Well-known mechanic.
Like we said Kingdom Rush: Frontiers It is a “Tower Defense” type game. In other words, the mechanics and the gameplay being well known, we will have a path to defend ourselves against the attack of the hordes of enemies. In Kingdom Rush: Frontiers the mechanics continue to be similar, there are few variations on the concept, however, it is much more than all of that. However, the goal is clear, we must defend ourselves from the siege of waves of enemies. For this we will have the possibility to build many different
Towers and fortresses.
To start, we will have 4 types of buildings, which can then be specialized as we see fit. Basically there is 1 defense tower and 3 attack towers. Defense towers are a blocking structure. It consists of a fort of soldiers who are posted on the road to prevent the advance of the enemy. Attack towers have different mechanics, one for arrows, another for magic, and another for heavy ammo that deals area damage. Each has its advantages and disadvantages, its statistics of speed there offensive. As well as different upgrade options that improve stats and give the game a lot of depth.
heroes and props
But as well”tower defense2 what is it, Kingdom Rush: Frontiers it does something beyond planting towers on a path. We don’t just build towers to defend ourselves. We have at our disposal a list going up to 16 heroes different. Each with varied abilities and attacks, as well as personal stats of health, attack, defense and speed. Each hero has 4 unique skills which they will use automatically but which we can improve as they progress. These improvements are obtained by using the said hero in the scenarios and making him an important element of the defense. With this you will accumulate experience and level up. Each time we go up, it will give us a point to improve our skills.
Avalanche help
But the thing does not stop there, in Kingdom Rush: Frontiers We will also have to manage two other elements. On the one hand, reinforcements that can be requested from time to time. These will help us stop enemies on the way when the going gets tough. In addition, we will have a special attack and a slow charge that will knock down the enemies that she catches in the middle. we’re going manage wisely when to use these aids, because if you waste them, you could have a really bad time if something goes wrong. When we beat a level we get 1, 2 or 3 stars depending on our performance. These can be used to upgrade a secondary talent tree which improves the efficiency towers or reinforcement
Versatility and surprise
Besides all this, Kingdom Rush: Frontiers It offers very changing scenarios. As we eliminate hordes, new paths will open up, completely changing the map and leaving our well-planned strategy to nothing. We will have to be quick to rethink how we defend ourselves against the new configuration of the scenario and how not to end up being a duck for the hordes. To top it off, at the end of the hordes of some scenarios, a final mini-boss will appear that can test anything built. Also, on some maps enemies don’t even follow the marked path, they appear hidden by a river or they attack you through some trees. All crazy to control.
CONCLUSION
