Tower Wars is a tower defense game combined with army building. This indie title was released in August 2012, so has been around for a while coming in with about 400k owners on Steam. As with other tower defense games, you start out with a blank battlefield, although this version of tower defense is slightly different to others, you are also fighting against an opponent, who is also building towers on their blank...

my only take-away from this thread is: It's far better to pre-release games as alpha, and incorporate many sales to attract a wide-player (tester) base.

While the game mechanics are fun it gets boring soon. There are 6 types of maps to play (with some changing gold placings) and when you defeat your first enemy you go to the next level. Which is immediately a harder difficulty. You unlock all your characters and towers in one game. So the next level is only harder, barely anything new, just harder to defeat. I very much prefer to play more of a campaign/story line...
