  • topdeck55, on 10/12/2007, -0/+26Very fun :)
    • Lan14n, on 10/12/2007, -1/+12i miss warcraft 3
    • woojoo, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2sequel to The Towers 2?
    • eoncire, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5This is a good twist on a TD game. Really like being able to "trap" the creeps and make them go where you want. Nicely done.

    • heythisisgandhi, on 10/12/2007, -15/+2Well it's about time they made a corn-growing sim. Sim-Farm is totally dated.
    • seventoes, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10its called Mazing, and its the best way to beat a TD.
    • shinynew, on 10/12/2007, -6/+2Sorry for abusing reply but to all SC UMS player: The path finding is almost perfect, you cant play it like you would path D or sunken D.

      and to everyone else, if you like this there is hundreds of games like this that are alot more interesting on SC, and hundreds of other UMS maps that are amazing. SC should be like 5 - 10$ it is well worth it.
    • Boben, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1extremely fun
      what's a wave and how do you use it
    • cwshea, on 10/12/2007, -0/+15471 on easy. You guys?
    • bliz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1@seventoes

      but they don't work against flying creeps (in warcraft)

      also, some tower defense maps are built such that if there is no through path in your maze to the "other side", the creeps will attack the towers.
  • vgcf, on 10/12/2007, -7/+2Lemmings FTW!!
  • Br0wn, on 10/12/2007, -10/+1Testing... 1,2,3 success
  • cevil203, on 10/12/2007, -15/+2yea. can u say ripoff?
    • doddilus, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9is it really a ripoff when the first sentence on the page is:

      "A Flash based tower defense game inspired by a Warcraft 3 map called Autumn Crossing and a few other TD Warcraft III maps."
  • lucaswschmidt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1how do you send waves earlier?
    • ElliotShoe, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I'd like to know also
    • ElliotShoe, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Have to play Normal and up
    • MindStalker, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Its not available on the EASY but its there on the other ones.
    • RockLeePwns, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0not really. on easy there is a button with -send next wave- on it.
  • MicleMihai, on 10/12/2007, -2/+17To addictive, don't PLAY, you will become an addict !!!
  • Banjo180, on 10/12/2007, -16/+0Funny, this has nothing to do with a maze.... but it's good... so i wont bury it.
    • tdawson2012, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3You crete the maze, the longer it takes mobs to get from one end to the other, the more chance you have of killing all of them.
    • Beaver6813, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Try building a maze out of the towers...
  • mdp8889, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0this is soo much fun it reminds me of the custom games i use to play on age of empires
  • tdawson2012, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Reminds me of playing "Matrix" in Starcraft...Long live Blizzard!
  • Asriel86, on 10/12/2007, -11/+1Yeah, it's not a maze you create, it's just a series of defenses.
    • doddilus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+15and the best defense is to create a maze...
  • crossmr, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5Bosses are too hard. Frost towers don't seem to fire at them, and by level 28 boss you don't have enough money to really make a long gauntlet for him wind through, not and spend any real money on upgrading (which you need to do)
    • MindStalker, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2You can use the simple 5 gold one as a wall to make your maze and place the higher level parts inside that.
    • mwosh, on 10/12/2007, -5/+3I think you just suck at the game.
    • bobcrotch, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1yeah and the 5g towers upgrade to super long range high damage. They're like single target DD and the squirt towers are speed towers. It's optimal to maze with them for damage but they're to expensive.

      Just keep your initial maze upgraded and towards the middle of the game start mazing like crazy or else you won't be able to beat the later bosses
    • SpeedyG, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1You shouldn't start building a complete maze until VERY late. Build up a small maze area near the start, put a couple of "last defense" units near the exit, and fully upgrade as many units as you can. On easy mode, I can usually set it up so that you don't need any more units until the very last boss, who's usually defeated by just extending the maze around for one extra pass by the built-up units.
  • syruplord, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2This just took a whole hour of my time...very addictive
  • FuzzyHacker, on 10/12/2007, -3/+0Grate game, but the sound effects are not so good.
    It would be nice if someone could post more TD games where you create maze. (:
  • duddles, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3This is fun!

    I like dropping in a cheap tower to create a dead end, then they all go back, then sell the tower, then they go back in, rinse and repeat...
  • blizzok, on 10/12/2007, -4/+2***** this, pathfinding is too god. It's no fun, you can't find good defense patterns.

    I'm going back to sunken d.
  • Boben, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3The best way to beat it is to create to paths leading to the exit and leave both open. If you block one, it won't count as blocking if the other one is open so you can clog it and they will turn around
    doesn;t work against the fliers though
  • Appox, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1Damn, So hard
  • realitybias, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11746 is about the most I can get.

