Ultimate Line Tower Wars
Reviewer's Description: Oh the days of LTW, the original had become an instant B.net classic. It was simple, addictive and fun. The author of Ultimate LTW decides to keep the original formula and nit pick at the few minor imperfections this game has while adding a few small innovations of his own
The Good
-The new Multiboard is simple, and useful. + Technicality
-The creeps have been balanced more, a few more towers added and a new feature of purchasable upgrades in the center has been added. Not too much but still neat. + Fun factor + Technicality
-Still the good old LTW we love to play. Its a good thing you didnt screw with the formula too much. Addictive and fun. +++ Fun factor.
The Bad
N/A
The UGLY
-This game does not make enough of an effort to differentiate its self from the original. If the name had been different i would still have instantly guessed it was LTW. The terrain is the same, bland and symmetrical. Most of the towers are still the same except a few balancing tweaks and even most of the waves remain the same. -- Fun factor ---- Originality
-Bonus:
-This map is a low file size. (+ Bonus)
(1=Unapprovable.)
(2=Bad)
(3=Average)
(4=Great)
(5=Excellent!)
Final Verdict:
3/5 Average.
Dont get me wrong, i love LTW. My earliest days of Battle.net was spent mazing my tiny corridor with sharp towers and bombarding them with my shooters from the sides. But this is the problem with this remake. It is not much of a remake, nearly nothing except for a few tweaks and a multiboard as well as a shop area, has been changed. Ultimate Line Tower Wars is definitly the most up to date version of LTW and the most balanced. The best pick if you wish to play LTW.
But its greatest achievment is also its downfall. This is, in the end. Just Line tower wars with a few adjustments.
Nothing more, nothing less.
Oh where have the good times gone....
(This map is approvable.)
