Additionally, the story's clarity suffers due to poor machine translations, making it difficult to fully grasp the plot.

    • “The bosses of the main story are very weakly durable and do not sometimes have an army to defend.”
    • “They are obviously fans of the Kingdom Rush series, and while I agree it's nearly identical in the style and presentation, there are small differences (like the upgrade camp, and the way the story unfolds).”
    • “It has all the Kingdom Rush feel and style with a fresh new perspective using the Silk Road storyline.”
