Lords Mobile: Tower Defense Wiki

The key here is you pay to win this game. Just like all the MMO war games, this one engages in microtransactions and special one off buys (in realm of over 100$) which create a wide gap between somebody who would pay a single 50$ for a similar console game and would work through getting all the perks. This creates a huge number of whales that spend big money (probably more than $1000 and by some estimates must be more than $5000) tns completely edge you out. Good luck having fun when your time and some money get completely wrecked by somebody who apparently has nothing better to do but spend $1000s of dollars. So totally unfair and not fun. **In response to developers: no you don’t take advice because if you did you wouldn’t have buyable heroes that give not enough medals to get to higher levels. I have to spend over two hundred dollars to get buy-only heroes over blue rating. Probably over 500 dollars to get to purple. And probably another thousand to get over yellow. This is insane. You are shamelessly making it fun only for people with massive bank accounts. AVOID THIS GAME IF YOU DONT MIND HAVING YOUR KINGDOM RAZED BY A BILLION PLUS PLAYER EVERY OTHER DAY. Yes. It’s that bad.

I have player for 4year’s and love the game! The latest upgrade I lost my two big accounts and was given a new baby in a protected kingdom. I have to stay there until it opens. I have contacted IGG many times and they blow me off. Keep telling me 3 to 5 days! My first ticket was not even recorded as turned in. Has been a week and I still can not get into my old accts. The have both been hit and zeroed snd leader taken. Igg would not e en put up an emergency bubble to protect my accounts! I have spent thousands of dollars over the years and now they treat me like this! Only ones they pay attention to are the billionaires! I am going to uninstall it, and i was the leader of my guild too! Not only this but youth” great ungraded” dumped me in a protected kingdom in a c1! It’s all about the dollar! You could care less about the players! Try selling when everyone lave because of your high prices and low gifts! It took me 6 weeks to get my other account and got NO compensation for all I let, even after i begged to to put one up for me! Vampires are what you are

This game is the best and most addicting mobile game I’ve ever played but sadly this game was made around P2W which really does break my heart I maybe put in around 60$ into the game to speed up some buildings and stuff but of course the more you play the more you see how it’s P2W like the best hero items for war you have to spend 100$ to get a bundle that comes with a couple of chest to hope the RNG gods will give you the right items and even if you were to get the best RNG you have to still buy like 10 more since you have to upgrade the item like 4 times and each time it takes more items to do it so if you want a chill 75 day game this one will win you over but after those 75 days are over your kingdom becomes unprotected and you have all the P2W players joining your fresh new kingdom to try and rule it and it becomes game over for people who haven’t spent around 1k$ in bundles like i said I spent around 60$ and played for more then 75 days and I’m only at 14mil might you have people who are in the billions in might which I’m telling you is impossible unless you spend around 5k$ especially seeing the items the billions and some millions got it’s mind blowing that they make all this money but yet still can’t make a monster that drops the items at like a 1% chance to at least be able to obtain the items for free instead of putting a message saying that these items can only be obtained in the shop bundles just mind blowing logic

So yes I agree with most other people commenting here you have to pay big to have a shot at being a heavy contender in this game. To give you a reference point I’ve invested 200$ and approximately 2 hours per day for 2 months of my time and I have a level 24 castle and decent tier 3 troops. I’d say with the investment I’ve made I’m probably in the top 20 % of players if I had to guess based on what I see. I think to get to a level 25 castle and have decent tier 4 troops your talking either another 3 to 4 months of playing or paying another 50$ plus 1 more month of playing if I had to guess. To put things into perspective my “ might “ which is a strength system this game goes off of is 11 million. This “ might “ level represents the culmination of all your armies, building levels, resource gathering capabilities etc..combined to spit out a might number. I run into people regularly with over 100 million might that could literally kill me with the flick of a finger and I’m pretty strong. So I guess what I’m getting at is yes the game is fun but if you want to be at a competitive level and actually have fun playing... you’re looking at spending at least 250$ to 300$ and a few months to get to that level. I’d say if I spent zero money it would of took me 2 years to get where I’m at now.. at least 2 years. So either be prepared to spend money or be prepared for the long haul just know what your getting your self into.

This game is great. The farming and leveling up aspects of the game are enjoyable and in depth. But this game critically needs some type of skill/strategy added to it so that it’s not just ‘the big guy wins’ each time. I’ve been playing for over a month now and have gotten on each day. Now that I am a regular player I am able to take down smaller enemies etc. But to dominate this game is simple: spend the most money or have the oldest account. This needs to be revised. There needs to be more interactive defense and attack mechanics so that defending and attacking players can still have a fighting chance to save some resources/damage/troops when invasions occur. There should also be more interactive alliances — making it so that established alliances between guilds are accepted and broken by only the rank 4’s and rank 5’s in a guild. When an alliance is active, no one in the guild can attack the opposing guild without a rank 4 or 5 player deactivating the alliance first. When an alliance is ended, the other guild should be warned by the system that it has been canceled and that enemy troops are approaching etc. (just a thought). But there needs to be more player involvement integrated into the game. (Allied guilds should also be able to rally troops together and take on monsters and dark-nests together.) All in all, I rate this game 3 stars. It’s got great potential, but for now it is still missing the mark.

