Grave Defense

I played another tower defense game today on my tablet for the first time which can also be played on the Android, or Iphone.   Grave Defense has the same objectives as most tower defense games where you try to stop the enemy from getting to the other side.  I played for almost four hours, and enjoyed it quite a bit.

Grave Defense is pretty simple to figure out.  A red glowing trail shows you the flow of the enemies.  The placement of towers are predetermined which makes it a little easier.  You just click and drag your tower to one of the spots.

Each tower can be upgraded five times.  Each upgrade can increase damage, speed, and range.  You have a choice of several towers to buy also.  I initially started off with the cheapest ones, and kept upgrading them up to max.

Slowly the money starts piling up a little faster, and you can buy the better towers.  I found that I could clear each wave pretty easily without having to use every available tower spot allotted.  The secret is to upgrade your towers when they are away from the action because during the upgrade which lasts a few seconds your tower doesn't shoot anything.  If you try to upgrade while enemies are strolling by it could backfire because they may end up getting past because your towers were upgrading instead of shooting.

They added a few cool features where you can click on additional money, and health packs that show up randomly for a few seconds.  You have to be quick on your toes, or they will be gone.  You can also hit the >>> button at the top left, and speed up the game.  I found it pretty useful to speed it up because you spend less time waiting around for the enemies to slowly die.

One of the best features is you can progress in the game without having to start from the very beginning each time.  Once you clear waves, and get your ranking you automatically start again at that next level.  I would definitely recommend downloading this game app, and I promise you will have hours of fun playing it.
