Kingdom Rush vs Total War Battles: Kingdom
Kingdom Rush
Kingdom Rush is one of the top tower defense games that you can play for free. After gaining its fame on ArmorGames' website, the franchise took off at alarming speeds as huge number of players from all around the world began to take on the game's challenge to protect the kingdom from the variety of enemies that are trying to rush-attack it. The game is relatively fast-paced for a tower defense game, since there are plenty for you to consider before you even set up your very first tower. Different types of towers play differnt roles and have an advantage over specific enemies, after all. The positions of your towers are also crucial since these positions are fixed on the map and that yuop can't exactly buy more. There are also several spells at your disposal so you can use them when the going gets tough.If you’re a huge fan of tower defense games, Kingdom Rush is one of the modern classics (like Plants vs Zombies) that you should definitely play. It retains many of the classic tower defense format and still manages to bring plenty of its own unique features to the table too. Hours of entertainment and challenge awaits you at Kingdom Rush, so be sure to check it out!
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.
