Whoever last longer is the winner, and will get a crystal for a bonus. Multiplayer pits you against another player facing the same siege of monsters. Crystals are the real rare currency and the best way to get them if you are stuck in the local campaign is the multiplayer. You still receive coins for levels that you fail to successfully beat, so other than time there is little keeping coins out of your reach. In fact, half the fun of Defender II is the grinding process. You can choose to buy coins or crystals with real money to speed things along (and also obtain an ad-free version of the game) but it is completely unnecessary except for those who are very impatient. Coins are pretty plentiful crystals are limited to only two per level completed.

Coins and crystals are used to upgrade your cross bow, magic attacks (variants of a fire ball, lighting and ice), and your castle wall itself. With each enemy defeated you receive coins, for each stage completed you receive crystals.

Offering crisp, colorful graphics with simple but fun and engaging gameplay. Defender II would be so-so on a console, but as a mobile game it is a solid gaming experience. Tower Defense games and mobile games both have stigmas attached to them, so this may seem like a bold statement. Seriously though, Defender II is the best game I’ve played so far on a phone.

So imagine my surprise when I booted up Defender II and found a game that I could barely pull myself away from for the next several hours, even now it calls to me, taunting me to leave this review half finis… Even Angry Birds has never really struck me as amazing, rather just a game that was at the right place at the right time. Poor gameplay and free games that aren’t really free plague the casual game market in general, and this is equally true on Google Play. That said, in the past month I’ve given a fair share of the ridiculously large amount of free games on the Google Play marketplace a try and for the most part have found little if anything that really caught my interest. I know, I’m not always an early adopter, go ahead and make fun.
