Reviews for "Last Town"
The main problem I can see with this game is that the upgrade tree allows you to help shoot yourself in the foot. The first upgrade for each unit type is always a skill which can be used if at least one of those units is on the field. But those skills only become available for use if a zombie drops a star to activate it and it is randomly assigned to one of the unit skills available. But not all of these skills are equally useful. The farmer's ability to deploy an apple tree is far superior to just about all the others. As such, upgrading most other units is a bad idea since you are costing yourself apples which can be used to deploy more units.
It would be better if the stars could be used to activate any of the available skills.
Later in the game it's best to put most of your units near the front so they can hit every incoming zombie. Otherwise they will be cut to shreds by the ranged attack zombies before they can land a blow. Fully upgraded farmers are basically roads blocks. They are all but impossible to kill and block a lane completely.
Everything about this game is awesome.
Storyline, graphics, sounds, game play, characters, upgrades, enemies... Difficulty progression can be very challenging, but still in the fair zone.
I also like how at to points of the story you must decide who will remain the team.
Very good game. Also, I knew all the time the powerful team would turn up being the farmers, because of the apple trees haha
Thanks for this.
It's a fun game, but very flawed. As others have said, there are bugs and misspellings galore. For example on some levels you don't regenerate apples making it almost impossible to win. Also there are too many unknowns. It would be cool if abilities had some sort of cool down, or if units had stats you could check. If this game was fixed and expanded upon it would be absolutely amazing.
I really love the concept of this game. There is a fun story and your choices seem to make a difference for the game later on. I would have given 5 stars if it werent for the bugs some people here already mentioned. At some point the apples wont reproduce themselves anymore and then when you restart the game at the same spot they do again. Also I noticed that especially during the (really hard) boss fight the special abilities would not work even if I still had villagers of that specific type... Last critique is about the boss at the end.
[SPOILER]
That one move where he just grabs one your people and they disappear seems to happen just randomly and sometimes he would just grab all of my people one after the other when at other times he would only grab one or two. Maybe you could put a limit to how often he can use that ability cause it is super strong...
[END OF SPOILER]
Anyways it is a great game that eventually I did beat and now I will try again with a different strategy ;)
