This game is ridiculous. How in the heck do you get such high scores? I end up in the mid 3000's. :(

To this:

I'm done for now... let me know when I need to try again. :)

In just two days? How much time did you spend playing the game?

I spent way too much time playing, I actually got into the 7200's :) I think I have the top 4 or 5 scores, at least last time I checked.

Just Checked:

1 MarkW 20 7394
2 MarkW 20 7282
3 theague 20 7280


I'm going to have to play again soon!

It's not too hard once you look at the maps of a couple of people who have submitted high scores and then have a bit of a play around and find something that works for you.

the key is to remember that a few high powered towers are more effective than lots of weak ones, and to send waves of new creeps when your defences can cope with them without being overwhelmed.

with some of the bosses and the spawns you may need to "shuffle" i.e. let them get so far through your maze and then make a subtle change that forces them to abandon their route to the exit and pass past your key defences again (and again etc.)

Thats the key and some look / perseverance... Good Luck

I just found this thread. And I am SO hoping this game is only appealing to the menfolk.

Well?


So, after spending untold weeks and hours on DTD, I looked up more tower defense games..
FYI, DTD is by far the best of the breed,. seriously.

However I did find two others that are very good, the best is Vector Tower Defence
http://www.candystand.​com/play.do?id=18047 (external link)

Not as complex or scalable as DTD, but still very appealing and visually wonderfully as well.
Beating it on the easier levels becomes fairly straight forward once you (finally) realize the strategy required.. (I'll let you all find out for yourselves, but one hint, bigger is not always better in this game) But the harder levels? They get really hard ..

Have fun,. :)

VTD is just not my cup of tea, I don't know why but DTD just has that little something that keeps me addicted.
