Hilarious, detailed and addicting, “Kingdom Rush Vengeance” is a worthy addition to the mobile device of anyone is who is a fan of strategy … or laughing. Release date 15 October 2020 Official website Developer Ironhide Game Studio Publisher Ironhide Game Studio Activation Steam Platforms PC PEGI - Tags Strategy Action Adventure Tower Defense Fantasy 2D. No adult content here apart from some hilarious fantasy action. While I wish you could place the towers more freely and that there was an easily accessible freeplay mode, “Vengeance” still will have you laughing and tapping for hours on end. And that's on top of the jokes and references in the hero dialogue. In a level centered around a dwarven forge, for example, I spotted GIR from “Invader Zim” and a reference to “Terminator II” in the space of about five seconds. Mortemis doesn't get jumped on while alone and his zombies are intentionally disposable, as long as you kill enemies quick enough they'll come back.
More importantly, though, the trademark “Kingdom Rush” humor and bright style have made it through in spades. Vengeance units as a whole are much more reliant on armour and magic resist for their tankiness than units in the other games, and so Grim Presence is very strong.
That is what has always set “Kingdom Rush” apart from other tower defense games using the hero wisely is more often than not the key to victory and keeps the gameplay from getting boring. Ultimately, “Vengeance” is a success because it expertly walks that tightrope between “give us a sequel that maintains the things we loved about the original” and “don’t just give us the same game with different skins.” Some of the aspects of the original that have carried over are the basics of tower defense with heroes that move around the map. Additional changes to the classic “Kingdom Rush” formula include greatly expanded customization options for your towers and, of course, a new roster of heroes to choose from (and pay for, in some cases) and experiment with until you find one that suits your play style.

This is more than just a change of scenery, however, as playing the flip side of the story adds new towers, upgrade paths and more. The difference, though, is that instead of keeping out the ogres and demons, you are the ogres and demons, and you're working to keep those pesky dwarves and humans from slipping past your defenses. Like the other games in the now-famous “Kingdom Rush” franchise, “Vengeance” has you strategically placing and upgrading various towers in order to stop invaders. Now, take that idea and expand it into an entire game where you get to play as the villain in a hilarious, pop-culture Easter-egg-filled story and you’ll have something close to “Kingdom Rush: Vengeance.” The game comes out on Thanksgiving. It’s been the subject of countless “Star Wars” comedy sketches and at least one deleted scene on the “Austin Powers” DVD: What happens to the bad guys once the good guy leaves them battered and bruised? What do they talk about in the break room at lunch? It’s perennially hilarious because it forces you to stop and realize, “That’s right, the hero just ruthlessly took out around 20 guys - how many of them were one day away from retirement?”
