@lakawak: the numbers are for unlocking the initially locked gem types, and all the freqquent shortcuts are on the left hand... I personally thinks that the controls are perfect, and the limited tower types at the start adds a lot of variety and challange to the game.

This whole game is ruined by the fact that they inexplicably got rid of hte NUMBERED shortcut keys. IT is as if htey forgot the definition of SHORTCUT. IT is supposed to make it easier to comlete tasks one handed (since your one hand is on the mouse) without having ot look down at hte keyboard! So...maybe instead of making the shortcut be hte first letter of what you are doing, you keep the other way the older games had and have them the nubmers since htey are ALL RIGHT NEXT TO EACH OTHER! Why I am in the heat of battle, I don't want to have to figure out what key my finger is on and say "Hmmm..I think I am on the M key to up my mana...let's hope I am not on N to star the next wave instead!"
I also think that being able to choose your gem makes it just like every other tower defense game that exists. But the shortcut key change is a dealbreaker.

Never loved this series, but clearly a lot of people do. Pretty standard TDF with nice presentation and a unique mechanic. It seems fine, I'm just not that into the gem crafting and TDF are definitely more of a time killer than "fun." Also, I realize it is probably near impossible to make money as a flash dev releasing free games, but do we really need the "more games" button RIGHT NEXT to the "back to map" button? They also look exactly the same and the "more games" button is 1st (Latin-derived languages left-to-right reading), so it is even more likely someone will accidentally click it. Clearly trying to trick people into clicking the wrong button. Pretty sketchy even for a free game.

I purchased the upgrade via "gamer safe" and I am going from hosting site to hosting site trying to find a way for it to work. It vanished from both the main page of the game and from newgrounds, and it is not honored here.

The only thing I miss is is to see on which settings my highest xp was achieved on any certain field. Surely, it will not be added here, so just a suggestion for the future :)

"Buy the premium edition ... and it will be easier to get the achievements". Got a popup that said pretty much this. Although I quite enjoyed the game so far, blatant pay2win for achievements is super disgusting and kind of ruins the point of achievements in the first place.

you can always tell who doesn't have premium in the comments... anyone who claims their favorite gem is anything other than chain, mana gain, or multi damage, has clearly never played endurance mode...

I still love this game and I keep coming back to it. The setting and mood are beautiful. And the monsters! No qualms about killing bugs. :D
The only downside is that about halfway through, it becomes so much grinding. I've replayed old tiles and leveled up as a wizard, but it's been over a week since I've won a new field. I'll keep going, because I do love this game, but just saying - it takes some serious dedication to complete this one.

Great game with some nice improvements over the prior entries to the series. This game does take a lot of time to complete though. My only real complaint, the fourth epic stage is a lot harder than the last one with the right strategy. Should be reversed in my opinion.
