Reviews and ratings

One of the best games in this genre, it has absolutely everything you need: top-notch graphics, an interesting plot, and most importantly, the characters and monsters are simply amazingly thought out. Each creature has its own characteristics and they can be improved a couple of times if you accumulate experience, and this is gained by killing an enemy creature. You have under your command a main character who can use magic during battle, if the tower allows it, and there are also side characters. Secondary characters can use artifacts and their own abilities, which can be acquired by gaining a level. During battles, always place your troops carefully, as archers may hit their allies or be hindered by some obstacle.

Одна из лучших игр данного жанра, в ней присутствует абсолютно все, что надо: графика на высшем уровне, сюжет интересный, а самое главное — просто потрясающе продуманны персонажи и монстры. У каждого существа есть свои характеристики и их можно пару раз улучшить, если накопить опыт, а набирается он за убийство вражеского существа. У вас под командованием есть основной герой, который может использовать магию во время боя, в случае если башня позволяет это сделать, а также есть побочные герои. Второстепенные герои могут использовать артефакты и собственные способности, которые можно приобрести, получая уровень. Во время сражений всегда расставляйте свои войска продуманно, так как лучники могут попасть по своим союзникам или же им может помешать какая-нибудь помеха.
