Lock's Quest Conquered

Saw the latest game, Lock's Quest, on IGN's front page. Quickly got a copy of the game and get down to playing~!

It is part Fighting RPG and RTS. YOu get to build your defence and when battle starts, you get to control Lock to go around fighting enemies and repairing your castle walls.
The game lasted 100 days and probably around 20++ hours for me. Quite enjoyable.

Some general tips.
Use traps once they are available, Poison and Ice works well together. If you need to use revealer, place them right in front of the walls so they will be exposed near the wall and in range of your turrets.

For new battlegrounds, to spend some time knowing where are places for good defences. short stretches for minimum building, places for Lock to move around to attack, constricted areas for enemies to walk through and trap them.

You can hide Lock inside the castle walls and concentrate on repairing but do watch the health and have easy access to all walls. Once you have a helper bot to repair the walls, you will want to attack more. Attack is sometimes the best form of defence.
