Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
We first played this game when we were around 11 years old, and we are now 21. We just love it. We always come back to this game, and we would love if new levels came out one day.
This is our favorite game of all time. It oddly helps us with our anxiety. Ive played the entire thing 5x now. Please make new levels!! B.
There we use English to express our opinions. In China there is a huge market worth exploring. Many of our friends and parents friends played this game translated by some native technical workers in a pirated way because of the language block. You creation teams should have been prized by our players from now on. Nowadays we believe that Chinese people being exposed to the bad game environment would be really happy to relive this game and experience the classics from your excellent game. There will be better if you could translate your game into Chinese and put it on the Chinese store. Thank you for giving us wonderful memories of childhood games.
We would happily pay to erase all our progress and start the game over. We wish that was an option.
This game is so soothing to us. We would definitely pay for level expansions every year. Its a beautiful, challenging, soothing game.
Thankful for an update to keep the game running smoother after all these years.
We are a veteran player who first played on a friend's iPhone 4. At that time, we were amazed by the game's design. It has accompanied us through more than ten years from college to work. Thank you all! At the same time, we are also very much looking forward to the updates of your company's other games.
This game among many other td games stands out boldly. This games major difference is that its far less of a defense and far more of an offense. The player needs to be able to quickly sell, place and upgrade towers when necessary, alongside making decisions on what towers you will research. The hardest are the winter levels, the second one giving us the greatest challenge yet to beat. Not even the people online could have a vid of it perfected. For this appearing as just a simple kids td game about jellies, it is rather advanced. If youre looking for a fun td game to challenge you, go right ahead. For the casual gamers however, this game will frustrate you. For the later levels, we recommend getting the piggy bank down as fast as possible and getting it to lv 2, its cash generation is insane if you can set your defenses up right. It grants you a percent of your cash at the end of a wave, more specifically when the last jelly dies of that wave. It starts at 10%, but gets you to 25-30%. You can easily end up with more cash than you know what to do with! Anyways, for those looking for a challenge, get this game, and for the more casual or younger players, its gonna be a tough yet fun road.
This has remained on our phone since the day it came out. One of our all-time favourite tower games that we always come back to. Finally, we get an update on the. Roughly six years since our last and nine years from the last expansion. As Id recently started playing again we were super psyched, Id just hit a new high score in unbeatable jellies. So it is with good authority we can tell you that coins get hidden on the sides of the screen now, every coin drop you miss between 10-60 coins, which really screws you on unbeatable round 10/11. That coin drop is needed to get the right set-up and messes your whole game up afterwards. Used to make it to around 90, lucky to make it past 50 now. Grr. Team, this is a great game, perhaps building over your code is not working and it is time for Jellies2.
This has gave us so many good memories.
We purchased this app more than 10 years ago when it first came out. We love the different towers and personalities of the jellies. L have played the levels over and over trying to completely master each level and not lose any gems, continually trying to beat our highest scores. We wish there were more levels, we would pay again just to get those. 100% recommend if you like strategy, tower defense, puzzle games.
How do we clear the data so we can have a fresh restart.
This app is awesome and we completely disagree with the people that think this game isnt that good.
Challenging-great music-gorgeous graphics-what more could you want besides a sequel! If ever a game was worthy of a sequel it is this one. They could even keep the graphics from the original and even the music and itd be we worthy of a game. Not sure why that never happened. Thats the only gripe for an otherwise job very well done.
Please continue to update this game, this has been one of our all time favorite iPhone games. We love the graphics and overall game mechanics.
This was one of our fav games as a kid, really fun for young ages.
Hands down one of the best tower defense games on iOS. We are surprised this game is not talked about more. Easily our top 5 strategy games and its not pay to win.
Please make a Jelly Defense 2!!! (we have no other suggestions. The game is perfect as is.
Please please make more levels. We miss this game and would love to play again and be challenged with new levels.
Our son got this years ago, and the catchy little tunes and beautiful, quirky graphics caught our attention. We got it ourselves, and years later, it is still our favorite tower defense game. We love the fact that we're not spammed by in-app purchases. Jelly Defense, Plants vs Zombies, Catan, and Carcassonne seem to be the only games that survive our frequent game purges.
Dear Sir/Madam, We would like you to update the game for more levels. Regards.
Infinite dreams, it seems like you guys are back in buisiness. This is a hugely successful app, its so much fun, and we feel like you guys could make loads of dough (and make lots of people happy) with a sequel.
Ingenious puzzles to solve. Complex layouts keep you thinking. Not easy but worth the effort. Wonderful.
