Today we offer you an overview, the impression of the new Tower Defense strategy called Little Bit Evil, recently appeared the App Store. We love this genre, as we consider it an ideal concept for a comfortable game on the touchscreen, and yet there is almost always a good mix dynamics, strategy and tactics. In general, here is where brainstorming and still please your eyes a beautiful picture.
Little Bit Evil developers decided to move away from the universal principle of "Carry the good, the bad beat" and offer the player to side with the forces of evil. However, to be more precise, in the universe of evil forces were in a position more suitable to their respectable opponents - lazy, but eager for money neighbors, finding a lack of money in the wallets, they decided to go the easy way and in the Lands pomarodorstvovat Evil. Thugs. Naturally, the ad took up the challenge and started the defense, which guide us and will do.
Little Bit Evil gameplay is a classic tower defence with towers and offensive lines enemies thinned with some innovations that make the gameplay more varied and flexibility.
We have an area of the map with the routes and entry points, from rushing the enemy. Unlike games where the player is free to place the defenses at any point there room for the possible deployment of weapons defined in advance. Such an approach is not less because a limited number of sites for development (and, accordingly, the towers), increases the demands on tactics.
to build towers point designated in advance. From the first second of the start of the card of the player is required to quickly develop a protection plan. Fortifications, despite its exotic appearance and name, operate in accordance with the canons of the genre.
Cheap tower goblins arrows - low damage, high attack speed, work on the ground and the air. Compact tomb with guards, skeletons - not fires, but these same skeletons are blocking the way to the enemy and in the process cause him damage in the melee. This adds mortar (analog artillery - strikes is rare, but is strong and on the area), sorcerers, defense workers, discharged villains Hells magic, but for short distances and a few other types of buildings, which need to be used in conjunction with, and taking into account landscape.
Each structure has a multi-level system upgrades. Each subsequent improvement is more expensive, but it significantly increases the efficiency of the tower.
Gold - the ultimate resource for the construction of new towers and to improve existing ones. Extract it in several ways. The obvious - killing waves of enemies. In addition, the extra gold is given for the premature launch of the new wave. This is a very interesting innovation, stimulating the creation of the most effective lines of defense. Once a player observes that the first line is already idle, and the last successfully finish off the remnants of the wave, he Tapan on the icons at the edge of the map and meet new bombers. The difficulty is that in the heat of battle you forget about them :(
On the types of opponents we will talk about later, and now continue the story of the economic component of the game. It must be remembered that we are - the forces of evil, and our major resource in this case is the souls of dead enemies. After each successfully completed mission, we "credited" the souls of defeated, and the more effectively we have completed the game, the more we will give bonus shower.
Earned the soul spent on constant upgrades of towers. In the corresponding menu includes trees of each type of tower. What Grady tower in the first place - depends on the tactics, but go into something one does not make sense (why tell you later). The screenshot shows that in the process of improving the structure of the player will have to choose which branch to an improvement in care. Again, the choice of a particular type of modernization depends on tactics.
We turn to the most interesting, that is, enemies and gameplay in general. At first, the breach are mainly farmers. Without armor, and not very fast. It copes well with them and the initial Goblin tower. Later they were joined by thicker guys, and good command of a shovel. Against them, blocking the path of the skeletons are no longer so long. From level to level company invaders dilute priests, healing nearby allies, knights and even flying units.
Here enters into force the rule of "class-antiklass". Trying to put all the soul and money in a bunch of shooting light towers running smoothly until the moment when they will not go 5-6 soldiers in heavy armor, with shields. Arrows not really help here.
Skeletons seem a miracle, delaying anything and everything, but then the trail out archers and almost immediately demolished them with arrows, and then quickly pass through the defense line. In general, it is necessary to think.
Upgrades and tower development - it is not the whole game. Each card Little Bit Evil contains a so-called "place of power." It is a certain area, have certain properties that can help the player. On the first level is a river flowing through the path to follow enemies and slows opponents, passing her. It is wise to install at the crossing of artillery since its projectiles takes time to reach the target, and for the time of flight the enemy will move. On the second level, the player will notice a swamp. For a small amount of gold you can arrange it in a toxic explosion, then poisonous fumes will poison all passing nearby enemies.
Using all of these chips is often necessary to maximize the successful completion of missions.
Finally, we got to the special abilities. As you progress through the game we are different actions available, the successful use of which greatly facilitates the defense, and sometimes just save the game from imminent loss. It all starts with lightning, which can be held at any place card - the perfect weapon against enemy clusters erupting lucky. Teleport enemy some distance back - try not to kill her three knights, next to which there is a priest. However, once we move back the priest, as his spells do not quite live up to the infantry, and guns appears in extra time to shoot at the healer.
I'd like to talk about the game something else, but spoylerstvo - a thankless task. Just add your own impression on the charts. Picture of the game is very nice and dynamic, especially in HD-version for iPad. Frank brutality there, and you can play without fear to give into the hands of a child.
