Nintendojo: Crystal Defenders R1 Review

If you’re new to tower defense, you may have a different reaction to Crystal Defenders R1 than many others who have long been fans of this sub-genre. Square-Enix’s offering has limited variety in its units, enemies and battlefield environments, but there are enough options to give players new to the gameplay style a chance to hone their skills. Tower defense veterans, however, may find the limited choices off-putting and too easy. And veteran or novice, levels are seldom overwhelming in challenge, at least until the latter portion of the game.
