Good idea, bad execution. Needs polishing and more content but it is playable. Kind of forgettable if you are not a Kingdom Rush fan. Grab it on a sale

Great Idea, solid attempt however incredibly unpolished execution. Before you read this review, please understand the context. 1. This game was designed for mobile under a subscription based gaming model for non-gamers (Apple Arcade) thus has a wide audience target. 2. Ironhide is an indie company with scarce manpower and cannot keep updating an old game while also pumping out new games (there is another live service as well). Legends of KR was Ironhide's attempt at a turnbased roguelites using the KR IP, and on paper it works wonders. The expansive world building and the incredible art was the most appealing part to me. The gameplay loop tries to be unique with random encounters, dice rolls, and a party system. It is unqiue but it lacks depth, every idea can be expanded upon yet due to the design nature of a casual 15 minute run, it falters. When it works well, it is ok, and when it doesn't it feels like a quagmire. The gameplay loop is way too grindy, a 15 dollar game should have some progression but if it is locked behind 40+ hours for shallow features, then its feels grindy to have fun. Due to the nature of rougelites this game feels hard, but really it is not hard just that a wrong decision is very, very punishing, sometimes run ending. I have no gripes with that, but the characters are not balanced making the gameplay somewhat skewed. Armor is an extra layer of HP that characters can have in this game, they soak physical damage before subtracting from the main HP. Magic users with magic attacks are incredibly strong, as they can ignore basically half of the enemies or your teams effective HP. The game tries to compensate by giving their physical counter part, more damage, status effects, and mobility. That is not good enough, and even if it was, the necessity of magic users are diminished substantially. Any game with an AC system should reduce damage by percentages, not flat reduction. It makes magic necessary and doesn't make physical damage feel miserable. Status effects is another layer that the game try to make feel in depth but executed at a very surface level. Most character have special abilities that can immobilize, buff, or debuff other characters. Most of these abilities have an additional effect if the target is already immobilized or debuffed, typically much more damage or stronger debuffs. The game encourages chaining attacks to swiftly and efficiently take out enemies without bleeding the tank too much, however the game has a terrible initiative system, in which you have no agency to change, that can and will change from random counters. Most of the status effects expire in 1 turn, so if you dont have things planned to the very extreme, it is very hard to take advantage of this chain system. If an enemy's turn lands between two of you characters, then you cannot chain anything on that enemy. If extending the status effcts's duration is too unbalanced, just add an additional lingering effect without debuffing the target, that even when the OG effect expired, you can still proc that bonus. Overall 7.7/10 A solid C+ There is heart behind these creative decisions that were completely outside their comfort zone. They clearly tried something new and fun with KR, had it not been for the apple arcade exclusive design philosophy, this game can be expanded to a 100+ hours of gameplay with actual depth. Should you buy it? Only on sale. Should this discourage you? No, these are my experiences, if it bothers you, look to the community for mods. Should you play it? Absolutely, show support for these indie devs.

It isn't perfect and will freeze from time to time when playing on a Mac but the simple tactics are fulfilling and my biggest complaint is that there isn't enough content. Good game.

Most of the negative reviews are mad that this isn't another tower defense game. If you're looking for a tower defense game, this obviously isn't one. It's a pretty good Tactics/roguelite game. Pretty much all of the available party members are capable of standing out in combat, and the combat encounters in every zone are different enough to keep things from getting repetitive, but I wish it was longer. There are also a lot of situations where a single bad dice roll or damage RNG can ruin the whole run. I guess that's not unexpected from roguelikes/roguelites though.
