unable to kill it, the game goes on indefinitely without any more enemies arriving > I had to leave the game.

For my Part, I like TD games. This Game Series is by Far the best I know in this regard! A Purchase is worth it.
Only the Leaderboard in the Endlessmodes seems somewhat implausible ...
Whether someone has cheted The bonus heroes are a good Idea, but Are only worthwhile when it comes to Offers.
Otherwise, I find these nice Additional Contents a bit overpriced to want to unlock all of them.

Great game, because:
- perfectly adjustable, but still challenging levels
- not needed inGame purchases
- great hidden details and jokes
- good mixture of “few powerful tower”- and “many crumble killer tower”-strategy
- you can use special rescue items like “ warp-spells”... or you realize that you just don’t have the perfect tower-constellation... so you can still just stay on the classical game play
The only lack I can see is, that the Kingdom Rush Flash Games on the PC are better than on an iPhone (cause it’s bigger).
