  • Google has to increase their 15 minute refund policy to see if we like it/works. Or just release a lite version to give us a taste. I would be happy with 30 minutes but 1 hour would be best.

  • So, downloaded yesterday, (I know late to the party), and started to dig into the game. I'm running on rooted and fairly modded Galaxy S (Fascinate Variant). So far the game runs smooth as butter. I have seen one area where the frame rate tends to drop but not to the point of stuttering. The controls (given how many there are) are actually fairly intuitive and the interface was very well thought out. Occasionally the menu's can be a bit deep or hard to work with but that might also be my big thumbs.

    Setting up the “towers” is a breeze and fairly accurate process. The game really combines a Tower defense with gauntlet or something akin to that. Varying elemental alignments provide an additional element of strategy. The biggest thing I can suggest is memorize the map layout etc when in build mode makes the rest go so much smoother. Also don't think like a standard TD style you'll get further thinking of you'd fortify the area and go killing in conjunction with your barricades and turrets.

  • I'm playing on my rooted g_tablet and it's great. By far the best mobile game I've ever played. Although I can't imagine playing this on anything less then a 7 inch screen. I give it an 8/10

  • You know what Im curious about is how much this game drains your battery if you arent plugged in and is it so much that you probably need to stay plugged in to play this game? could be a big deciding factor for most!

  • i watched the gameplay/trailer of this game and it looks farrrr too cluttered for a mobile game, is it just me? looks like there is too much stuff on the screen at once for a phone, maybe it would be better on a tablet?

    • To follow-up: finally downloaded it, minute long long time to get it started. Create a character, try to go to to the first level, 3 minutes of loading leads to a self reboot.

      On a droid x.

  • Got this on an overclocked Droid X. By the time it was done downloading all the files for the first time, the refund period was over. (15-minutes). It ran like crap, no matter if I restarted or removed other apps. Waste of time and money.

  • I downloaded this on Christmas day, and took nearly ALL day to download 600mb worth of data. And not only that, but it kept getting an “Unknown” error, so I had to restart the download(but it did resume every time though).

    Finally when the day was almost over, it finally got done downloading and could finally play. It did not force close at all, like some of the comments suggested. Not sure what phone they were using, but on my unstoppable Droid X, that wasn't the case.

    I haven't really set down and really got a taste of what Dungeon Defenders: First Wave has to offer, but today, later on, I will. I imagine the game will be super incredible, so the wait will have been worth it.

      • UPDATE: Played the first few waves of the first level or chapter and it plays as smooth as anyone could imagine. It did freeze once(due to background stuff I guess), and my Droid X did get kinda hot after about an hour of playtime. Definitely a resource/battery hog, that's for sure, but well worth it.

        Super fun game and at $2.99(limited time), it's a great game and a steal. If you have a capable enough phone to run the game, I highly recommend it!

  • Original Droid owners shouldn't download this. I've got mine overclocked to 800mhz and I deleted all my users apps. There just isn't enough RAM for the game to even get started. I'll be getting a new phone some time next year so it wasn't a total waste of money. Just wanted to warn the other OG Droid owners thinking of trying it out.
