Great Game. Gets my vote for best Tower Defense game (and I play a TON of TD games). Same complaint I have with most all the TD games, difficulty level is too low. But I think with the "simple" games that is the market trend. I really hope for a Cursed Treasure 2.0! And... just change the name of the game to "Don't Touch My Gems" far more catchy name.

Sonar009, your tip for level 14 sounds quite good.
Well, I filled up the spots (especially the high-floor ones) with crypts - Ninja Boss froze and my 4 Ballista Towers (upgraded Den Towers) around hit it while it was frozen. My meteor (shift-click) on the boss did the last part.
Upgrades needed for this tactical strike: Mind Control (Max), Mana Pool (Max), Ice Mastery (Max), Meteor Study (Max), Meteor Mastery (Max)
As you can see, these upgrades don't need a really high level to be maxed.
Some luck and you beat the ninja easily. Worked on my 1st try with this method.

Sample strategy > instead of placing Dens or Temples at the start of the map, put Crypts. When at level 3 or higher, crypts makes the ninjas freezing or dancing from the start. It'll help you buy some time to let the smoke bomb disappear. At the late game, you might want to maximize the use of the crypts especially the Fearful crypts. I won map 14 and defeated the last boss without using meteor on him. He just danced on the start of map and froze him to death

here's a tip for easy leveling and to put brilliant on all levels: You just to play on 2 race in your skill chart > Orcs and Undead (for Gold and Mana farming). The following skills are important: Gold Vault, Height Advantage, Cut Down Study, Bounty Hunting, Mana Stock, Mana Pool, Mind Control, Mana Extraction, Lich King, Ice Mastery, and Soul Vault. I recomend playing Orc first, then Undead later. You might want to put on max your Orc skills for easier leveling (it gets you money fast and kills fast). You might want to put some points on Basic Training

Great game! in another version it would be sweet to have a small xp bonus for a killing shot, to give you a chance to develop towers further back from the front. Also a view showing what parts of the path are in range of a tower, and maybe a 'slow enemies' spell?

Found a glitch - was in high speed in level 11, i was level 35... one character was thrown off screen, the round never resolved, even after i killed everything else

To those having trouble with level 14:
You can kill the boss ninja outright with 6 fireballs, which is achievable. Max mana pool, fireball damage, fireball cost reduction, and mana regen for good measure, then get the demon ability "adoration" which gives you 20 mana each time you build a temple.
Early in the level, cut down 5 red forests, and leave them empty. Make sure you have 500 mana when the boss ninja shows up. When he spawns, turn game speed down if it's up, wait for him to get hit, then shift-click 5 fireballs. Shift build 5 temples in the clear spaces, and then cast one more fireball. That should kill him.

URGH! I open up Kongregate today and my saved game is gone! I was working on beating lvl 15 and now it's back to 0. WTF?

hesodios: Use the shift key when you want to throw meteors then each click releases one so you can get upto 5 strikes which will kill champion ninjas outright if you hit right. Also, if you use freeze towers at the entrances (and nothing else) once these get fully upgraded they do a lot of damage to the ninjas before they go stealth and sometimes freeze them (easier to hit with meteors...)

the game is good, the skill trees are balanced and the game is fun. the only problem is that on the 14th level its almost impossible to get the brilliant badge cause u have to rely on the 25% chance that the frost tower will freeze it. you could add a skill that allows you to see ninjas, because other than that the 14th level is impossible unless u get lucky.

@Hesodios
For a lvl 14 brilliant rating I put those green balista towers near the entrance upgraded with the triple bomb shot. They hit for a lot and then I meteored his ass.

Could use hot keys...
Overall fun but a few glaring problems. Ninja Champions are insane first of all, it shouldn't be impossible to get a brilliant without having maxed meteor and mana unless you get lucky with a crypt. The game also suffers when assassins come into play... The insane doge rate is bad enough with the way they can sometimes just walk right through everything if you're unlucky, but dodging meteors? That's just irritating. Especially seeing as how it specifies "50% chance to dodge a missile".
Fix it so it can't dodge AOE, beams, and meteors, or at least change the description so it isn't so misleading.

How the hell you get a brilliant rating on lvl 14? I tried so many times and the last boss always makes it to the gem. Even when i 5 meteor his ass.

Congratulations! You just won the Didn't Touch My Gems Badge and 30 points!
By far my favorite achievement on Kongregate. Fantastic balance to this game.

ok i use to find ninja's anoying but compared too a 50%miss there nothing -.- i wouldn mind if even spells didn count towards that miss idk how many times iv missed a brilliant rating just coz 1 mob that took like 50 misses of 1 hit kill atks and just waddles off the map with my gem or even just touch it for a split second 50% is like sayin o this guy basicly is hit or miss he either takes all ur gems or he doesnt theres no strat to beat this just hope for the best dont make strategy games based on chance its anoying and i dont suck and just complaining i have all badges apart from the last one for the reason above -.-

a really good game, at first I thought the crypts would rule the game but I soon realized each tower plays an important part for each map. 5/5 *TIP* I noticed that having poision cloud critical huts made ninjas and assassians less of a problem

I am level 31. I have tried level 14 several times, and while I can kill most of the waves just fine, I cannot keep the last ninja boss at wave 50 from getting to my gems, thus ruining a brilliant score. I have all the mana and meteor upgrades, but even dumping all five meteors on him is not enough. He always gets to the gems with a sliver of health left over. I feel that perhaps he moves a little fast. Hotkeys would be nice. Other than those, no real complaints.
TLDR: the boss ninja in wave 14 is far too fast >.<

i like how the tower gets mor expensive if u buld more of the same type and also add hotkeys for spells and buildings

Love this game, it ran smoothly for me on both my new/fast and old/slow computer. There's just something about the game that makes it so addicting 5/5.

Pretty fun game, I like the aspect of being able to upgrade tower abilities by leveling up, ie poison effect, etc. Does get a bit frustrating though to be maxed in everything and unable to perfect the last two maps :(
