Fun fun fun
PROS:
-EXCELLENT soundtrack
-Retro style graphics
-Simple and addicting gameplay
-Lots of humorous text, both during levels and at the shop(item descriptions)
CONS:
-Can be annoyingly challenging at times
-Some may consider $3 a little steep compared to the other simple/addictive games(angry birds, fruit ninja, etc) that only cost a third of the price in the app store
CONCLUSION:
Very addicting and humorous, worth $3 in my opinion and as long as you aren't stingy with your gold and buy all the upgrades available, levels shouldn't be overly difficult.
Yaaaay, Retina Display support!!
Finally! I love this game but it (previously) looked so blurry that I was reluctant to play it at most times, but now it's perfect!
Oh, and as for the content of the game... that generally tends to be important, right? Yeah. It's amazing. If you're still sitting there thinking about buying this game, just click on the buy button. Just do it.
... Seriously.
Wonderful!
Great for fans of true gaming.
