its a really good problem..just one problem-its way too easy. Need to make some of the levels tougher, and add more units/unit spaces in order to make it more strategic, and make the monsters come less predictably, try using a randomizer

Game was fairly easy by using fire mage + mana shrine. Some instances lightning mage was a huge asset. Hardest stage was the right most "90%," but beat it using hypnotize shrine on griffons till mana income was built enough to build up army.
For those who keep commenting... creators do acknowldege "plants vs zombie" as inspiration.

With this strat, no units have gotten past me so far; 1:Always have Fire mage and Altar of Mana in your slots. 2: At the start of a batte, place an Altar of Mana about 3 squares in from the left in any row. 3: Wait untill the first enemy spawns, and when he does, place a Fire Mage in his row. 4: Wait for the second enemy to spawn and place another fire mage in his row, if it spawns in the same row as the first, don't mind it. 5: after you have a second Fire Mage, place another Altar of Mana, also in the third column, on the field. Continue with this strategy of placing units when enemies spawn, it guarantees row security. Continue making the Altars untill you have them across the entire 3rd column, other Mages are your choice of position, though be sure to keep them back.==IMPORTANT== Keep clicking those Altars!

I love games like this, but this game was really hard for me to like. The Mana Shrine really was the last straw. I can't STAND having to click on something for money/mana to buy more units. If it's NOT passive, it's not worth having. I also don't like not being able to replay levels. Even if it's only for a fraction of the money/points. It makes it WAY to hard to keep going if you get stuck. If you barely win a level, it was because enemies made it through and therefore you didn't get the money from killing them. Now, because of that you have less money to buy better units. Add onto that a bad purchase (you saved up money to buy a unit and you forgot to get another slot to take it into battle) and you and screwed.

Actually, never mind about hard mode being too hard. The game itself is too hard. Information beyond basic capabilities is needed, and for a game like this, building on a general strategy should be enough to go through the game - not grinding by failing levels for units (that aren't useful or efficient) and seeing how the level goes before crafting an unintuitive strategy specifically for that stage.

Hard mode is hard. In fact, a little too hard. As in, after the second stage, an entire line of crossbowmen that smash through a lane at random and make the level impossible to beat.

The graphics in this game remind me of Baldur's Gate. In fact some of the backgrounds look they belong in that series. This disturbs me for some reason...

middle game is really annoying because you end up in a situation where you generate mana to slow to efficiently buy the better unit in level but the weak units you can afford are no match for the upgraded enemies. Needs major work on balance and difficulty progression to be worth playing again. 2/5

A fantasy type, harder Plants vs ZOmbies.. not a bad idea.
But! I suspect you didnt playtest this game too well.
The starting tower is ludricously weak, the starting 2 slots for units is a stupid additon, serving only to hinde rnad limit the player, and forcibly reducing the amount of stratergy the game could have, and you seem to have forgotten P and Z's philsophy of giving stronger towaers as the enmy grows stronger.. though I dont expect anything as broken as the instant death plant but still.
With more playtesting and polishing this could be a great TD. Right now its painfully frustrating and limited. And I had always wished P and Z was harder, but this isnt the way to do it.

Just a couple of teeny nitpicks: It's "Ogre" not "Orge", and the grid blends in with the background too much. I've had to restart a few levels because I thought I had all lanes defended and I didn't. Other than that, FUN game! Very much enjoyed! 4/5!

I can only assume that this was computer-translated into English from some other language. I can get the gist of what's meant, but would advise getting a native-speaking proofreader next time!
Otherwise, though, pretty good!

Resistance of 90% is 150% more difficult then full resistance, guess what Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi wrote this game :)

This game is a total joke and yet another prime example of why developers should work with people rather than pigeon-hole players into "Build only my way or fail" dynamics.

Tips for people having trouble with the game: the main things to buy are the fire mage (you start with it so no problem there), the ice mage, the golem, and the mana altar (you start with that too, right?). The fire mage counters infantry, the ice mage counters cavalry (essentially), and the golem counters archers (it can't attack but it stops archers from killing your wizards, so it's like a counter). my ideal setup is:
far left column: mana altars (1-3). 2nd column: fire mage. 3rd: ice mage. 4th: golem. It takes a while to set up but it works wonders.

Suggestion: for areas where the background is a lighter color, use DARKER LINES FOR THE GRID. It's impossible to see on the snowy stages and (for me at least) that can make a bit of a difference...

one archer beats any mage, two in a row is just impossibe, even with all strategies possible, it's an unbeatable game, falls to 1/5 from a 3/5 with possibilities, .... it's a shame :(

I think it is very unbalance... Or reduce the mana costs, upgrade the time-of-attack or the damage, beacuse in certain point it's just impossible to beat the levels with more than 50% ... Cannot use more than fire mages and that's not enough.... very unbalance... could be great game, but just 1/5
