Kingdom Rush Frontiers vs Total War Battles: Kingdom
Kingdom Rush Frontiers
Kingdom Rush Frontiers is the exciting sequel of one of the biggest breakout tower defense game since Plants vs Zombies, Kingdom Rush. Despite the similiar storyline, Kingdom Rush Frontiers provides its players with a whole new adventure with fresh maps and levels to play in, new towers to build and hence more tower abilities, and of course, a wider range of enemies (including the dreaded special units and bosses) and their respective abilities as well! Most interesting of all, the game even has multiple legendary champions that you can then deploy into the battlefield, each with their own sets of skills to bring to the battle.Kingdom Rush Frontiers stayed true to its root and yet still managed to deliver a much improved version that both hardcore fans and newcomers will enjoy. If tower defense games are your thing, this is one game you wouldn't want to miss out. Play it now!
Total War Battles: Kingdom
Total War Battles: Kingdom is the free-to-play version of a Total War game that is available on the mobile platform. Set in the medieval times, the game perfectly captures how things were back then - an era filled with almost constant skirmishes and conflicts between lords and fledgling kingdoms. The gameplay mechanics are pretty well-done despite being somewhat restricted - you can only bring a maximum of 9 battalions into battle, for example, and it does retain most of the Total War archetypes like city-building, army training, and battles.Unfortunately, Total War Battles: Kingdom definitely pales in comparison to any of the games in the main series mainly because it fell victim to one of the worst pitfalls in the free-to-play gaming industry: microtransactions. Don’t expect to get far into the game without spending real money first, but if you still choose to persevere, it would probably take you weeks of constant playing to get your kingdom somewhere solid enough for you to hold your own.
That said, the game is still a pretty decent albeit casual installment of the Total War series. Fans of the franchise or of casual MMO strategy games on the mobile platform may want to give the game a try.
