Kingdom Rush Original Challenges

[ManticoreCorps]

Here we have all the players who have completed KR, now with nothing to do. I propose we create and try challenges!

I've seen people trying random challenges on Kingdom Rush, just because they were bored, so I thought I'd want to create a thread where we can share challenges we thought up or know of. It can really make gameplay more fun.

A few challenges I know of is the "No Stars" challenge. I think it is pretty much self explanatory here. You play through the game without the upgrades. I know people have completed it before, so it is possible. Not sure if it is possible to perfect all the stages though...

The other one is the Holy Grail challenge. You have to do the last stage (12) with only Barracks. Again, it is possible, for there is a video on YouTube showing it.

I know that there are many other original challenges out there, and I hope we can all share them to give us players whom have completed the game something to do.

Possible Challenges:
No Stars - Complete campaign on normal without using upgrades
Holy Grail - Complete stage 12 iron with only barracks
Perfect No Stars - Perfect all the stages without upgrades on Normal
Holy Arrow - Complete Stage 12 iron with only Archers
Spells only(Tentative Name) - Complete Stage 2 using only Spells

Untested Challenges

Ah good, never came round to make a topic like this myself =)

The Holy Grail challenge isn't completing stage 12 using only barracks though,
it is completing IRON stage 12 using only barracks.

Also, the no stars challenge has been confirmed to be possible for
non premium levels. You might say completing the game means
completing the first twelve stages... but that could be made clearer

Oh and there's another playermade, possible challenge, called
'The Holy Arrow' which is completing IRON level 12 with only archer towers ^^

+ we have an unnamed challenge: completing stages with only reinforcements
and rain of fire. Completing all stages this way surely isn't possible,
but stage 2 can be completed this way, for example.
Hereby I name this challenge... Spells only

[ManticoreCorps]

Oh thanks for the heads up.

And I think Spells Only is better known as Miser. YOU DON'T SPEND A SINGLE CASH! Weeeeee~

Also, I'm not sure if this is possible, but can we complete a Heroic/Iron stage without using Spells?

[Julian]

Hmmm I guess you misunderstood one thing I said, as perfect no stars
just isn't possible from stage 9 and beyond for as far as I know =)

Also, I'm not sure if this is possible, but can we complete a Heroic/Iron stage without using Spells?

Let's find out

[Epicazeroth]

I made a challenge that can be either harder or easier than those, depending on how you do it. If you do a level using only 8 towers, one of each fully upgraded tower, you need a lot of strategy especially in the really late levels. Of course, you only have like, three levels where you can use all 8.

Twin Rivers, Heroic Challenge, Archers Only (No Premium Bonuses, Level 2 Max)!

PLZ be aware of what the coin counter says at the top left corner.

PS: this vid has been made months ago.

This kind of topic crops up fairly frequently. Maybe its time for a 'Custom Challenges' sub-forum.

Hmm challenges... Supposedly challenging.

Okay they're a little bit hard but it's possible (I made 'em up...)
This is the BOOM Beat level 12 with only artillery on easy.
Spiders... Beat level 5 with only rangers (includes the elves)
Arcane Defender Beat level 6 with only wizards
J.T.'s Ranger overpower Beat level 9 with only rangers...

I actually did all of this without thinking of it as a challenge.
For example, I always complete level 12 ON NORMAL with
only Big Bertha's because it's like... the easiest way? ^_^

[Giangreymon]

Challange's are really hard and thats why they call it challange

[leemik]

LOL i'm creating challenges for myself too..

on the earlier stages i was trying to finish various levels without building any towers.. just by using the special spells...

[meowlala]

I have some i'd like to share -means very very hard.

Trouble on the DOUBLE... beat sarelgaz lair with only towers level 3 or lower
Downfall... Nearly lose on stage 12 but win like when he says "OMG YOU ARE A COMPLETE FAIL JUST QUIT!"
Senior apprentice-ship... Beat half of the acheivements
Having a death-day... Beat level 6 with only level 2 or lower towers
Senior challenge completer... Beat all of the above

[Julian]

I have to say I quite like your 'maximum tower level'-challenges ^^
To make it more general, I am going to try beating all levels without
using advanced towers. If it's a good challenge, I'll name it

What about flying enemies? Only reinforcements?

The Big Bertha can shoot missles; missles can hit flying enemies

[Cheesecake]

Oops... now I feel like an idiot

[Giangreymon]

Big berthas can damage flying enemies by its AoE effect... The Big Bertha is awesome

[Goldenrhino]

I almost, almost completed this one, but died on the last wave...I'm not sure if someone said this elsewhere, but it's level 6, iron, with only three towers.
