Reviews for Kingdom Rush 5: Alliance TD

I was a big fan of the original games in the series so I was pretty pumped when I saw this. Initially it seemed like a great continuation of the series. The art was up a notch, gameplay was fun. But OMG the microtransactions are insane. Plan on spending $70+ to unlock all the content […]

The game felt quite short. For $7, I didn’t get any heroes or towers for free except for a very limited selection. It doesn’t have the same feel as previous titles, and it seems like they aren’t putting the same effort into the games anymore. Microtransactions have gotten worse, charging for additional towers. I’m worried […]

It’s just not long enough. You can beat it in a couple hours max. On top of that, it’s just the same game as all the others. If you want to use most of the towers and heroes expect to pay 50+ dollars. I hope they add more content, tweak, etc cause it is a […]

Probably least favorite in the series. It’s crazy how the longer this game is out, the worse the games get. They decided to go with only 5 tower choices again, which I hate. In this game you get two heros, but also the levels have two paths, which were always my least favorite maps. Plus, […]

My only concern is the save system. The game cloud saves and seems to be bad at it, as I have had issues where I complete a stage and then buy some upgrades, then close the game. When I come back, some of my progress is lost. Please fix this! Edit: the bug has gotten […]

I am a fan of all the kingdom rush saga, played all the 5 of them and other versions of it. This one, unlike others needs to be purchased. I paid the 10$ thinking it would be bigger, longer and greater than the others. All wrong. Yes, it has really good points resembling the others, […]

Diehard fan of the original Kingdom Rush & Frontiers. I’ve been playing and replaying for years. However, franchise has gone significantly downhill. Hard to put your finger on it, but graphically the game has gotten “busy”. There’s way too many towers now, too much in game purchases. It’s nowhere as fun as the original games. […]

Just one thing: the button to call waves early has to be tapped several times before it will work, it’s frustrating. Er, also, I kind of wish there was an actual reward for beating a level at 3 stars, you’re only rewarded with points if you pass at all, but if you replay & get […]

This series is one of the only games on my phone, I replay them frequently. On a side note, I’ve hit the restart button thousands of times, not getting any crystals at all despite rnd is rude xd. This game feels like if I gave the other games to an AI & asked for something […]

I had a lot of fun playing through this game! Beat the story had a good difficulty level and really improved on the game play by a lot! But what really bummed me out was how little you get if you don’t spend any money. You get 4 heroes for free, but since you use […]

I like this franchise. It’s one of my favourite tower defense series, and pretty good for the standards of mobile games. But the difficulty spike is really extreme. I consider myself pretty good at TD strategy, and there are some levels which seem impossible to beat except by switching to the lowest difficulty setting or […]

Game is not worth its $8 price tag. Shortest campaign in the entire series. Only took me 3-4 hours to beat the entire game. The microtransactions are also way out of hand. Out of 17 total heroes, you can only unlock 4 by just playing the game. Out of 19 towers, 10 are unlockable by […]

The premium towers/heroes are too overpriced. Its entirely unfair pc players get to have everything unlocked just for paying a bit more. Bloons td 6 is vastly more successful and they don’t charge you for towers or heroes. You are losing fans because of this. If i see this trend continue in your next TD […]

I am enjoying Alliance so far! I have been playing Kingdom Rush since it was online a looong time ago. This version has been disappointing me a little bit since earning stars is separated from upgrades. I’m no longer incentivized to go back and play perfect matches or try challenge levels. However, the maps, towers, […]

the kingdom rush series has a deserved reputation for high quality TD games, so if that appeals to you, you should like this. It is a bit annoying that you pay for the app and there are still heroes, towers, and campaigns that you have to pay for, especially to have to pay as much […]

nowhere near as good as the first 3 games. i dont want to make in app purchases in a game that i paid for upfront. while the game can be completed without making any in-app purchase, its just boring and too hard. the lack of an encyclopedia, boring towers that you get without in-app purchases, […]

MONEY GRAB! The art and gameplay are what I want. However, there are issues: Progression: Other KR games did it better. there is no incentive to 3 star or perfect a level. progression is just “did you complete the main mission?” Micro transactions: way to many for a $7 game. Sell skins or large campaigns […]

Game starts fun, but eventually, there doesn’t seem to be a way to three-star things anymore. Then it slowly gets more and more frantic until it’s just not fun anymore. Tower placement is chaotic, and by the 5th so level, you are now managing 4 spawn points and two paths. Way too early given what […]

It’s just a bunch of paid dlcs. If you want to play everything it costs as much as AAA pc game. Just absurd. These games use to be twenty dollars all in. The last two have just become money grabs. What’s worse is they aren’t as good as the the original three, that cost a […]

I have all the Kingdom Rush games and this one is definitely the worst. With the initial purchase of the game only about half the game is available to you. So many heroes, towers, and campaign levels are locked behind very expensive paywalls (most heroes and towers cost as much as the game itself). The […]
