Great game that requires lots of planning and attention to detail to defeat the raiders and meet the objectives. If you liked the originals, you'll love this one.
I recommend this game!

This is an excellent tower-defense style game for strategy lovers. If you like strategy games, this one is a definite "buy"!

I haven't played the other game(s) in this series but am familiar with similar games. I wasn't sure what to expect here, and was pleasantly surprised.
Favorite things: I like the achievements, the bronze/silver/gold trophy levels, and the overall gameplay style which is fun in a "Sim City" kind of way (although that's not the object of the game.) I tend to ignore the quests because I'm always going for the gold trophy.
I also like playing a level on my own personal "sandbox mode", meaning I'm ignoring the time limits to obtain the trophy and just maintaining/improving the little town and doing quests.
What I don't like: The graphics could have been better/cuter. They're not bad, they're just not great. =)
I don't have a problem whatsoever with the cursor as others have reported. Also, to those who say the info boxes, etc. are too large and get in the way of the game, probably didn't play long enough to realize those boxes can easily be collapsed and re-opened. Show less

Casual gaming strategy, not fair for those that have only played HO games to try this type of game and then come and down vote. If you already enjoy and have experience with strategy genre games (or willing to learn and use your own initiative and follow directions), I suggest you give this series a try.
This is a great, fun series.
Wish there would be more; developers.... PLEASE!?
I recommend this game!

I have played most of the Be A King saga, but I have to say that this one is by far my favorite. I love that you have the primary goals on each level, but you also have to keep your town safe from danger by building guard towers and such. On top of that, you have to worry about money and resources to boot. There is so much to each level that it can take a while to finish them all. And, if you're ...Show more

On top of that, you have to worry about money and resources to boot. There is so much to each level that it can take a while to finish them all. And, if you're like me and have to get a gold cup on each level, it can get extremely challenging as you go along. I highly recommend this game if you love building games as well as time management games. Show less

************ I give it a 5 star rate ***********
And not many get this from this gamer. Try it, see for yourself. And I am going to be a 'replayer' on this game.
