Please add a language called Chinese(Better if put it on the Chinese store)
Wed Aug 21 2024 Asher墨

There I use English to express my opinions. In China there is a huge market worth exploring. Many of my friends and parents’ friends played this game translated by some native technical workers in a pirated way because of the language block. You creation teams should have been prized by our players from now on. Nowadays I believe that Chinese people being exposed to the bad game environment would be really happy to relive this game and experience the classics from your excellent game. There will be better if you could translate your game into Chinese and put it on the Chinese store. Thank you for giving me wonderful memories of childhood games!

Good potential, poor balancing
Sat Jul 02 2016 dantax

This game has frustrated me to the point where I'm writing my first review ever. I love tower defense games. It's pretty much the only thing I get from the app store these days. In playing Jelly Defense, I have to agree with some of the other reviewers: Cool game, but inexplicably difficult to beat. That would normally be a good thing, but I'm not talking about mastering some skill, based on strategy. I'm saying this game does things that don't make sense, like attack waves progressing inappropriately. The levels are very unbalanced. One level is super easy; the next is dumbfounding. The only way to master this game is just to memorize the levels. To me, this is like the difference between someone memorizing school test answers, vs someone understanding strategy. In most levels, you might be able to anticipate the incoming jellies and place towers appropriately. But sometimes, within that same level, there will suddenly be an attack wave that completely breaks through. The only way to beat this is to memorize the attack waves. Also, the in-game advice sometimes doesn't display. I'll get the pop-up window, but it's completely blank. I'm on the latest iOS and an iPhone 6. I hate being critical. Seriously, I would love to make games like this for a living. So I feel like a jerk for talking smack. However, this game deserves a little beat-down for not being balanced. And a few bugs.

Amazing game, high difficulty
Mon Jul 21 2025 WingDingFontBro

This game among many other td games stands out boldly. This game’s major difference is that it’s far less of a defense and far more of an offense. The player needs to be able to quickly sell, place and upgrade towers when necessary, alongside making decisions on what towers you will research. The hardest are the winter levels, the second one giving me the greatest challenge yet to beat. Not even the people online could have a vid of it perfected. For this appearing as just a simple kids td game about jellies, it is rather advanced. If youre looking for a fun td game to challenge you, go right ahead. For the casual gamers however, this game will frustrate you. For the later levels, I recommend getting the piggy bank down as fast as possible and getting it to lv 2, it’s cash generation is insane if you can set your defenses up right. It grants you a percent of your cash at the end of a wave, more specifically when the last jelly dies of that wave. It starts at 10%, but gets you to 25-30%. You can easily end up with more cash than you know what to do with! Anyways, for those looking for a challenge, get this game, and for the more casual or younger players, it’s gonna be a tough yet fun road!

My favorite iPad game-more levels please

This is an awesome tower defense and strategy game. Don't believe the reviews that say the towers and jellies are all the same. Those people didn't make it far enough in the levels or work through the tower upgrades to see the variations and how they affect your strategy to win a level. The soundtrack is engaging and pleasant. The graphics are fun. It took me a few months of off and on effort to finish all levels. I wish there were more levels, but this game was well worth the 2.99 to me.

Favorite game ever
Fri Nov 25 2022 Froggy_Blonde

I purchased this app more than 10 years ago when it first came out. I love the different towers and personalities of the jellies. l have played the levels over and over trying to completely master each level and not lose any gems, continually trying to beat my highest scores. I wish there were more levels, I would pay again just to get those. 100% recommend if you like strategy, tower defense, puzzle games.

GREAT GAME!!!!!!
Thu Mar 22 2018 DDLBoarding

I love this game and play it regularly. I have not gotten tired of it and it remains challenging as you can tweak past performances. Yes it is an old game, but, compared to many new ones, this is a standout!! I love how you have to use your brain and that there are no in app purchases. When discussing games I always encourage people to check it out. I just wish they would either make a Jelly Defense II or upgrade with more levels. I wholeheartedly recommend this game. Trust me.....

BEST ipad game EVER
Wed Jan 03 2018 C0zycat

Insanely addicting. I love this game so much, I've finished every level multiple times. It can be challenging, but that's because its complex. Once you come to understand every aspect of the game, you can really do well. And it is so much more absorbing and intricate than most games. Make sure you put your towers in spots where they are most effective---you can tell if it's a good spot by how quickly it is leveling up. PLAY THIS GAME, IT IS WORTH IT! PLEASE make a Jelly Defense 2!!!!

Too hard, not fun.
Tue Dec 22 2015 Nervesisout

I am not sure why this is rated so well. It is too hard, not challenging mind you, hard, for no good reason. And it is not like you can go through the game and unlock upgraded towers to make it easier when you go back and play the levels again. And it is simply not fun, there is not much too it. A tiny amount of towers, only a few powers, no strategy, the tower upgrades are lame and uninteresting, the baddies are all the same basic enemy and they all look almost identical. This makes me wish Apple had a good refund policy. It might be fun in the future, but right now it is just blah.
