Since KR 1
I’ve been playing this since 2013 and I still love the game. All of the KR games I own and I loved all the changes Ironhide brings every new game. The new towers and heroes always bring a fresh take on the game. The mechanics evolved and they made it even better. I bought all the heroes and towers because I love supporting them. Hoping for more KR in the future, thank you for making amazing tower defense games!

Cash Grab
Having been a big fan of this studios work I can’t really recommend this one. Far too expensive for frustratingly small payouts unless you shell out even more $$ to get it.

Wonderful Game
I have been a fan of Kingdom Rush ever since the first ever one. It has been a childhood game of mine and I am so glad to see that over 10 years later and I can still play the game. Genesis is a beautifully and masterfully remastered version of the original and I am loving every second of it. My only downside is I wish they released Ingvar bearclaw as he was my favorite hero back then and I’m sad he is not in Genesis. Bias aside still a 10/10 game

Ridiculous Pricing
Once you buy the game it costs $60 be able to use most the towers and hero’s they made for this game… good deal on steam. Not mobile. Very disappointed in this decision locking most the games content and the new tower types. Which is what you buy these new games for.

Amazing
Having the classic mode plus having the actual new game feels like having two games in one, I remember playing this on armor games when it first came out and the nostalgia plus the new features is amazing. I will always love and support the developer. This may be the best kingdom rush in my expert opinion.

Hope Ironhide listens, otherwise great.
Legitimately one of the best campaigns this series has had; very good boss fights, heroes, and towers. Difficulty was good too. However, it should not cost 50 bucks more for me to unlock everything on mobile than on steam. Please consider lowering the price (of in game purchases) Ironhide. I wish to enjoy your crasftmanship without taking an arm and a leg.

Over $60 to access all of the games content…
Great game, just wish that even after paying $7 to play. There weren’t so many in game purchases. Over half the heros/spells/towers are locked behind pay walls!! Which is unfortunate. It’d be cool if you could buy those things for large amounts of gems…?

Same Good, Same Bad
Shame on me for forgetting how they like to overprice the heroes.

Please Nerf Frostbite Nest
I’m so thankful for another addition of a classic by Ironhide. There are a lot of positives, but the Frostbite Nest level is just unplayable and I can’t continue the campaign. This may seem like a skill issue problem, sue me, but it seems I’m not the only one online who’s mentioned this level
Way too challenging, unfun, and i have to lower the difficulty and spend real money on gem power ups to beat it. I shouldn’t have to feel like I’m cheating by lower difficulty settings or buying power ups to beat a campaign level. The boss has too much hp, too many little spiders, and the limited vision is too tough to navigate.

They want over $50 for the full game
You don’t get all the heroes and towers when you buy the game, they want you to spend more than $50 to unlock everything and there’s still micro transactions after that.

Worst KR Launch Ever
Difficulty: hardest in the series IMO. Enemies are OP and gold’s super tight—can’t even afford artillery. Just not fun.
MTX: $63 to max out?? That’s crazy expensive. And half the paid stuff is useless and weak as hell.
Story: worst part. Gerald goes back in time and basically nothing changes except a new boss. And the Sword of Elynie, which looks OP, somehow gets one-shot by a basic Vez’nan spell.
Just gotta wait for patches. It’s a mess.

Money grab ?
I’ve loved this game for years ever since high school would always watch videos on how to beat certain levels but one things that does get to me is the price on hero’s and towers ? Is it me or is there less towers and heroes that what I would’ve loved but in order to have that we need to pay? I would’ve loved if they went back to the original game where everything was smooth and some sort of money grab cause that what it seems 😿👊

Insane pricing ruins an otherwise good game
Game itself (or the small bit of it you get with what you pay upfront…) is good, but you have to pay ~10x the base price to access more than half the content?? What a joke.
I’ll just spend that on a real console/PC game lol. I’ll still have some left in my pocket, too…

Sell outs
Feels soulless. The graphics feel like some love child from ai slop and fortnite. You guys absolutely abandoned your base to im sure “appeal to a wider audience”

Avoid
Absolutely terrible. Pay $30+ not to suck. I played all the other ones and they were playable with free characters, towers, and spells. This game not so much. Not fun at all. Please balance this game. Yikes, money hungry is what ruins games and companies.

Good but could be better
I felt it’s a great rush game with same mechanics.The main issue is how expensive the hero’s,spells and abilities are.When compared to other rush installments paying for certain things is ok but all aspects is a bit much.But definitely fun overall though .
