After reading a lot of the reviews, I decided to give this game a shot. I'm a big Tower Defense and RPG fan, but not so much a Match 3 kind of guy, so I was worried.
I love the idea of having monsters moving toward and attacking your tower, while you make matches to fire missiles at them, while utilizing your gear to damage and/or slow down their advance. I also love the use of spells to fire multiple missiles at a time, heal your tower, and make the Match 3 part easier (for a Match 3 noob, like myself). The implementation of RPG elements like leveling and getting to pick out spells/gear with gold and xp was a great idea. This was definitely an amazingly designed game.
Looking back at the reviews that I read giving the game low marks, I can definitely see the trolls hard at work here. Just like anywhere, there's also some people that want to mark everything down. Don't worry about what they said; this game is truly great, you'll see what I mean when you play it.
I recommend this game!
