Why players love itThings to know
67% of themes are praise8% are divided25% are complaints
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
69 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
While its storyline certainly leaves some things to be desired in the campaign mode the gameplay is pretty solid.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
44 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Hard difficulty requires a huge deal of on-the-spot adaptibility, sometimes requiring you to lose a wave in order to see how everything spawns in so you know what to kill first, what you need to run the longest path for, etc.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
41 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Plot is good, but everything else you got is just old soldier grumbling.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
41 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Playing the same level in coop suddenly becomes quite easy, because you have twice the amount of towers.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
40 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
You can blow up bridges, clear out trees and basically cause absolute mayhem while spanning your high tech laser / flame / rocket / plasma towers all over the map, not even speaking of the laser fences, all of which looks really great thanks to the nice artstyle and visuals.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
38 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Very good challenge level on Hard and Brutal difficulties, requiring both combat skill and strategy to win.
