There now are zillions of Flash Element TD tower defense game play videos floating around. We picked out some of the most instructional videos on Flash Element TD game higher level strategy, tips and cheats if you call them that.

Through way too extensive experimentation we have found three strategies and the average point range that is attained:

Combo Tower Defense Weapons: In this Flash Element TD game strategy, you build combo towers. It is a lot of fun, but requires using woods to research each type of weapon - without accumulating interest. The result is a relatively low score potential. In this Flash Element TD game strategy or cheat or trick, you use your woods to buy each successive weapon research, buy all three and then start building combo weapon towers as needed. The optimal location for the combo weapon towers in Flash Element TD game is in the center of the maze because of their large range. Always upgrade because the fire much more quickly. Watch them blast away at the baddie creeps. A lot of fun. In the earlier rounds, use fire towers and arrow towers, or cannon towers. Then in the last round, start selling everything you can before the last baddie creep is eliminated, so you can get more gold interest. If you are really good at this, you can get up to the 20,000 s of points. Not that great, but a lot of fun.

Here is a combo tower Flash Element TD strategy, using overlapping combo towers at the center of the roads, and a lot of water towers spread around the paths to slow down the baddie creeps. We have found that if you want to build up a lot of points, avoid combo towers, and instead use woods to buy interest, and maybe fire towers. But combo towers are a lot of fun!



Fire Tower Defense Weapon Strategy: In this Flash Element TD tower defense game strategy or cheats if you call it that, research fire towers with the first or second wood. Then start placing the fire towers at strategic locations and upgrading as needed. Remember not to buy or upgrade more than you need, since the more gold saved, the more interest earned. Among our favorite locations for the fire tower defense weapon trick is the upper right of the maze. We also like the lower right where the baddie creeps have to slow down. Use the overlapping tower trick to really pack them in. In the last round, start selling like crazy at the end to get more final round gold interest. If you really play this strategy smart, you can get 70,000 - 100,000+ gold in the end. Pretty good, but not the most lucrative Flash Element TD tower defense game gold accumulation strategy.

Cannon Tower Defense Weapons Strategy: With this strategy rely exclusively on cannon towers, with air or fire towers as needed on air rounds. In this Flash Element TD tower defense game strategy you have to use the overlapping weapon tower trick. Basically build canon towers like crazy. Our favorite spots are the uppper right and lower left, as with the fire tower defense strategy. By the end though you have covered the whole maze with canon towers anyway. This strategy we find is not as much fun, but produces the highest gold point scores if done well. 100,000 gold is easily attainable and 170,000-250,000 can be reached too, all without Flash Element TD hacks or cheats :)

Here are some other Flash Element TD Tower Defense game tricks, tips, hints, not cheats:

• Sell weapons not needed for next rounds



• Overlap weapons



• Use woods to buy interest, not weapons upgrades, until later rounds



• Position weapons in upper right of board



• Use cannons, and on air rounds buy a lot of air cannons and sell them at end of round

Flash Element TD Cheats

A lot of people are asking for more cheats, tricks and strategy hints on Flash Element TD, the very popular tower defense free online game. Previously we provided some cheats, hints and strategy (and even an alleged hack) in our review of Flash Element TD (follow link to get there).

We don't think these really are cheats, as they are not cheat codes for Flash Element TD (yet). Rather they are more strategy hints that can be followed to the higher levels of Flash element TD, although some cheats are in there to be found by doing the strategies noted.

You can play this game and discover the tricks and cheats to win with some practice. The tips we provide here can help you accelerate that Flash Element TD skill learning.

Here are some of the best cheats for Flash Element TD discovered so far:

• Use the overlapping tower cheat.
• As another variant on the overlapping tower cheat, Go three deep up the right side of the maze with fire towers at later stages of Flash Element TD
• Move towers cheat: Sell towers as they get out of range to inc erase banked gold when have a high interest rate. Especially in last round to increase the number of points in end. Here click this link for a YouTube video of the move towers cheat.
• Right Side Strategy / Cheat: This may actually be a hack. One staple of Flash Element TD lore is that you can beat the final level by lining the right side with fire towers exclusively, utilizing the overlapping tower cheat, and also utilizing upgrades of the towers. Here is a link for a YouTube video of the right side fire tower Flash Element TD strategy implemented to beat Flash Element TD.
• Build Money Fast Strategy (not cheat): earn a lot of interest and money so you can freely buy lives as needed. This Flash Element TD trick is discussed more below.
• When initially building, create strong spots. So spread towers to cover entire maze first, and then when entire maze covered, build strong spots i.e. around each of the towers built. Eventually entire maze will be covered and be a giant Flash Element TD strong spot.

Here's one cheat / strategy we like - Using Arrow towers at the beginning and upgrade them.

• In early levels, try 2 arrow towers and upgrade them when you can, and then add a third arrow
• Level 3, another arrow tower and upgrade
• Level 7 use wood to buy water tower and build a water tower
• Then add another water tower when needed, upgrade
• These should get you up to Level 14, although you can add another water tower if needed. Make sure the water towers are within range of at least 1 or 2 arrow towers to get the added firepower in the splash zones.
• Level 14 buy fire sell all the arrow towers
• Then keep adding fire towers. Should also spread splash zones all throughout the maze board of Flash Element TD.
• Level 21 take interest with the wood, same at Level 28
• At the final levels where the baddies and creeps go to 5000 HP all the way to 30,000 HP you will need to keep adding fire towers, use the overlay cheat and upgrade strategically.
• The fourth bonus level (20,000 HP) you need at least 5 rocket towers, preferably 15 all placed to attack in slow spots.

