While there's no true paywall, there are plenty of speed bumps that force you to grind or pay. There should be a disclaimer at the bottom of the app description that reads: "For Tower Defense fans only."

Houston, TX #4 slewis7, Apr 20, 2014 I definitely agree that this game is balanced towards selling IAPs or heavy grinding. Regardless, I am still enjoying it quite a bit. It has been running smoothly and flawlessly on my iPad 3, even with tons of enemies on the screen. I recommend buying Defenders if you enjoy a good TD. (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