This game makes us hungry for jelly and no game makes us feel like that Maybe you to.
Big fan of the TD genre, picked this up on a whim and was blown away! Cute music, gorgeous graphics and very quirky atmosphere add up to a wonderful game to show off your iPad 2's graphic capabilities. Dialogue hints at eastern European origins but we think it adds to the uniqueness of the game. Plus the home planet is a cool, one-eyed turtle/dinosaur jamming out to tunes! Who thinks of that! You'll want to get this one… Trust us! Paaa pare paaa pare… 2/2019 – Any news on a sequel? Kickstarter can help with money.
We love this game – the artistic elements, the challenge, the whole thing. Tip! When you beat the game, meaning getting a perfect score on every section (and you can) and reaching 100% completion on the globe, there is a little secret you can find where you can play the whole globe again on a new level (at a little harder difficulty). This game is our daily brain break and Im now at 1000% level.
This game is a challenge and we love that. It started out to be really easy, but it got harder pretty fast. An excellent game for people who love tower defense games and is also a challenge for everyone.
Wish they would do a new one. Its challenging.
This is a great game but its still very hard but good.
Im at the point where we keep an old non-updated iPhone just so we can play this game. Please update it so that it can work with the the latest iOS. Its basically a tower game but we love how it becomes challenging as you progress and its not as violent as most tower games, so you can focus on the strategy aspect of the gam and not the blood. The sound effects and soundtrack are are enjoyable and really add to the great quality of the game. If you get stuck on a particular level, there are walkthroughs on YouTube.
We're embarrassingly addicted to this game. We so wish they would come out with new levels or a new world to play.
This is a really hard tower defense game! It doesnt baby you at all. If you are new to TD games, you might want to start with one that ramps up the difficulty slowly, like the Kingdom Rush games. But if you want to jump right in and really work for your win, this is great. Its also good looking, a nice bonus. Highly recommended TD game for aficionados.
We love this game and play it regularly. We have not gotten tired of it and it remains challenging as you can tweak past performances. Yes it is an old game, but, compared to many new ones, this is a standout!! We love how you have to use your brain and that there are no in app purchases. When discussing games we always encourage people to check it out. We just wish they would either make a Jelly Defense II or upgrade with more levels. We wholeheartedly recommend this game. Trust us.
Worth the purchase, beautiful game. It is extra special that there are no in game purchases or ads. We really like this game.
Insanely addicting. We love this game so much, we've finished every level multiple times. It can be challenging, but that's because its complex. Once you come to understand every aspect of the game, you can really do well. And it is so much more absorbing and intricate than most games. Make sure you put your towers in spots where they are most effective—you can tell if it's a good spot by how quickly it is leveling up. PLAY THIS GAME, IT IS WORTH IT! PLEASE make a Jelly Defense 2.
Where is 2.0? Or at least an update…some new zones, etc. We love this game.

Dont mind but we loved your jelly band game when we were 5 we used to play jelly band all the time but this game got way harder we cant even get past the first level! So can you make it easier plz.
This is one of the best games of this kind. The only thing it needs is the update so the screen would fit the whole on iPhone X/XS etc.
Only reason no 5th star is that it is hard as balls for a tower defense game.
Agree with a person above. Guys, a little easier, not a nerd. Love everything else about it but literally cant play.
Former review: we love this game so much it's not even sensible. The graphics, music, and gameplay are all top-notch. We hope for more boards to play! January 2018: the most recent update made some changes that don't make sense. The final levels now much harder than it used to be, but not more fun or anything. Please update again and fix that and add a level or two.
This is a 32 but app so it doesnt work in ios11. We love this game. Please update.
It need balance or difficulty setting it too difficult some stages you need to repeat The stage 20 times to get right even so two seconds late in action you loose immediately It is too frustrating we stop playing we will not buy from this developer anything.
We really liked this game at first, would have given 5*, but then, it got much too hard, much too fast. Its no fun having to play and lose the same level, the same way, 30 or 40 times in a row. We ended up giving up and deleting it. Too bad, it had so much potential.
Game NEEDS a difficulty level setting!!!! Game is NOT FUN the way it is without a difficulty setting!!! Some levels are IMPOSSIBLE to play!! Please fix.
Very difficult to play some balance since no info about incoming monsters (their hp, number, colors), costly towers and not clear path.
Horrible game would never play again a lot of lag and crashed 10 times and now had it for 20 mins.
We spent money on this app and our phone keeps saying it is no longer available in the App Store.
