Radiant Defense reviews and comments

A colorful and actually good classic Tower Defense Game, but unfortunately with one of the worst tower KIs I've ever experienced at a TD (TDs I've played for more than two Hours). In the case of good tower KIs, the Player can also refine the Strtategie With adjustable Target options, good Example is Defenders Quest. Otherwise, a Tower should attack a Target where it can do Damage and that is closest to the Exit. Simple KIs only take into account the Air Line, good KIs take the current Route to The exit. Radiant Defense does not matter about the two, nor can it be said that the Enemies are attacked with the shortest distance from the Tower. The Towers like to shoot at the exact Position of the Enemy, with small Enemies moving sideways towards the firing Direction they often do not hit the real Target and one has to hope that the Enemies are hit directly behind it. Once you've built Slow-storms, that problem reduces. Other There is a Fast Forward Waves can be repeated The Path of the Opponents can be influenced on most maps There is no Adjustable Difficulty and most often the first Waves are the most difficult, because the Slow-motion tower and the Tower to Increase in Revenue can only be built after the expensive Research lab conclusion To TD games, the Saying Of Hannibal Smith fits in with me: "I love it when a Plan works!." Unfortunately, I have to experiment here on some Maps at the Beginning, until the Towers can no longer help but implement my Plan. With a durable tower AI, it would be a really good Game. That's why my Thumb is only half facing up. I bought the Game in The Wintersale and recommend all Interested parties wait for the next Sale. More Recommendations (mainly Tower Defense Games): http://store.steampowered.com/curator/8896126-Gametests-and-Videos

For me, playing radiant Defense (or Robotek, which I also like a lot), it's kind of like playing on one of those old gaming machines as we still see in some bars or stores in the USA with bonus a super design and a soundtrack handed to the order of the day... Thanks to you for those moments when I really feel like making a small stop in an intergalactic saloon, between two flights in space, to give me a moment of relaxation... Small note to players who do not seem to appreciate the concept "free application/paid options": I do not know how many purchases on the app store have proven to be disappointing investments, and there is not my point, but I really like the idea of be able to explore and experience an application (especially a game) before investing on it... If I accumulate the total amount of all options and paid extansions available inside the game, the sum does not exde the €4.00! I've already bought games at higher prices and I didn't give half the time to spend fun on it before I even invested in one of these options. Thanks to the Hexage team.

... On my iOS devices, this fun Sci-Fi Tower defense game has been going on Since 2012, so it also had to Be on the Macbook: The Game is not the Latest-but it's still Fun (that's why it's time for ' ne Review now; o). Yes, the Game BEINHALTET IAPs: For small Money you can buy a Handful of Additional Packages. However, they are NOT necessary to Play Through (then it gets quite hard, but it is possible!). The big Plus with this Model is imho that the Player can Quietly test the full-fledged Software. THAT SPIEL itself is not a Contender for an Innovation Award but ONE GUT GEMACHT: Everything works, Interface & CONTROLS are neatly programmed, nix annoyed. The Level of difficulty is balanced, which saves Frustration (E.g. "Toy Defense," anyone?!). Module allows you to design the Path of the Enemies themselves, and has a Choice of Weapons with different Effects. The tactical Possibilities are not overwhelming but sufficient-and even after Years it is still Fun. The "Flow" is very good, and it is also as fit as it was in 2012: You can Concentrate fully on solving the Levels, to fit Musik/Sounds. FAZIT: If you like TD, you can definitely buy it here. But before you believe a Review-you can download it even better for free & selbst anspielen...; o)
