![]() ![]() Many fools have underestimated her as a simple hermit of the swamp, paying no heed to her warnings or threats… to only live long enough to regret it. She is unlocked by reaching Lost Jungle, starts at level 6 and is not available on Flash.ĭark secrets and dark powers are the realm of the mysterious witch of the jungle. It’s a shame then that the over-sensitive controls on Xbox bring about as much suffering as the overpowered enemies.Bruxa the Voodoo Witch is a hero in Kingdom Rush: Frontiers. Map designs play an important role in making each level exciting, which is complemented by cool tower types and cleverly planned placement points, thus creating erection perfection. The strategic elements ensure a real challenge is to be had as you get to grips with the many enemy waves heading your way. Kingdom Rush Frontiers builds a gaming stronghold worthy of defending the honour of the tower defense genre, but there are a couple of weak spots. It’s worth attempting because the stars are handy for permanently upgrading the meteor shower, the reinforcements and certain aspects of towers. What these do is pose challenges such as removing the use of heroes and limiting the tower types at your disposal. A further two stars become available for each as a result of Iron and Heroic stages. Should you actually possess the mental fortitude to gather the three stars on every level, there’s a bit of extra replayability. To make things even more exciting, environmental interference can occur on maps, including giant worms emerging to decimate friends and foes alike, and carnivorous plants gobbling up those getting too close. You are always kept on your toes with multiple points of entry to pay attention to. ![]() With a whopping sixteen to unlock, there’s bound to be one who’s a perfect match whether it’s the stone giant Grawl, the priestess Deidre, or the trust champion Alric.Īs for the actual maps, the layouts deserve credit first and foremost, ensuring no setup feels the same in any level. Even though you can only assign one hero at a time to join the adventure, they’re very useful when levelled-up due to the special abilities they possess. When all else lets you down, you’re lucky to have heroes on-hand to be the last-line of defence too. In order to give you a bit more hope, there’s some support in the form of reinforcement troops and a meteor shower that have cooldowns. You definitely won’t mistake the bosses for anything else they’re massive and have neat tricks up their sleeve. Thankfully, give or take a couple of similar tribesmen, their designs have unique enough features to enable you to spot which are causing you trouble. I’m talking about shamans, raiders, jungle spiders, teleporting Saurian reptiles, scorpions, and angry apes. The variety of enemies is superb though, as you’re constantly introduced to new creatures and discovering how they’ll ruin your life like the aforementioned pests. I like the challenge of adapting to the many different foes faced, but some enemies are overpowered such as the Sand Wraith spawning armies and the Blood Tricksters who bring slain tribesmen, which can be overwhelming. Meanwhile, those soldiers could do a job of slowing down groups as the artillery lays down a barrage of AoE damage. For example, troops on the ground are useless against flying wasps, and so archers are required. That said, there’s a lot of focus on knowing thy enemy and ensuring you have a good mix of towers in opportune locations. Occasionally the map gets altered mid-level too, creating an additional route for baddies to infiltrate your defences. The so-called casual difficulty is ridiculous, with failure always looming over your head. ![]() The fact you can scorch the earth with the DWAARP, improve the assassins’ chances of thieving, and slow enemies with oil, are just a few reasons why the towers are ace.Įven with all that power at your behest, don’t expect an easy ride as Kingdom Rush Frontiers is damn tough. The barracks evolve into either an Assassin’s Guild or a Knight’s Templar, while the artillery eventually becomes a quake-inducing DWAARP mining machine or a beasty big boy Battle-Mecha T200. Every tower can be upgraded to level four, where the awesome advanced options arise and branch out with further special abilities. The basic tower types make use of archers, magic, artillery and a barracks for melee troops, which is absolutely fine. Putting that aside though, it’s great to see some ingenuity in regards to the towers. ![]()
