    Wow! Was a shocker for me - i expected some crappy (ok, ok - not crappy, but definitely a light) game. Instead, i was sledged in the face with a colossus of depth and impressive proportions! Damn son, this game is awesome! It's not your usual Defense Tower - build-upgrade-win. Hell no! The game will kick your ass if you don't adapt! Try enabling them traits to get more XP and seeWow!

    Very impressive.

    An improved version of Gemcraft Labyrinth, tougher, same variety of monsters and lore, smooth interface, atmospheric music and sounds, beating a map is quite a satisfaction and arises the need to come back to beat it at a higher difficulty level.
    If you like TD, this is one game you need to play.

    Perhaps, the only tower defense web game with a mature, engaging but not THAT serious storyline. Even it doesn’t surpass its predecessor “Labyrinth” it does represents an improvement of the genre. Better for new players rather than followers of the Gemcraft saga, it does makes worth the 5-year long waiting.

    At the moment is GemCraft 2 chasing Shadows the best tower-defense game on the market. GC 2CS has so many layers of difficulty. From low level wizards to high level wizards you need really different strategies, only later, after a border on really high level you can run every match the same strategy. GC 2CS have for many hundreds hours stuff and achievements. For tower-defense fans an must have.
