Una verdad simulada

I finally did it (about 2 weeks back)! The tips I mentioned earlier kind-of worked. A few things religiously followed:

• The most important upgrade is interest rate. 13% is too low… you’ll soon run out of gold.
• At the third (or the fifth, if you go for two interest upgrades) halo, research ice. It slows down the creatures and has splash damage.
• Two arrow towers are equivalent to one arrow tower with an upgrade. An upgrade is twice as costly as building a second tower. So, until the entire map gets well-covered, do not go for upgrading towers.
• Three bomb towers are equivalent to one tower with an upgrade. In the initial stages of the game, build more bomb towers instead of upgrading. This is less effective than arrow towers due to the limited range of bomb towers.
• Due to the limited range of bomb and ice towers, its better to not build arrow towers next to the road.
• Corner spots are prime real estate. Do not build arrow/magic towers there
• Towards the later stages, you need storm towers. Completely upgraded storm towers (cost: 100 + 250 + 400 gold) are the only way to kill the creatures after, say, stage 35. You need enough gold stored to buy and upgrade the towers.
