The Wizard's Tower

The Wizard's Tower is a great little game suited to everyone with interest in Tower Defence. Looking for your first Tower Defence game? I recommend. Fancy yourself as a battle hardened Tower Defence master? You will sweat trying to 5 star these levels on Insanity difficulty. You are given a sizeable range of different options with regards to different turrets, which then give you the option of several spells, both single target or AOE options, which interact differently depending on what other towers you are using. Regardless of your play style, whether you think attack is the best defence and you want full damage, or your a critical thinker and you want to slow your enemies and bide your time, this game has you covered. There is a lot to learn about this game through the different uses of towers and how different towers and abilities interact with different spells. The different levels layout can also have an effect on what i considered to be my best set up for my style, keeping the need to alternate different spells and ensuring every level provides a different challenge. It can take a few rounds to work this out, but with tight, challenging level design, it's a game that keeps…

In the "Tower Defence" Genre, The Wizards Tower (Henceforth: "TWT") is unique; though it holds many common elements with other "Tower Defence" games, TWT is unique in that it is entirely reliant on the player, controlling the towers, to successfully clear a zone. As with any game in this genre, good tower placement and upgrade consideration are key to progressing, with the use of "Greater spells" adding an extra layer of depth as well as a sense of power when something goes right. Overall TWT is a game with plenty of competition but is well executed and unique enough that it can stand out from the crowd and keep attention on itself. If you enjoy Tower Defence games, then this is a game for you.

Fun game with a nice twist on the tower defence genre, giving the player a more active role in controlling their defence. The selection of different towers is nice and allows for different playstyles. (Played before Steam release)

Actually a great tower defence game!!

The Wizard's Tower is not for beginners to the TD genre. 11 hours game time played, mainly trying to get achievements, "beating" the game took roughly 6 or 7 hours. Achievement progress, you'll see a sudden drop. This is because of a difficulty spike at the start of the game I believe by level 4 map 1. As of this moment I'm 3% of the 6% achievements achieved in this game. Game Play: Select unique tower spells prior to enter the level. Build generators and towers while in the said level. Meet the minimum challenge requirements, EX: "Only use 3 generators, 2 fire towers, and 2 lightning towers". The towers attack via you clicking on the enemy in an area that's within range of your towers. You have to change which element you have selected, in otherwords if you keep the key binding the same you'll be pressing the 1,2,3 buttons alot. You have unique greater spells, that allow for such things as Morphing the enemy, reset cooldowns, slow down the enemy. Graphics: They take a while to get used to and at times it can be difficult to get a good idea of the terrain. Overall this is a solid TD for the price (I got it on a super sale), but it is in no way a friendly TD game for new ind…

I have been enjoying this game so far. it is a challenging, satisfying tower defence game that has left me frustrated at my own incompetence. I'd recommend giving this a go if you enjoy tower defence games, fun 8-bit art, or blowing up goblins.
