I imagine that you like playing tower defense games, just like me. Have you ever been in this circumstances: you started a tower defense game some time ago, you initiate the current wave to see all your towers fire away, yet few of the enemies still make it to your base, with only a little life spared, but just enough to make all your earlier efforts useless? Oho, in particular if your base did not have enough hit points left and you have to institute all over again, I know how that feels!
Well, bellow I'll enter some tips to help you handle the situation and win more tower defense games. There are differences from game to game, but the counsel you will get is intended to be general. If you follow these tips, you will have a much better chance to finish all waves and win any of the tower defense games you play. In the end of the article I also reveal a great site where you can play tower defense games for free (I own the site, but given that you now know that I like playing tower defense games just as much as you do, that's a great thing, right? But first, here are the tips to help you win:
- Put the towers with small range (usually the ones you afford at the beginning or some fierce, but short-ranged, ones) as near as possible to the turning points in the maze. This way they will keep firing for a longer time.
- You have to put the long-ranged towers the middle of the map. Consider that most of the times their range will increase when upgrading them! This way you will cover a good deal more of the trail the enemy walks on. Or else you may render worthless a fair amount of their prolonged range.
- For any tower defense game, it is necessary to use towers with slowing effects! It's best to put them before groups of towers which will inflict massive harm.
- If you realize that you'll deal with self curing enemies don't scatter your towers to much. You don't want them to have time to regain their strength.
- If there are poison towers, they belong to the beginning of the maze, and at precalculated intervals (to poison the foe again when the effect wears off).
- Upgrades: you have to figure it out, while playing a tower defense game, which towers are especially worth upgrading. I.e. upgrading a slow tower might be more beneficial for your defense (and cheaper) than upgrading the whole group of towers behind it. Nevertheless, on petite maps and towards the end of the game, you will be strained to go for quality over quantity (especially if the enemy has armor!).
- In some tower defense games, some enemies are more susceptible to harm from certain towers. Uncover which, if the case, and use it against them! Some might hurt more from fire, others from poison.. well, it depends on what tower defense game you are playing
A great place to apply these tips and to start winning right now is this: New Tower Defense Games. There are over 100 tower defense games and originalones are added frequently.
