So after slaying one wave of monsters, you have a lot more gil. If a monster makes it to the end of the path, passively resisting brutal assault upon brutal assault, fireball upon fireball, he gets to keep a crystal or two.Д®ach monster you slay gives you more gil. They walk along a poorly designed preset path, because they are apparently afraid to step on grass. The monsters actually wait until you are ready to attack. They tell you which breed is coming ahead of time and share their strengths and weaknesses.

They are very organized, and only вЂњattackвЂќ with one species at a time (save for rare occasions when a few giant versions of that species mix in with the norms). The monsters do seem to be quite civilized. вЂњThese are beautiful! You have made me the happiest flying type creature resistant to magical attacks in all the world!вЂќГ‚Вќ I like to think that they want to use the crystals to make earrings for their respective monster wives. Perhaps these crystals are magical or maybe the beasties want to use them as currency. I donвЂ™t know why the various creatures want these crystals. I guess your overlord appreciates frugality, though, because you get some bonus points for not spending all your gil.Д«ut for me, when it comes to defending crystals, gil is no object. (If you donвЂќГ‹Е“t speak Role Playing Game, this means you can make them more powerful.) You can buy as many fighters as you can afford- slash- as many as can fit on the screen. Gil can also be used to level up these soldiers or mages. Somebody else, IвЂ™m also not sure who, put you in charge of defending ten crystals from some monsters. I feel you should know this thing before reading my review of Crystal Defenders R1. Or maybe I just hate protecting the helpless.

Perhaps I was scarred as a young man by Defender: Stargate. I just want to stab things and cause mayhem. Saving hostages, keeping gangsters from fire-bombing a store, rescuing the neighbors in Zombies Ate My Neighbors: I donвЂќГ‹Е“t want to do those things. Defending is probably my least favorite thing to do in a video game.