I used ALL my x1 and x2 travel speed ups for the Lords Cup, and someone else made it exactly the same time as mine, and you gave it to them! There should be a limit on how many times a player can hit it, because the same person was spamming it so nobody else could hit it! I had so many speed ups saved up, I used all of my training speed ups for troops for the Lords Cup, and I could’ve used those speed boosts for better things! This was the first time I was able to participate in the Lords Cup, and now I have no interest of ever participating again. Now I have no training speed ups, no travel boosts, and way too many t1! I put up 8 hour shields and it deactivates after 7 hours. Not 7 hours and 59 minutes, exactly 7 hours. When I’m asleep. The research times are ridiculous. 30, 40 days?! It’s impossible for F2P to grow with all the huge, 1 billion might P2P players burning you all the time! And the shop, jeez! $100 for a bunch of crap? What happened to the .99 cent packages? It’s all 1.99 now! What’s the point of notifications? I didn’t even get a notification that I was scouted, and I only got a notification that I was being attacked when the attacker reached my turf! Notifications are useless! I put on a 24 hr shield at 6 pm, it’s supposed to go to 6 pm the next day. Nope! It ended at 1 pm! It’s been 13 hours since I put it up. It says it had 7 hours left, when instead it should be at 11 hours! You need some maintenance to do!

It’s was actually one one my good friends who got me into this game. It’s fairly simple and pretty addicting if you are in to RPG and RTS...that being said from the start you are giving just enough to keep your castle scratching the surface. In order to really compete, monster hunt, attack and defend your castle you are going to have to spend between $60-$99. I’ve been playing about a week or so and purchased a “starter kit” I think it was $9. But honestly, trying to build fast before your free shield drops is...useless. You are more than likely being scouted by the serious P2W players. So find a guild ASAP. Because the serious P2W players clearly run the show. Its nearly...no wait its impossible to defend your castle, guild or kingdom against most/all of them. We can’t really blame the developers though. It’s a cool game and they should be paid for their efforts and upkeep of the game and servers. They do an excellent job in that department. But maybe there should be a threshold or a limit you can spend daily, weekly, monthly or even a break limit that would separate us casual players who may spend a few $’s here and there from the the serious P2W players who are spending a ton more. This game would be a lot more balanced and fun if I was being attacked and could only attack another player grinding like myself.

I played this game for a few months, pretty consistently. I didn't spend any money in all that time although I could have thrown the developers a few bucks since I did get a lot of entertainment out of it. There's a lot here to do, but you really are going to be a nobody in this game unless you spend a ton of money, which is one reason why I never spent anything, it wasn't really going to do anything to spend a little bit of money when everyone else is spending thousands. If you do want to spend that kind of money, just buy yourself a PS4 or a PC. Like most games, it gets repetitive after a while and there really is no end to the research and building, although after a year or so you might be able to max out all of your buildings. The big issue in this game is the conflict is almost always one sided, with the really powerful players just going after weak players. Getting attacked isn't so bad, but it does get annoying. It'd be more fun if the kingdoms we're organized in a way that players of a similar might were together but that would probably discourage spending money so it's unlikely that'll ever happen. So if you want to spend thousands of dollars on a game for your phone, this is probably a good investment, otherwise, save yourself some time and find a different game.

This game is very addictive! However, the more and more I’ve played these past weeks and crunched numbers, I’m started to believe you have to be a millionaire to play and win. But now... with each update... you’ve got to have an bottomless money pit. My husband and I both play this game. And if any of the developers are listening... please please really listen. In my guild there are several kids. Teenage kids from developing countries who have no business spending their money on this game. However, just a chance to escape reality and a way to just be a kid, they’ve latched onto this game. I continue to pay and play this game in order to protect these kids from big bad cyber bully billionaires who have nothing better to do than destroy the financial investment (fortune to these kids... hell, fortune to me too) these kids have made. However, when our kingdom opens up... I have no idea what I can do any longer. I have children myself. And I would never ever let them play this game or anything similar. It’s such an amazing game and I was very impressed with the translation tool. It breaks many many language barriers. It allows people from all over the world who are all different nationalities to play together as a team with no racism. This game has the potential to be something super positive in the world. And it’s a shame that it’s pushed further and further into an cyber casino.

