Dungeon Warfare 2 12+

'Dungeon Warfare' and 'Dungeon Warfare 2' are both great games that I strongly recommend if you like Tower Defense (TD). I agree with the other reviewers comparing it favorably to TD from the 'Warcraft 3: The Frozen Throne' World Editor.

The maps are well designed (for the most part) and can be made as challenging as you want them to be. The newly introduced skill tree and items keeps things feeling fresh for longer with some (emphasis on the word "some") unique and interesting combinations to discover.

JAN-2024 EDIT: Game keeps crashing. I'm Lv600+ in the NG mode (can't remember what it's called) and my game keeps crashing towards the end of the tier 67 map. I made sure to keep the number of spawned units to a minimum, but it doesn't make a difference like it usually does. My traps are also reporting a negative total damage. Some trap upgrades flat out don't work at all. The "25% chance to stun for 2 seconds when dealing lightning damage" talent (called skills in the game) doesn't seem to work. Some traps are much worse than others and are basically useless.

Let me start off by saying I am a long time fan of tower defense games, both on PC and iOS. I have played just about every TD game there is and Dungeon Warfare 2 is hands down the best one ever made. I have countless hours sinked into their first installment and loved every minute of it. This game is just like the first but amped up in every way possible. In depth trap upgrading systems, passive skill trees, items dropped for extra bonuses built around a magic find system, complex transmuting, a ton of exciting traps and well thought out levels. Even more ways to add experience bonuses by calling waves early, new enemy abilities to make you think even more about how to overcome them and beat the level. If you’re a TD fan this is a must have. Developers are genius with their design and do not trick you with IAPs. One time buy and you’re set for countless hours of challenging gameplay. 5/5 keep up the great work!

I’m so used to being disappointed by iOS games that I couldn’t believe how badly the first Dungeon Warfare game sucked me in.

Dungeon Warfare 2 is a beautifully crafted sequel that, like many classic sequels, shows a developer fully coming to grips with his own game design. The first game was very fun and replay able but some aspects of the gameplay - especially towards the end of the game- were a bit rough. The second game has many cool new designs for enemies, traps, skills and other layers of managing your dungeon, and many of the rougher aspects of the first game are addressed directly by these changes. This is a great sign of a developer who lives and breathes his own work.

Finally, the Dungeon Warfare games are *perfectly* suited to the iPad. (They work well on the larger iPhones too, if you need to kill some time, but it’s just better on the iPad). This game deserves a try from anyone who wants to support those guys who work hard to craft mobile games, even as they know their baby is going to be set adrift in a vast flood of half-assed mobile games. They have faith in people to spread the word about their game.

All in all, can’t wait for Dungeon Warfare 3.
