  I normally don't play this type of game, but this one held my interest well while only being mildly addicting. The late game could use some balance tweeks, but overall I would say my purchase was a bargain. 3/4. A nice distraction; well worth the dollar I spent.

  I bought this because it was a dollar and I thought it looked interesting. For what it is, it's fantastic. It's a tug of war game where you customize your units. There's a surprising amount to unlock and play around with.

  This game is really cute and fun to play on co-op mode. It's easy without being boring, and child friendly (if you have little ones who like to watch you play)

  [i]I don't recommend or reject this game. I wish there was a 'neutral' button, not because the game's bad, because it's casual.[/i] +Funny game +Well-made casual +Nice upgrade system +Lots of armors, weapons +Achievements -A little [i]'gay'[/i] -There are free and funnier games -Weak online gaming PROS [b]1. Funny game[/b] The game's much funnier as it looks like, believe me! I bought it at a 75% discount and for the first ten or or fifteen minutes I thought [i]what the f'ck am I playing? Don't even believe I bought it. Just gonna give a chance then leave[/i]. But turns out that the experience was better than I expected and I'm completely sure I wasn't the only one who thought like that. [b]2. It's a well-made casual[/b] Every single detail was well drawn and well thought. The leaves falling on the ground, the 'pillars crawling to attack, the weapons animations, everything. It sounds stupid - but it's not, having a well created game, even if the concept is not good [i](not saying this game concept is bad, just giving an example)[/i], boosts the gaming experience a ton times. [b]3. The upgrade system is cool[/b] It has a very nice upgrading system where, unlike almost all other games upgrade trees you usually afford useless (sometimes expensive things) to reach the stronger ones, this game allows you to focus on what you need. [b]4. A considerable amount of armors and weapons are available[/b] Lots of weapons and armors are available! Lots of them! Thus, the game is way more personal and less linear, you can evolve the way you want and follow the upgrades you want. The upgrades can be related to 'pillar skins (generally armor or life upgrades), 'pillar segments (support and attack upgrades) and various others, such as increasing leaf regen or you tree maximum life. [b]5. Ingame achievements[/b] The game has Steam and ingame achievements (the golden leaf). Earning any ingame achievement earns you more money to upgrade your soldiers, upgrading them probably will give you more achievements and so on. CONS [b]6. A childish interface[/b] Despite the game being awesome, its interface is waaay too childish - even though is a more complex strategy game than it looks. The point is: there's no problem for you if you intend to buy this game but if you do so you'll probably want to play alone. If you have roomates or relatives constantly passing close to your computer there's a very big chance (if not certain), that you will be mocked. You shouldn't even discuss this game with other people that are not close friends, or else there's a possibility they may guess you're a little childish, or even gay (not saying it's a bad thing, okay, just poiting this out). This is, in my opinion, the most important topic of this game. If you urge to buy it please consider this topic 6 strongly. [b]7. Free and funnier similar games[/b] Yea, despite this game's great there are other free and even funnier games! One of them is the [/i]Epic War[/b]. Here are some of their best games with the same line of thought of Battlepillars and even better graphics, made of Flash: [*] [url=http://www.kongregate.com/games/rudy_sudarto/epic-war-3?referrer=BlasterBox]Epic War 3[/url] [*] [url=http://www.kongregate.com/games/rudy_sudarto/epic-war-4?referrer=BlasterBox]Epic War 4[/url] [*] [url=www.kongregate.com/games/fazecat/paladog?referrer=BlasterBox]PalaDog[/url] [*] [url=www.kongregate.com/games/rudy_sudarto/epic-war-5?referrer=BlasterBox]Epic War 5[/url] [*] [url=www.kongregate.com/games/mofunzone/miragine-war?referrer=BlasterBox]Miragine War![/url] They're all casual and more funny than 'pillars. [b]8. Weak online rooms [/b] I've been playing since a long time and I've never (I repeat [i]never[/i]!) seen an online room to play with. That's not a problem and does not change gameplay but you should at least consider it if you will to play with someone or earn all the achievements.

  Battlepillars is a cool tug-of-war game that has great value and a decent spectrum of difficulty (towards the end). It gives you about 10+ hours of content with a few types of challenges for various campaign levels. The bosses during the later half of the game also require a bit of contemplation and strategizing because they start becoming a bit more challenging. As an added bonus, the multiplayer was seamless and I had no issues whatsoever while achievement hunting with a friend. It's one of the more casual strategy games out there in the same price range but it was definitely quite fun. I definitely recommend it whether you are buying it for your phone or on Steam.

  The issues with this game are well captured on other reviews, I won't reiterate (I just wish I read them before). * No difficulty setting, game expects you to grind lower levels until you get what you need. * No buying guide. Game allows you to buy whatever you want, and the the AI assumes you have what you need to deal with rushes, not cool. * Minimal to no strategy. It seems like you conduct the battle, the the problem is that a specific set of tools will work on a specific level. Get in, get beaten, try again with a different combo, again, again, until you realize you don't HAVE what you need, so GOTO 10; (grind) * People put the gold challenges as a plus, but it isn't, because to get gold you need tools and tools cost apples and you get extra apples by getting gold, so you either have what you need and breeze the gold or you don't. Helps with the grinding, EXCEPT gold makes levels harder so it's not even grinding, it's hard grinding. Would I recommend this game? No. If I do, someone will pick it up, get stuck at the 10th level or so, flip it off and go to sleep, never to play it again. Why would I do that, when so many great games are on sale for less? And for what? I'm not condemning the graphics, or the gameplay, or the music (fix that loop, BTW, at some point it just ENDS), I'm condemning the laziness of the developers to put in difficulty, which is mandatory for casual gaming, and a mild hind on what should use for a particular map. I don't have infinite time to waste on trial and error. Some people do. They play on Normal/Hard. I don't. I play on easy with hints. In good games.

  This is a sweet little game. Great to game away some stress after a long day at work. Cute Caterpillers packing firepower. Point and click so not too taxing, lots of nice achievements and ingame upgrades = lots of enjoyable gameplay hours. Def worth its price, complete bargain on sale! Multiplayer options too, So bought friends the game as a gift too.

  It's ok. On the surface it's a good tower defense game with caterpillars fighting each other with machine guns and such. My main problem with the game is that have to grind a little in order to progress by going back to previous levels and earning more apples to upgrade your army. Don't get me wrong, it's still a fun game but the grinding took me out of the moment and I was just not feeling it for the game. 6/10 for me.
