Beautiful Tower Defense – EMPIRE UNDER FIRE - The Most Beautiful Strategy Game Review

Though the tower defense genre is pretty crowded on the App Store, this is an excellent new addition. For the bargain basement price of FREE, there's no reason not to check it out. The developer gets a lot of credit for creating beautiful, 3D rendered maps, as well as foregoing things like IAP and timers. Players are free to enjoy the game without constraints in the form of de facto paywalls, a very uncommon thing of late. The gameplay isn't the most original, but it does a good job of scratching the tower defense itch. Also, the leveling system for towers and player abilities adds a degree of progression to the game, not found in many competing titles. The game still has a few drawbacks. In order to render the visuals, you're going to need to play on an A6 chip or better (iPhone 5/iPad 4 and up). Also, the install size is quite large if you've got a device with only 16GB of space. Beyond the technological, the game has little in the way of an introduction, and a handful of minor language localization issues. In sum, this is a great new tower defense game that you should definitely check out if you can run it on your device and have the space. Especially while it's free, there's no reason not to pick it up, even with a few minor issues to be resolved.
