For someone coming afresh to the series (curse you, wizard! And your greasy peasants!) I can really appreciate why this game has such a following among casual and hardcore players alike. It may be very similar to the previous Kingdom Rush games (having compared notes with some rather dedicated fans of the first two games on YouTube I can safely say that it does appear very, very similar), but this doesn’t change the fact that its brand of tower defense is one that works. Well, perhaps they can, because the latest game in the series, Kingdom Rush Origins, is actually pretty great.

I must say that up until this week I wasn’t too bothered about this: ‘Pshaw,’ I thought, straining at the bonds of my ethereal prison, ‘surely no game so popular can actually be good? Surely the greasy peasants (thinks I, as the wizard’s greasy peasants prodded me with their pitchforks) that normally buy every Android game on earth and award it 5 stars on Google Play just for failing to transfer all their money to an account in the Cayman Islands, or for not laying its eggs in their heads and letting its insectoid young devour them from within, can’t actually be right about anything, can they?’ Because I was abducted by a wizard riding a griffin and imprisoned in a magical cave for the last five years, I didn’t play the first two Kingdom Rush games (that’s my excuse and I’m sticking to it, dammit!).
