Community Insight:
We give it a 5 star rating but its a fund game. This is one of the better defensive strategy games out in the market.
Its fun and unique but you should really lower the prices on the characters and make the power ups cost coins not valuable gems.
It's a pretty fun game so far. Graphics are pretty good for a tower an defense game. Just wish you had more characters to use other than the pitcher an batter. Good game nonetheless.
Fun and creative TD game. Definite download for sports fans.
The game won't let us in and keeps crashing.
This was a fun game but the updates started to make it go downhill.
This game is fun to play when you can but it often doesn't even work after updates. Frustrating and not worth the hassle.
We use to have this game and then got it back. After we got it back it just kept crashing.we loved this game but the crashing is annoying.
Looks great but we can't even get to the menu because whenever we open it it crashes.
It's not the worst TD we've played, but forget getting very far without buying a bunch of extras. A decent idea, but not quite good enough to use the space on our iPad.
Great game until it stopped working. Did you guys go out of business or something? Worked great and a lot of fun until about 2 months ago. Any time we try to play, the dang thing shuts itself down and out. What's up with this.
Worked really well until we reach "old world" stage. After that started crashing everytime when we clicked on "play" or "episodes" so we were no longer able to play. Then we deleted the game, downloaded it over again and restarted playing from 1st level. Now it's working fine but we're quite afraid of facing the same bugs few episodes ahead.
This is a great game with strategy but since the update it crashes all the time and can't complete the game.
A very different and unique game which used to be fun and challenging. However, every time we click on play or episodes, it now crashes on the iPad since the updates starting in November. It would be great to have these fixed so we can enjoy the game once again.
Good game but you will have to buy diamonds if you want to keep passing the levels.
We Can't play game, it crashes on splash screen.
THE DEVELOPERS DON'T CARE!!! THIS IS THE SAME GAME AS THE OTHER REVIEWERS HAVE NOTED!!! And, the developers obviously don't care since they've not updated it in years! So…don't bother unless you still think we're all wrong…then add your own miserable review.
We really want to play the game but when ever we go in the game it crashes even before we can see the loading screen.
It won't work for the tablets.So Annoying.
The game crashes right when we try to play.
We would love to play and review. All we can review is the .05 of a second the splash screen appears. Please fix this game. It looks interesting. Your reputation as a software company is riding on it. It's broken and we never see a update for this game. Fix it. Delete and review will follow if not corrected. Thank you in advance.
Paid 2.99 for gems to buy different characters, then the game crashed. Reopened the game, only to find that none of the other "tower" characters we purchased were available. There is no restore purchases button to be found.
The game shuts us out before we even get to the home menu.
We have an iPad mini in an iPhone 6 Plus and on both devices it crashes.
Though it sounds like an amazing game, it won't even open. And we mean you can't even play it. You tap on the game and then it sends you back to the home screen. Once they fix this, it should be pretty fun ( we think ).
App crashes when loading up. We can't even play the game.
We really want to play but every time we play it says welcome back then crashes.
Will not work on our iPod touch 5th gen we want to play we love the game pls fix.
Cant even open it, on a 5s, good thing we didnt have to pay for this crap.
Once again u get a game that entices you and you really like and give a great review for then when u give that review comes the lvls u gotta purchases premium items for and u gotta repurchase every time u play the same or different lvl. STAY AWAY.
Lame: super laggy Lame: pop-up ads every time you push pause Lame: tiny, imprecise close buttons on ads are designed to make you launch advertisers pages Lame: you'll never finish it without paying. Just because you've made the only truly novel tower defense interface in over a year doesn't mean you get to treat us like suckers. Demand better, clones! Stay classy, Dynamic Pixels, Ltd.
Game closes whenever "Play" or "Episodes" is pressed.
This is a grate game but ours craft is better.
Man : you really like this game? Us : yes,yes we like it!!! ;) Man : this game its nice? Us : of course,yes Man : ok…we're gonna download it.
A fun twist on tower defense games. Well made and a fun puzzler for anyone.
Fun game Easy to play and enjoy.
Good and new twist on tower games.
It's a game either you will really enjoy or hate.
We got to the third world but now it just shuts down when we try and play the first level of the third world. Would love to keep playing but can't now… Update fix.
We lv the game but at the start u get 2 units but the rest of the units you can get by paying we think you should earn them through levels we would give 5 stars but this problem needs to be addressed.
This is a fun TD, challenging and unique. The 3rd Chapter is currently not working for us so the rating could have been higher.
If you like Tower Defense Games this is pretty up there. We have been playing TD for 10 years on and off and we enjoyed this alot. The mechanics of this game are great, with the interaction between the players (towers) you can make. But we are giving this game 3 stars because at the 3rd chapter the game glitches out for us. This game has a very steep learning curve especially if you don't spend money on it(which we didn't). The end of second chapter is very hard and it took us a handful of tries. Try this game if you know TD games a bit.
This game is really easy at first, then it suddenly becomes nearly impossible. You can't really get anywhere without buying things with real money.
The "double money" bonus stops working less than half way on the clock. This bug has been there a long time we hope they fix it one day.
The game is REALLY cool we love this game but 3.99 is a little to much money for a sports game and those cheerleaders look dumb.
Weird concept but very fun…despite having to pay.
Liked the art, dumb premise, takes forever to get diamonds to upgrade towers.
Gets boring and it takes too long to upgrade. We would look elsewhere for a td game.
Game is fun but it cost $.99 to play past level 3. And if you want more "towers" besides the one, you have to pay for other "towers" which is lame. Now knowing this we wouldn't buy it.
It asks to purchase something after completing level 9. Whether we click to purchase it or say that we already have purchased it, it won't let us proceed.
