Crystal Defenders is one of the best tower defense games I’ve ever played! It brings back so many memories of the characters from Final Fantasy Tactics A2 on my old NDS, along with all the crystals and magic from the Square Enix universe. I really wish I could play this game again soon, but unfortunately, my old PSP isn't working anymore.

Played this endless on the PS3. Very nicely balanced and fun and keeps rewarding you to try different tactics. It's sad that more of these games die with time as they go locked away in the old console closets.

1869Sucess of course does not come about by itself. A ship owner of the last century had to be well informed in many areas. Not only the knowledge about the secrets of trading ensure success but also an excellent knowledge in the field of shipbuilding, types of ships, running a ship, nautical science, readiness to take risks, and last but not least being informed about the political and economical situation of the world were absolutely essential for the running of a shipping firm. In the single-player mode it is the aim of your game to be included in the "List of the Best" after a certain number of years. In the multi- player mode there is the possibility of a "knockout" victory if all competitors have been eliminated. Winning can also be defined as the player who has the strongest company after the end of playing time.
