I like tower defense games. There so little instructions that for someone new to the genre, they would have no idea what to do. I could ignore the graphics had I been able to tell which mobs were the strong ones.
I can't believe someone gave this 3 stars!
There was little information on which towers damage which enemies. Also the towers do not cover enough areas or the paths are far too wide...when the paths are split the places you can build towers are too little and your kingdom gets damaged.
If you want to play a tower defense game there are way better ones out there.
The only thing I liked about this was the fact that you could have soldiers stand in the path to fight enemies, I thought that was unique. Too bad, I was hoping this would be a good game.
I don't recommend this game.
My Kingdom for the Princess
It's up to you, Arthur, a brave knight, to restore the land and escort Princess Helen back to her father, King Olgert.

I really like this type of time management game. There are 40 levels, and It has some strategy to it. You have to decide what path to take, there are supplies to pick up, roads to repair, wood to chop, gold to gather. If you enjoy games like Zeus, or Roads Of Rome, chances are you will like this game.
The music is very nice, I would have liked to see a few different tracks, but it was not overwhelming nor annoying. The graphics are nice, with cut scenes, and a cute storyline.
I think there is a very decent tutorial to get you prepared for how the game works, and also a feature of building your castle when you get everything done by nightfall. I wish you could get a bonus hidden level or something fun for getting all the golden trophies, but it is their first game. I have not tried the others yet!
If you cannot get everything done in time, no worry the game is rather forgiving and allows you to continue the storyline with a silver medal. If you cannot finish it within that time, you do have to try again, but I never had that happen, there is a tougher time to get the gold medals though. What I did was completed the whole game with silver medals when I did not get the gold, and went on until the end. then went back and got the gold ones later. Sometimes I played this when I was too tired, and just seeing it when refreshed showed me where I went wrong.
If you get stuck, check out the forums here, or you can check the internet or even youtube for really great walkthroughs that do not include cheats. I don't like to win by cheating, so I don't look for those.
I enjoyed this one so much, I plan on buying the next two. I urge you, save the kingdom and find a princess! You will not be sorry!!
Happy gaming!
I recommend this game!
