Plants vs Zombies
This felt a LOT like Plants vs Zombies.
Reviews for "Toys Vs Nightmares"
its a funny game but...
it needs a button that speeds the waves up (naturely must the waves get slower), starting fantasy points would be awesome as much as lower prices for the toys. the fact that its as like plants vs zombies is a heavy down for this rating, too. the game idea was good but the same concept over and over again gets boring with time.
A tribute is one thing.
But it's not really a tribute if nothing about it is different from the source material. Yes, the toy motif is original, but there is virtually nothing about the actual game that isn't absconded straight from Plants vs. Zombies. And what's more, you didn't even bring up Plants vs. Zombies as the inspiration (or more accurately, template) until the comments did.
I liked it :S
Very fun and addicting, but it looks a tad much like PvZ. Even though, I never saw a game like PvZ until now. And those who are complaining its a COMPLETE rip-off of PvZ, its not. Xplored added some of his own elements. If it was a complete rip, why would it be on the first page, daily featured?
Really fun game who enjoys the same style like PvZ.
4/5 ........ 9/10
Great game!!
Well done! Very entertaining and almost addictive! However I can't quite give it a perfect 5/5 or 10/10 because the game is rather unbalanced. I don't even mind the fact that the enemies literally start pouring on the play area but just that certain enemies are only affected by a few specific attacks from even fewer toys--ghostly types are especially notorious for this--is incredibly frustrating. But that flaw doesn't become apparent until the later levels which for me were levels 10 and beyond. I got stuck at level 13, ironically enough, due to this.
Keep up the good work and give more thought to balance in your games! 8/10 stars, 4/5 points to you.
Xplored responds:
When I personally tested and passed last levels (also quite easily at Nightmare difficulty), I used:
8 Slots unlocked:
Illustrated Book, Slime Catapult, Miner, Double Dino, Smart Alien, Kamikaze Bear, Baby Boom, Toy Car (or DollHouse, as you prefer based on your strategy)
Column 1, 6 Illustrated Books
Column 2, 6 Slime Catapults (upgrade to buy)
Column 3, 6 Miners
Column 4, 6 Double Dino (against Skeletons)
Column 8, all Kamikaze bears you can.
If you are able to well balance your fantasy you could be able to place even 2 Smart Alien (positioned in lines 2 and 5 they shoot on all 6 lines!).
Then BabyBoom and Toy car (or DOllhouse) at need.
Each one of our developer team has his own personal different strategy (and I'm not the most hardcore gamer here!)
What I can grant is that I passed level 13 and 14 as above suggested ;)
Try and have fun!