One cheat or strategy we like is the Build Money fast trick for defeating Flash Element TD. That way you can buy lives with gold whenever you need them and effectively double the size of the maze by if necessary allowing the baddies creeps to go through twice. One way of doing this is nicely laid out at diy Nation blog. An adaptation of this build money Flash Element TD strategy is:

• Round 1 - Use a single upgraded Arrow tower
• Upgrade to level 3 in next round
• Then in each of rounds 5 and 6, add another arrow tower and full upgrade it.
• In round 8, use wood to buy fire element and then any time another wood pops up buy interest. Build a fire tower and sell an arrow tower.
• In round 10 add another fire tower and sell an arrow tower
• In round 13 add another Fire Tower
• In round sell last arrow tower and add fire tower.
• Upgrade first fire tower to level 2 power
• Round 19: Upgrade first and second fire towers
• In round 21, make sure all fire towers have been upgraded and add one more at level 1
• In round 26, upgrade fire tower last one.
• In round 30 add 2 fire towers
• Round 32, add 4 more level 2 fire towers
• Round 36-37: and upgrade and add more as needed.

Flash Element TD

A fun, simple Warcraft inspired Tower Defense Flash Game

Hints, Strategy, Clues, Cheats, Hacks

*updated*

Flash Element TD is a fun, free online Tower Defense flash game. The flash game has an engaging simplicity about it - selecting and building towers to defend the maze against wave after wave of baddies called "creeps". I have played this free online flash game way too much, and provide tips, hints, strategy and solutions for achieving the higher levels in the game here, some cheats ... keep reading.

Recently, an upgrade has been implemented to Flash Element TD. With the upgrade you can buy extra lives, critical at the higher levels. New creeps (baddies) added as well.

The Flash Element TD game is loosely based on the MMORPG (massively multiplayer online role-playing game) called Warcraft. The object of the Flash Element TD game is to survive creeps waves, where the creeps become increasingly difficult to destroy. By building battle towers at strategic locations you can survive to higher levels of the game. As a part of the strategy in Flash Element TD, you need to save gold, in order to earn more interest at the end of each round. However there is a trade-off of saving to building in Flash Element TD. If you do not build enough, you lose, but if you do not save, you cannot build.

Each of the towers in Flash Element TD game have advantages and weaknesses against particular baddies. Before an air attach you are forewarned, and must make sure you have good defenses since the earth towers and the cannons do not work against air attack. Some baddies are "immune" to water towers too. However, water towers are extremely valuable, because they do damage and slow down the creeps - enhancing the strength of the other towers since you can get off more shots before the creeps are out of range.

Here's how the flash game works: You start out with an empty maze, twenty lives and some spending gold. Build some towers and hit "start" or "next level". The creeps (or baddies) come through and your towers blast away.

Here is a hint: if it looks like you did not build enough towers, you can add extras DURING the round. You also can upgrade. So before the creeps pass you by, you can add a tower to get them.

Here are some of the hints, clues and strategy for playing the Flash Element TD online flash game and have a lot of fun doing it.

One strategy is to optimize the towers you build. Note that you get bigger bang for each extra piece of gold. However, I also have found that with the stronger towers like fire and water towers, a larger number of towers is better than optimizing in playing the Flash Element TD game. The reason is that some waves of baddie creeps are really fast, and the towers can't fire fast enough to get them all. So in later rounds build a lot of water and fire towers to get them all.

Here is another Flash Element TD strategy hint. Use the minimal number of resources necessary to make it through a level. At higher levels the baddie creeps are really hard to destroy. So you need to build A LOT of fire towers, and water towers to slow them down. I have not found the earth towers to be very useful. However, there is a rumor that they will be upgraded by the authors soon. You also need to save a lot of gold. You will need to use it to buy extra lives at the upper levels. Keep at least 1200 golds in the bank to buy your way out of trouble at 40 pieces per life.

Here are some more playing tips to save your gold and beat online Flash Element TD. Cheats at the end of the list.

• Use the center part first. It takes longest for the baddie creeps to get through there so you get off more shots.
• Place your weapons strategically. Pick locations where you can get the creeps twice - like between aisles in the maze. Another tip is to place weapons at turns because the creeps slow down there.
• Place a few weapons on the last aisle up the right side of the maze. The baddie creeps go faster there, so use water towers to slow them down.
• When you earn wood in Flash Element TD, you have a choice of learning to build a new tower, or alternatively earning more interest. I have found alternating between learning and interest works best. Try water, then interest, then fire, then interest.
• An alternative upgrade strategy that can work is Fire, then interest, then interest, then water.
• Another one that reportedly works well is going for fire, then interest, interest and interest. Not verified.
• Here is a higher level tip: should have at least a dozen water and fire towers. Those will be your most effective weapons. It is important to have a lot of overlapping firing zones.
• I particularly like putting a lot of firepower at the lower left of the maze. The baddie creeps have to slow down there a lot. Make that a firing range.
• Another hint, try not to upgrade weapons much until you fill the screen a lot.
• It is possible to double or triple the number of towers by overlapping them. You need to be careful in placing them to avoid switching to the upgrade tower on the tower you are trying to overlap. Rumor has it that v2 of online Flash Element TD will eliminate this cheat, meaning the authors view this a glitch too.
• Another cheat, really a hack, reportedly is to use Cheat Engine, to do a hack. We really don't like score hacking since it skews the leaderboard, so don't recommend this cheat. It is reportedly used to hack the gold level up. You do it by finding the "40" parameter for the starting level of gold in the game. Then buy something, say a canon tower, reducing gold to "31". then find the 31 parameter and you isolated the gold variable. Set it at the level you want and the rest is history.
