Does the king have a moustache or a broken nose? . Art, music not new, animations, gameplay... this game is awesome in all fields!!

Quick keys would make this game way better. Especially on those levels where there is a big rush to start. It's so hard to click the soldier up top (hope it's actually selected), place it (hope it actually places), click a barracks, place barracks, click a soldier for the barracks, etc. etc.
Having some of your clicks "miss" makes it really hard to go fast. I have tons of mana but I can't get my troops out fast enough so i end up dieing because they get too close and I can't build any more barracks to keep them away.

All the pieces of a very good game are here, but it just doesn't quite come together. The framerate drops ludicrously for such a simple game, there are some very strange design decisions (e.g. fully upgraded soliders must die as there's no way to heal them, the game gets more difficult as you upgrade your units because they become too expensive to summon at the start of a level), and the difficulty curve for me went from trivially easy up to level 14 (every level completed with 3 stars first time) to crazy at level 15 (can't survive the first onslaught).
I may be able to get past this by resetting my upgrades and deploying them differently, but I don't feel like doing that to work around what appear to be flaws in the design.
Frustrating, because all the right pieces are there, they just need tweaking.

Selecting units is awkward because they must be reselected after each upgrade, and must be upgraded in real time (how about a pause button to let us upgrade). Players have no way of knowing which unit is selected. Players cannot tell what level a unit in a barrack is without clicking it (no stars or chevrons to show from a glance?) Units are unbalanced. Not being able to heal units except through leveling up makes max-level units a liability, rather than a resource. Staff upgrade text should inform you what starting mana will be. Great idea, especially for something like an iPad, but needs a lot of work on the controls and interface.

For the people who are new and having trouble, pour your upgrade points into Staff Level and ignore leveling your units. This will give you much faster mana regeneration and thus you can get more units and level them up quicker during levels.

For everyone that is asking for a healer you have one....when your unit is low on hp lvl is up they receive full hp (at the new maximum). This means you have to strategically use your leveling, do you want to max your mage for damage or save your mana so you can heal up your paladin?
Also to the DEVELOPER:
a problem that has continued to bother me is when my soldiers is attacking they often push the enemy off screen, then should the enemy die and drop a mana potion i cannot pick it up. It would be nice if mana potions that are dropped off-screen would appear somewhere ON screen.
If you could fix that problem i think i could better enjoy the game with minimal frustration =D

Huge and sudden increase in difficulty after level 17-ish. Haven't finished the game yet, but level 35 staff, level 5 fire mages, and level 0 rain dance seems to be the only way to go. Keeping rain dance casted the entire time helps a ton - especially in early game. Mana regen in that five seconds more than covers the level 0 rain dance.

Need a way to heal units other than upgrading them.
Sometimes its hard to click on a soldier as its rushing to attack, dead soldier.
Water mage isn't completely useless, he attacks everyone in a row, just a bit under powered.

i found the game really easy, i would only struggle to start some of the later levels, but once i got a mage or two going, i had no problems, and 3 stared every level on the first try, very fun game, a couple additions could polish it up very nicely, like a healing spell

Great-ish game. Some terrible typos. The game ends up being so horrifyingly laggy that it's unplayable.. even at the lowest quality setting. I can begin the game at the best quality, but it just gets worse and worse. It would be ok if it slowed down a bit so I could actually act in time, that might make up for the lag.

why is the cost of units rising when you upgrade them in the skill tree? Upgrading them in the skill tree is only bringing me problems, because I don't have enough mana in the beginning of the level and the enemy destroys my manor right away. Please, don't make the unit cost raise when upgrading in the skill tree.

Use the archers for the last level!...and keep constructing barracks without any units in them, the boss will keep breaking them...

Was any thought put into the title of this game? (I don't think it features any dragging of nards, mine or otherwise.)

I know I'm not the only one to say this, but even at max speed the game is so slow as to be nearly unplayable. Add to that the difficulty of clicking the unit you want to upgrade, having to reselect the same unit every time you want to upgrade it, and the lack of hotkeys, and an otherwise promising game drops down to a 2/5 for me. There's lots of potential here that could make a good sequel, though.

At level 20 the game is impossible. I cant click fast enough to make a new unit :((( I have 3 stars all other levels, but at this the boss are too strong.

I agree with sirspikey and Prilleh. The upgrade system in the field is insane. Number the troops and have icons representing them at the top of the screen for us to click and upgrade instead of having them die because they're overlapped by someone else. Took what would have been a fun little game to an exercise of frustration.

funny to see how can they stack barracks that well and build things this beautiful when they can't even count (I'm referring to the difference in the number and picture on level selection)

how about some hot keys for making units, and make the mana drops appear on the screen if the unit was killed before it could enter the screen. You could also add some stationary buttons to select the soldiers, so that you don't have to chase them around, it's hard to select a specific soldier if he's line up with 3 other soldiers while attacking. Too many clicks don't register.

Once you reach the second page, it's a real pain to upgrade things, because you have to keep going back and clicking the unit you want to upgrade every time, and I have enough points to upgrade that unit from level 0 to tier 2 level 5 in one go.

too simple. i think we need wider area for this kind of game. the concept is good. the difficulty is too random. good luck. cause i cant make a game, i can only play. 3/5

Great game. Love it. But there are some things that would make it even better. Well it's actually only one thing. Hot keys. For placing Dragmanasdasd, for selecting them and for upgrading. Soldiers are very hard to level up if it gets hectic. Cure spell would be nice but i guess that's not the way you intended the game to work.
Please keep working on it.

How many levels are there, 22? I thought that lv20 was very tough because of the introduction of the Blue Jumping Goblins D:

Found a bug, i click new game and choose a slot and nothing happens. I click new game slot again and theres saved data but i have never played.

Fun game at first but it gets painfully repetitive way too fast. Without hot keys this game gets really annoying, especially in early levels when you have to update your units to heal them. Lots of useless units also. None of the archers do enough damage to be considered useful at all.
Need help?
1) Max staff
2) Max Mage
3) Max Fire Mage
4) Max Soldier
5) Max Paladin or Berserker, I picked the later.
6) Do NOT upgrade rain
Build fire mages all the way up and as many rows as possible and the game is too easy. If things get hard just cast the rain spell. Beat the game with no effort at all. The only advantage to upgrade units with stars is to avoid the painful task of upgrading them manually as the creator REALLY screwed that part up.
Advice:
-Add heal units or heal spells
-(Creator) Try playing your game at least once before you upload it. Had you then you would have figured out this obvious flaws on your own.

my advice to make this game have nigh on stupid amounts of mana, dont worry too much about leveling your units with stars till about lvl 6/7 up to that just fully put all stars into your wand, once u reach like level 23+ the mana regen starts going up 2 per level.

a line of fire mages will kill all incoming opponents - but most of the resulting mana potions will drop off-screen :( please warp off-screen mana potions to somewhere where I can click them!
