Isle of Arrows – Tower Defense App Reviews

This game has filled the hole in my heart left by the removal of FF Crystal Defenders from the App Store many years ago. Isle of Arrows is now one of my favorite games. Currently I only have one request, iCloud syncing. I just upgraded to a new iPhone & none of my progress carried over since i didn’t restore from a backup. I’ll happily play again, though some of these challenges are brutal. Thank You for this game. It’s beautifully designed & lovingly made.

Found the setting in the app!

Great game, great quality, but too difficult for me to enjoy.

Great fun. Very addicting. But the love of the challenge quickly gives way to frustration with RNG. Needs more choice, less luck. Make it require more skill, not more praying.

It’s a good game. Lots of fun. It distracts me when I’m not feeling well. I’m stuck on the Burning Embers Merchants and Pathfinders. No matter what I do I can’t seem to beat them.

The random nature of the tiles is fun. I wish there was an overall means of becoming more powerful across games, like a rogue-like element. Sometimes the RNG does feel a little too bad and it feels like the games where everything lines up are on the rarer end. My biggest complaint is that in Gauntlet Mode, there needs to be more visual contrast between the map and the background. Both are super dark and it makes things difficult to see without cranking the brightness up and draining your batter

This game is amazing! It finds a good balance in being simplistic and challenging. I also appreciate how there are not any obnoxious in-app purchases or advertisements. This has been a very enjoyable game that doubles as a fun way to waste time. That being said, the RNG can be a little brutal and there's not much to do after you finish the main objectives. I hope the devs update the game with an endless sandbox mode of some sorts, but those are really my only complaints. 10/10 recommend this gam

Really great game, deserving of five stars for sure. I have noticed an issue, there seems to be a limit to how far the camera can scroll. I have, a few times, had a new track spawn in a spot that is outside this range, meaning I can only see a sliver of it and can’t actually build there. A fix for this and the game would be perfect!

I love Tower Defense games but they can get a bit boring. Thankfyully with its clever mechanics and devilishly hard levels, this one doesn't I have a ton of feature requests (ability to undo tile placement & save 1 tile for later) the biggest request is please add landscape support!

Excellent gameplay, just needs an UNDO for the PLACE button because an entire level can go down the drain with a slight misclick or misread of ice trap vs fire trap

This game is really addictive, deep, well balanced, and polished. I can’t put it down. PLEASE put in an option to undo the last action / selection, as long as the next wave hasn’t been started. I have made many mistakes and realized as soon as I made them, but the action is already locked in. Hope you keep supporting this for a long time through dailies and new islands / modes. I will okay for a long time!

Absolutely love the game! Not too easy but not to hard. Would absolutely love a free play mode where I can mess around with towers and power up cards!

I highly recommend this game for fans of turn based, tower defense and strategy games. I applaud this developer with creating this awesome, highly additive gameplay. The right amount of challenge and phenomenal graphics to tie it all together. As the saying goes, you get what you pay for! Well done.

A lot of fun here that progresses with more elements added and more strategic decisions to make. In a calm and relatively peaceful environment that I can wrap my head around.

The levels are moderatly difficult. We need the ability to target different enemies: first or strongest.

Love the art style and concept, but it just becomes an exercise in frustration. You will play dozens of game where 20 minutes in you will no longer get any cards that can help you build or defend. Disappointing that while you are barley hanging on, then the game spawns more paths, with nothing to defend with…. sigh….

Kudos to the developer. It’s beautiful, fun, challenging yet relaxing game.

I am a long time mobile gamer but hardly at all in the last few years (spending my gaming time using a Meta Quest these days). This is one of the rare mobile games to grab my extended attention for a while and I love it. While the random luck of the draw plays a big role in your success, good strategy and tactics can overcome bad draws. There is a ton of challenge and content here and I expect to keep playing for a long time (but perhaps not so obsessively). Also, this game is beautiful and

This might be my favorite game released this year. It’s a very fun take on a typical tower defense game and is quite challenging, but not in an unfair way. At no point did I think the challenges were cheap or unnecessary. There’s lots of content to play and the daily challenges are always quite good. Overall a great game.

Ever since I got an iPad, I’ve been looking for a solid tower defense game for iOS. This is the first one that checks off all the boxes (challenging, attractive, well designed, etc). Very excited about it! For the devs: The cannons should be 4x4, since their range would definitely extend farther than arrow towers. That way, they could be placed behind arrow towers around corners. Otherwise you guys nailed it, congrats and thank you!
