Slow speed kills this – Beat the Beast HD Review

The cardinal sin of any game is to be boring, but by stretching out gameplay Beast is that. I only rate it three star because it's possible to hold down 2x to speed things up (after the first level, which disables it), but that's entirely the wrong way around: 2x is a perfectly good speed and should be the default, with buttons you can press to speed up or slow down from there, and you should never need to hold anything down, especially since the game isn't multitouch. Otherwise, it's a generic single-path tower defense, with decent graphics. The 3d element adds exactly nothing to the formula aside from looks, when so much more could have been done with it, and I think there are collision detection bugs with the hammers sometimes. Skip it unless its on sale.