    How's everyone else doing?
    • Ford_Prefect2nd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Still trying, checking to see how the little guys react... if you don't give them anywhere to go they move through the blocks, if you make a line after that, it glitches and says they got to the end... my friend got 1359 on his first attempt if that helps you, still not a 1746
    • psg188, on 10/12/2007, -3/+16100 here
  • snaple, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1i cannot get past level 38. the lives just started going away after i couldn't keep up with the little money i had between building and needed upgrades. hell, the last boss i went against had 14000 hp.
  • Ford_Prefect2nd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Its dealing with the airborn ones well still maintaining your maze that kills you
  • JIMMMYYYY, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1lvl 36 T_T so hard
  • Ford_Prefect2nd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Oh, I should say my friend did that on easy... imagine that makes a difference... as long as there is enough levels I think easy would be more fun.
  • Artican, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1I don't get it. I killed them all, and it said I lost. WTF?
    • Artican, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1Ah, wait. Nevermind. I got it. Digg down if you're in the mood =P
  • HoodedSoldier, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3God this is addicting. thank you for distracting me from my homework.
  • JIMMMYYYY, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3nooooo i was so close. that little bastard at the end O_O you call easy mode easy? EASY?!?!

    http://img101.imageshack.us/img101/7937/noooooooooodg7.png
    • Platysquirrel, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0You have wasted space. That's a no no.
  • souled, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I got to level 49 on normal. The hardest part is trying to kill the current level before the next level spawns.
  • Appox, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1those bloody planes
  • JohnSteel, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Blah. Why does it come from two sides in normal and hard but not easy? 99.999% of Warcraft 3 and Starcraft maze maps have it come from just one side for a very good reason.

    The Player Mazes are useless. What difficulty are they for? Who made the maps and what score did they get?
  • jamesbray, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1There is a much better game called Master of Defense that this game is somewhat "similar" too....

    http://www.master-of-defense.com/

    James
    • topdeck55, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Yeah, that master of defense could not be a more boring tower defense game.
  • gmweezel, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Found a glitch; just click "send sooner" or whatever over and over.
    http://img172.imageshack.us/img172/3320/glitchhc8.png
    • preecep, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0version 1.0c goes some way to fix that. Some of the creeps still alive when you finish are subtracted from your score.
  • thadiusdean, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1264th place, not half bad. :)
  • ninjasfromspace, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1addicting!!
  • zenthax, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0well... level 48 and 2254 score in easy
  • mjpatey, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I love it, but sometimes it erroneously registers that all the guys escaped, before they're even out on the board. Anyone else?
  • MercFox1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I got 2264 on easy. It's not too bad when you realize that the pathway only has to be one square wide. If you do all cheap towers and use all your money getting Sniper Towers, enemies start to fall fast.

    Also, if you upgrade the Cheap towers you know planes will have to fly over, you have a much better chance of shooting down at least half of them.

    This pic is on Normal mode, almost made it to the final boss. Note what towers I have upgraded.
  • duddles, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Argh, got all the way to level 48 on hard but I couldn't win...
    • burkay, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Same here mate. Those flying bastards are just too difficult to stop.
  • JamoSmith, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2WTB cheat codes PST
  • burkay, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Awesome game. Much better than the original TD, IMHO.
    This is how I beat it in normal:
    http://img243.imageshack.us/img243/3936/image1ce6.jpg

    It almost worked in hard as well. Died in level 48. Up to 47 everything was cool,
    but at 47 and 48, I was suddenly overwhelmed.
    • zabaf, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Use his method. It workds easily and perfectly. I adjusted this slightly and got 46th!!!
      With a lot more skipping of levels you could have easily gotten 1st.
  • diwei, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Beating bosses is a matter of making an exit, selling a tower in your maze which allows for a shorter path, waiting for the boss to near that newly created hole then blocking it up with a cheap pellet tower again.
  • L0g1X, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4HERE'S THE SECRET!

    You use the $3 turret to build a wall, with just one gap. Let's say you have a diagonal line of turrets with the top right empty. When the units are near the top right, quickly sell the $3 turret on the very bottom right and build back a $3 turret on the top right. Vice versa when the enemy is near the bottom left. Keep doing this and the enemy will keep walking back and forth.

    It may help to direct all the enemies to the middle first by building a diagonal wall with a gap in the middle.

    Example Picture:
    http://www.unlimitedimagehosting.com/images/50463961.jpg
    Blue - Bad Guys
    Black - Wall of turrets
    Red - The turrets you keep selling and building back.

    Spend your money on anti-air towers because the only thing that'll get past your defense are air units.

    When you're on the last level, right before you kill the last unit, sell everything you can as fast as you can. The more money you have, the higher your score will be.
  • l33tN008008, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0This crazy ***** game...checked the link today morning and now i am back digging it after 6 ***** hours
  • stephenc123, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I've been at it for 2 days already.
  • JamoSmith, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Score board doesn't seem to work for me. I've made the top 100 (90s, 40s and 11th) and it has never actually put me on it. Anyone else having this happen?
  • duddles, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Well I'm trying to pass on hard... can anyone do it? What's the best strategy? I just get overwhelmed at the last two levels...
  • noerrorsfound, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1how do i created maze
  • JamoSmith, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Here is a video showing how to beat it on Normal, 6244 points:

    http://www.almostgaming.com/
    • kRabbit, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2@james
      Awesome, i've been struggling with level 48 for a while.
  • WoodenKimono, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I beat it with no escapees using nothing but cheap towers. I just created a convoluted maze filling as much of the screen as possible, while still leaving a trail. Then I upgraded my towers from the center outward into sniper towers. Upgrade other towers along the center line to take down flyers.
  • ph4n70m, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0I got 4764 on easy mode.... I just created a lane down the middle, where the creeps go to. It works nicely.
  • thydzik, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1stats on the towers would be good.
  • Flashman, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2In Soviet Russia, maze creates you!

    Sorry. I have a cliche disorder.
