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.
