Gameplay
Your goal in Towerlands is to defend your castle from the enemies who approach you. You can accurately target the people who come forth and upgrade your weapons and towers so you can get better results. I found that upgrading after every game helped a whole bunch, however, it does get to the point where you have to pay to upgrade.
Graphics
I quite enjoyed the look of the graphics as it felt like I was playing a game in a pop-up book. I’ve never seen anything like this before on the app store so it definitely impressed me and fit in extremely well with the gameplay. The visuals also made it easy to keep an eye on your troops and the opponents to make sure you’re shooting your arrows in the right direction. Sometimes tower defense games can be hard on the eyes, but Towerlands definitely isn’t.
Music & Sounds
The sounds also fit in with the theme perfectly with your classic medieval fighting music, groans from troops, and the shooting of arrows. Unlike other tower defense games I’ve played, there aren’t too many sounds that make the game overwhelming. I’m a fan!
Controls
As with a lot of tower defense games, you need to tap on the attack you want to use. There are 3 different types of attacks to begin with: simple attack, releasing troops, and special attack. You need to specify exactly where you want the attack to land so when the players are moving, aim it slightly in front of them. Trust me.

The Verdict
Out of all the tower defense games I’ve played so far, Towerlands has to be up there in my top 5. It’s easy to play, yet competitive and has the clearest looking graphics I think you can get for a TD game. This is one I’m definitely going to return to in the future, or I might just keep it on my phone permanently.
