Toytown Tower Defense Game Review
One
of the very best tower defense games, both graphically and strategy
wise, Toytown Tower Defense will test your ability to place towers
in strategic positions and stop the marching hordes from over running
your castle.
Toytown Defense gives you a hero to help with defending the castle
which you can move to shoot the creeps that are the enemy. There
are 3 different heroes to choose from, each with their own special
abilities. One looks like a space fighter which shoots bullets,
one a wizard who drops poisonous potions and the last is a nice
looking witch who's shots slow the creeps and does extra damage
to bosses.
There are a few other differences with Toytown Tower Defense from
the normal tower defense games in that as creeps are killed, they
randomly drop a present for you to pickup which contains a special
power up prize that could help you progress through the game. Some
packages contain a prize which, when activated, takes off half life
of all the creeps on the board. Other power up packages give towers
double hit damage while others seem fairly useless. The big thing
is to watch out for them as they really come in handy as the game
gets harder and harder.
Toytown Tower Defense is a hard game to conquer, you also have
to buy power plants that give power to your towers, which take away
from the money you could otherwise use for upgrades. Choose your
hero well, as the hero is the main defense after about the first
4 levels.
Toytown Tower Defense would rate very high except for the annoyance
of having to click on a small map to scroll to the different parts
of the playing path. I would have liked to be able to just move
the mouse to shift the view but you can use the keyboard arrows
to move around the screen. This was the only downer in an otherwise
entertaining and very perplexing game.
Toytown Tower Defense Game Hints, Tips, Cheats
- Each hero has special powers.
- The Wizard seems to have the better killing power.
- Make sure you collect the power up parcels the creeps drop when they
are killed. They are essential to prolong the game.
- You can only collect and keep 5 power up parcels at a time.
- Use useless parcels to make room for the better power ups that will
do more damage to creeps. Save the best parcels for later stages.
- If you can save the nuke power up this is the best to use when you
are really in trouble
- Assign an "aura" to your hero and all towers. For example
in the early stages you can assign the yellow aura which gives more
money for killing creeps and then in the later stages assign the red
aura which gives towers more hit power.
