Toy Soldiers - PC - Game Review

Toy Soldiers is a World War I - with toy soldiers - Tower Defense (TD) game. Interestingly, it carefully avoids saying so on its description anywhere, instead choosing to use strategy as the genre. But it is clearly TD, albeit with a single unusual change - you can use the towers (as well as some vehicles) yourself. Graphics are good, and sounds are OK. The music is WW 1 themed too, which was mostly annoying after a first chuckle. The camera angle seems always a bit off. There is a full top view, but it is so far away from the field that is hard to see anything other than the towers. There are the usual tower types - machine gun, mortal, cannon, anti-air. There is also a sniper tower, but you can't place that yourself - it comes pre-placed on levels. Overall, I found the gameplay to be too slow on the first levels. You just place the towers and wait, or get on one of the others for a mildly entertaining time shooting at your enemies. I am told that in the highest difficulty...

Toy Soldiers starts in Japonese - Solved - PC

Just got Toy Soldiers, which comes quite well recommended. But when it starts, all menus are in Japonese. Well, I don't speak Japonese, so that is a problem. It is easy to fix it, though. From the start menu: - Choose item 4. - Choose item 3. - Click on the left arrow on item 3 till it is back in your language. Pretty annoying and it is the first time I've ever seen this happen!
