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.
