    A solid mixture of polish, inventiveness, and just plain fun. Its blended style of fantasy and authenticity supplements its accessibility with pleasing flair.

    Toy Soldiers still has a lot to recommend it. The PC version comes with the Kaiser's Battle and Invasion DLC expansions, and its level designs have just enough variety to make at least one playthrough interesting. Some of those scenarios I'll probably come back to a few more times to improve my score. But still, Toy Soldiers is just a little too repetitive to enter the tower-defense hall of fame occupied by games like Defense Grid and Orcs Must Die! The clue is in the name: it's a brilliant toy, but just short of a truly great game.

    Nice combination of tower defense strategy with action elements has only minor issues connected to mouse control and camera glitches. [July 2012]

    The detail is there, but thanks to the mild handling and thin, generic audio, the magic isn't. [Aug 2012, p.97]

    I did not expect anything after the game interesting. I sometimes play a game of Tower Defence, but only just about, out of boredom. So what could I expect from Toy Soldiers? Apparently nothing, and there .. the game sucked me in many hours of gameplay. An interesting idea for a war with plastic toy soldiers, toys. For this idea except that they can shoot from land, it is really great, and finally you really can not get bored of the game Tower Defense. The game has a really great atmosphere and everyone who likes Tower Defense indeed almost love this game. It is a pity that the game actually has disadvantages. After a while it gets really too heavy for that is not perfect, there is nothing. In the game, however, most people should be drawn, and it's not like o .. for a while ... My rating -7.5 / 10 Expand
  3. for the price, I'm having fun. 10 bucks and I'll get 2 weeks worth of entertainment out of this...you know what, not a bad deal. Shame they didn't go deeper with this game. It reminds me somewhat of Army Men: Sarge's Heroes, apparently there is multiplayer? i haven't figured out that part yet? As scared as I get of complex games...i wish this game was a bit more complex. Play it high, its a fun distraction. seriously 10 bucks...thats less than 2 beers, worth it~~! Expand
  4. Casual game, which I would give on a PC an average rating: 6
    Two thinks are (for the PC) below average
    - need of annoying Windows Live Account
    (this on top of steam for me) -3
    - max. resolution 1024 -1
    Sum Up:
    Fine as a casual game. Probably good for XBox etc., but not adapted well to PC.
