Congratulations! You just won the Didn't Touch My Gems Badge and 30 points!
Very easy game. It NEEDS hotkeys though. Seriously.
3/5, due to being easy and not having hotkeys.

Quite possibly one of the most challenging, enjoyable games i have ever played on kongregate. Major props to the creator.

Kind of messed up that boss ninja aren't revealed by using meteor like the smaller ones are. Really messed up my strategy when I found that out the hard way.

I use a fire tower near the entrance to deal with Ninjas. It makes them use their invisibility early, and as soon as one goes invisible it will switch to the next one, without having to wait for the reload time the other towers have.

Oh, btw, I think the Assassins have a way to high "Dodging" rate.
I mean if I'm trying to get brilliant and an Assassin comes along, then I'm screwed.
If there is a sequel, I suggest you decrease the dodging rate of Assassins please.

For ninja bosses like the one in 14th, make a ice tower with fear strike first (by placing one at the edge of the map) If you're lucky the ninja will waste some of it's 5second stealth by running backwards.

This game is really awesome, but i hate the ninjas! they are the only guys who ever actually steal my jems! make them only have a 3 sec invisibility, because they are REALLY making me loose interest in this game...

I would LOVE a survival mode. I feel like right when I'm getting into the groove of things, the game ends. It leaves me wanting longer matches because it's so fun.

Holy crap this game needs spell hotkeys. I am literally maxed out and I cannot click the spell button fast enough to kill the invisible bosses for the last couple stages...

What is this i just got stuck on lvl 9 cause theres like a monster i killed that refused to die and i got a gem and u cant press atk and im on wave 30 and the boss died

Fu*ck invisible mobs, especially bosses. freakin impossible to detect and totally impossible to defeat before they touch my freakin jewels.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
I'd suggest making a tower that detects invisibility at max level. Hotkeys please. Anyone else think the thing the guys holding on main page looks like a big pick of destiny?

About ninjas, there are 3 strategies to counter ninjas, to get brilliants on the last few levels, you must use them all.
1. Put a tower near the entrence(s) to "trigger" the smoke bomb early so they are unprotected near your real defences near your base (Note this will not work with fast ninja bosses or small maps)
2. Splash Damage, either the missile tower or the fire tower will trigger when an enemy is detected, this will ALSO attack any ninjas in the radius. This is less effective in pure ninja waves.
3. Instakill/fear/freeze, the fear towers are devistating on both ninjas and others alike.
4. Obviously comets to kill the ninjas the slipped by.
--
I want to point out, a winning strategy for me is mostly red explode towers and fear towers, but other tactics might work as well. As for those rogues that dodge, I recommend using the frenzy spell to kill those with ease. :) PM me if you would like any additional help

One of the better TD games. Kept me coming back a few days in a row. More levels would be nice. PLEASE ADD A STAT RESET BUTTON. I feel I don't get to try out enough of the great aspects of this game. 5/5

I have beat the game with all 15 brilliants. I have to say, this game is amazing. Though when it comes to the last ninja bosses its all about upgraded meteor strikes and timing. For those struggling, I recommend focusing on the demon and undead path, and dont be afraid to replay for xp.

I think this is one of the best TD games up to date.
It's soo simple yet soo enjoyable.
I spent days hooked onto this game, and I still am.
As everyone was saying, hot keys would be nice for the spells.
I expect to see a sequel with more towers and lvls just to add to the fun.
Otherwise great game!
It's a 5/5 for me without a doubt.

NINJA DEFEAT STRATEGY HERE (Does not work on champs): The ninjas just can't be targeted. They can still be hit. The aura temples can hit them if another enemy is in range.

I'm not really a TD fan and have only really enjoyed 2 in the last few years: GemCraft and Bloons. I have to say I can now add this as a 3rd. Well done in so many ways and kept me entertained!

Brilliant Shine Challenge- is not as easy as it seems, the ninjas on the 5th are really hard. took me to leveling up till level 12
4/5 - everything is good, but more towers and less repetitive game-play please
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
anyone see a max level? because without the ability to redistribute the points, if the max level is lower than the amount of points needed to max everything thats kinda bull. i agree with hotkeys for spells, but i'd also like to see a larger upgrade system with more varience, for both the towers and the skills

The ninja smoke bombs are really overpowered. They should last for maybe two seconds, not five. They use them in the beginning, and by the time they wear off the things are already in your cave.

finally got brilliant on lvl 14
my hellfire tower on high ground blazed the 2.5k hp ninja boss, and i meteored him 5 times, so he died!! finally!!!

Ninja champions and pirates are too powerful, especially early on, 1 pirate wave managed to steal all five of my gems where no other wave could get close, except for the ninja chamion who i did not have enough mana to meteor 3 times. My 5 chilling crypts missed all their shots against the pirates, and my remaining defences could not do enough damage before they left the attack radius. Ninja's smoke bomb gives them just enough time to reach the cave regardless of the map, AND all shots fired at them disapear once they activate the smoke bomb (14 out of 15 of my crypts shots vanished against the ninja champion after he activated, effectly rendering their stockpiling ability useless)
