Battle Alliance
iOS, (Christian Drapatz)
Tower Defense games have a slow-building tactical magic that helps explain why they have been so popular for so long. Battle Alliance's version of this type of game has some levels where enemies follow a set path and some where you can move them by putting turrets in their way.
You can defend against infantry, vehicles, and an airforce with towers that can be upgraded individually. As you progress, you'll unlock new variations, and the goal for each round is to make sure that no more than three invaders reach your base.
It's too bad that the animations aren't very good, that there's no fast-forward button, and that it's not very well balanced. Even though you paid for the app, it starts selling you things right away. In spite of all that, the levels offer some interesting challenges.
Had enough of boredom and want to finally build as well as destroy? Then Battle Alliance is just the game for you.
There are many tower defense games out there, but Battle Alliance takes the genre to the next level and has it all: fast-paced, action-packed battles! Strategy! Deceitful enemies! Explosions! Your skills alone decide whether your nation will win or lose.
Blow up the attackers with a powerful defense! Upgrade your weapons, plan your strategy and get ready for action! Brute strength conflicts are announced again and again in spurts!
In order to actually emerge victorious from this real-time challenge, the player must use his head to strategically deploy his units. With a little overview and the necessary tactical orientation, victorious stages can be contested again. There's not much time to take a breather after celebrating victory and preparing to resist the next wave.
As a real-time strategy game, Battle Alliance of course requires advance planning - but with a large number of enemy units and different terrains, this is more demanding than you might think at first. The positioning of the troops makes this Tactical War a real challenge! And when things get really tight, air support always helps. But be careful! The enemy also knows tricks for battle and you can be suddenly showered with a few explosive gifts. As the game progresses, this Tower Defense War intensifies and also enables expensive but effective high-tech weapons.
In 40 varied missions you have to keep the upper hand and fend off brazen challengers. These playing fields are for the long-term and are not time-limited or based on success. Thanks to relatively open gameplay, you can come close to success using completely different strategies - there is no one golden way to victory. The combination of 16 enemy units and 20 of your own defensive weapons allow hours of addictive gaming. And your units are also upgradeable, promising more range and more bang.
Battle Alliance will also tie you up for a while! Each card contains a well thought-out tactical chess board, which you should carefully examine before you set up your game. The wide range of defense systems as well as the maps with different areas and geological conditions that can be used in different ways for your own purposes make for an entertaining confrontation, in both the short and long term. Expansion card packages are also available and more are being planned. More than 40 extra playing fields can already be used in addition to the standard. This remains the only in-app purchase, and only as an option for avid gamers.