I can sum this game up real quick for you. The concept and mechanics of the game are decent. The falloff starts with the money problem. They call this game a “strategy” game. It’s about as far from that as possible. In fact there really is no strategy. It’s whoever has the bigger army wins. Usually this means whoever has paid more money because advancing is painful and slow. To make matters worse, advancing becomes almost impossible due to the “pay to win” players raiding your village as much as 4 times a day sucking every resource till it’s dry. Meanwhile you can do nothing but watch your village be sucked dry of everything because unlike most games with a ranking system. A level 60 in this game with thousands of dollars invested can attack a level 10 player and still earn just as much off the attack as any other player. They DO NOT care about the non pay to win players nor those just starting the game. Prime example of game Devs only caring about money. There is ZERO strategy. I am attacked daily by people 30 levels higher with as much as 100 times the troops. Not only do they have more troops but they are higher level. I sometimes kill as little as 50 of their 200K troops because the game is so unbalanced. So if you want your money to go into a greed app go for it. But know there is no such thing as care or empathy to new and average players. Just don’t even bother, this game isn’t even worth burning the occasion 2 min of free time you have.

The game creator give zero care to player enjoyment and engagement. The balance of power is mediocre at best (people can literally get 50x times stronger than you in the first day of a new kingdom not because they played as much or know the game they just spent a lot of money. Even if you try to spend little amounts here and there the game ultimately puts YOU at a disadvantage if you don’t commit to buying out the store every day. Every update there’s more expensive toys for those who spend heavy amounts of money. But that’s not all, recently a severe miscalculation in currency caused people to get deals off packs very easily. Instead of owning up to this mistake they banned people telling everyone playing that they were cheating when it was totally IGG’s fault that it happened with their incompetence. To make this worse for everyone who still spent money on these deals they were forced to pay the non advertised increased price or have their account held to ransom. To be clear this is ILLEGAL you can’t force people to pay a non advertised increase price in anywhere but because IGG is placed in Singapore they don’t have to follow laws that apply ANYWHERE ELSE. This basic apathy for players shows just how little big companies care once they are on top for the consumers who put them there. If you’re looking for a game to play just don’t play a mobile cash cow like this.

This game was really fun when my husband and I started playing a year ago. There was always something to construct, research, forge, and train. As we got higher, wait times got longer. Which isn’t that big of a deal if you’re even a little bit social because of the amazing people you meet on the game. There’s days that the only reason you log on is because of them as you have 100+ days left before your research finishes. A few months ago, however, the developers began to get greedy. They decided offering buyable heroes that takes $11,000 to max is a good idea. It went downhill fast from there. They are slowly edging out the free to play and moderate pay to play spenders (like myself) in favor of only having the ones that can spend more than a house costs. This is evidenced by their latest update coming in a few hours. The shields that protect our troops when we’re not able to be online (you know when we’re working for the money to spend on the game, or sleeping cause we aren’t bots), will no longer be effective against attacks. They have received countless complaints about this, but it seems they no longer care to listen to even the ones that do pay. I will lose so many of my guild mates if they implement this, which will cause me to quit as well. So they will successful in only wanting to have $$$ spenders. So if you can spend upwards of $50,000, then this game is for you!

The gmail to my 1.2 billion might account was hacked but I still had access through Facebook. I contacted IGG and explained what happened. They said they would help me and return the items the the hacker stole after I provided information. I sent the information. Then they said they would email me. They emailed me asking for more information. I sent the information then they responded asking me to give them the city and country of every place I have used the account in. I travel for work all around the world and pass through a lot of cities that I don’t even pay attention to I just play the game while I am in transit. I even play on the airplanes and and have no clue what area I am over but now IGG is not going to help me. I have even sent proof of the hacker trying to get money from me to return the email account to me but IGG did not care they still refuse to remove the email. I have 5 pay to play accounts and they just blew me off. I am in the process of recovering my money through my financial institutions and filing a complaint against them through the BBB as well as looking into other complaints since they are a publicly traded company. Everyone warned me about IGG customer support being a waste of time and it is true. Game is okay until a problem comes up but there will eventually be an issue and you will be left to deal with it yourself..

I’ve played daily for over two months. The game is literally designed for you to fail unless you put money in- which isn’t that terrible except the amount is very unbalanced. Gems are basically needed but unless you spend $99, it’s only a few thousand that quickly run out. The events are rigged and you’re punished for playing in them. The Dragon Arena was fun for about 30 seconds and then you’re incapacitated for the rest of the game. And what’s worst? You’re randomly placed in your kingdom, so you better hope you saved one locator. Most of events are impossible to win unless you fork over significant money and even then, more than likely, someone spent more than you so you still lose. And this doesn’t talk about the attacks from other players. It’s a war game, doesn’t bother me that I sometimes get attacked. It does bother me that it takes THREE days to rebuild my shield (and the more powerful you are the longer it takes) and how long it takes to recoup. And if your leader is taken? Just give up for a few days. The player that attacked recently was 558 million might. That’s more than most guilds combined. But the developers don’t care about the unbalanced of those who pay and pay and pay, and those who would like to play and have fun. And let’s be honest, if you want a war game and don’t mind paying, you can find much better developed games.
