Yes, this is a re-run of Royal Defense but, the graphics layout is much better and more interesting. The game play is the same. I gave "Excellent" for Visual/Sound Quality. Well the sound is OK, the music is very repetative which makes it boring, so the excellence goes to the Visual quality. I love these tower type of games. This one has three levels, easy, normal and hard. It is very addictive and great fun to play. This really is a first class game and I only wish we could have more stratergy games of this quality. Give this game a try Im sure you won't be dissapointed.
I recommend this game!

This game is typical T.M. game with the usual food to collect, wood to chop, rocks to smash etc. but there are some other challenges and trophies to be obtained. A lot has already been said about this game most of which is positive and so all I can really say is, if you like T.M. games, then you should be well pleased with this one. Never played a T.M. game? Try this. It should get you hooked.
I recommend this game!

This is a great M3 game. Lots of bonus points and items to collect which are helpful in gaining gold points. The gold is used to purchase some of the available items and you will find that some are free. For example the pumpkin(s) which feature in the garden of the house are in fact bombs. There is a bullet that shoots up a single vertical line clearing everything in that line and there is a whole host of other useful items to collect.
In the timed mode things never get really difficult though I have to admit that around level 30 there is so much to do that time does run short, in fact I ran out of time twice at this level, but it's all part of the fun.
It's a lighthearted, entertaining game, easy to play with great graphics and music that is not annoying.
This game is suitable for all ages and all skill levels.

If you have never played Royal Envoy 1 and or 2 then you should be very pleased with Royal Envoy 3. BUT, if have played either or both, then there is little new in this game, well not within the free 1 hour.
The music is the same, the voices are the same, the tasks are the same. There doesn't appear to be anything new. If there was, surely the new parts of the game would be in the first hour, thereby catching the attention of the player, who may well feel that it would be a good game to buy.
I might be tempted to buy this game when it comes out as a normal game as opposed to the Collector's Edition, but I won't be buying this!

If you are TM fan then you will love this challenging game. You have to be quick if you want to obtain 3 gold stars as you proceed up the levels. I have to admit that even on level 2 I had to have two tries at it! But in my opinion, the fact that you have to work things out and beat the clock makes this a great game.
The graphics are excellent, the music is, well lets say it is not annoying and the storyline is OK
Go on try it out. You won't be dissapointed!

No point in repeating all the good comments. This is a great game. It should become one of BFG's best ever in time management games.

This is an extended version of many free versions of this game. There is a skill factor when playing against the computer, but it is too easy to cheat! If you are losing a particular round, whack your ball, so it goes off the table. You don't lose; the round just starts again!
It's not a game worth paying the full price for. When it's reduced or nothing takes your fancy and you have a free game, then go ahead and get it.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion and mine is: I can't see anything to complain about. I suppose if you have never played a time management game before, then the tutorial could be more detailed, but having said that, I have not encountered any difficulty and that was after switching the tutorial off! Some players have stated that the game is boring, some players, like me think it's great. So, my advice is play the free 60 mins game and make up your own minds.
I recommend this game!

By now people reading the reviews will know all about the mechanics of the game. plus the complaints that it is too hard, insufficient instruction etc etc. One player stated that he got no further than level 3 and gave up. One complaint I agree with is that the music is very very repetative so I just turn it down. Well, in my opinion the game just needs playing a few times to see what to do, Check out in "Help" what the Towers can and can't do. If you fail a level - no problem, go back and try again.
This is a stratergy game and I have to admit that I am currently having a problem in killing off the flying "beasties" The game informs me and it would appear correct, that only the "rifle" tower can kill flying beasts. This appears to be true, but the shots, albeit very accurate are too slow to kill off the hordes, therefore your number of lives is reduced dramatically and even if you survive the onslaught, you fail to gain sufficient points to win 3 gold bars. There must be a way to defeat them. I just haven't found out yet!!
Anyway, give it go, it's well worth the effort

I tried to get to grips with this game but I just couldn't work out how during a battle conflict I could win. Using cards there where various weapons that I could and did use, but the other combatant kept blocking my attacks. That's fine, but I could neither see or find out how I could defend myself by blocking his attack.
There is also a lot of dialogue to read. There is an option to skip this, but if you do, you end up not knowing what it is you are supposed to do.
So for me this game is a "No No" at least until someone writes clear, concise instructions on how to play the game.
