Lucky Defense is a casual tower defense game that focuses on the thrill of the gamble. Unlike traditional TD games, your units are determined by luck. Players can summon, merge, and gamble via a roulette system to acquire powerful Mythic and Immortal guardians. Success depends on managing your luck and making quick strategic decisions to fend off relentless monster hordes.

Our Expert Score

89/100

Lucky Defense (What The Luck) is a brilliant, high-variance tower defense game from the creators of BBTAN. It takes the familiar TD formula and injects a massive dose of RNG, making every match feel completely different. You don't just buy units; you summon them based on luck, and the ability to merge them adds a layer of 'gambler's high' to the strategy.

The game is deceptively deep. While luck plays a huge role, knowing when to roll the roulette and when to save your resources is what separates the masters from the beginners. The co-op mode is particularly fun, as you have to coordinate with a partner to survive waves that would be impossible alone. It's addictive, stylish, and perfect for fans of Random Dice.

Awesome Game!!!
Fri Aug 09 2024 JacksonNun

I’ve been playing this game for only a collective of about 6 to 8 hours (I think😂) and have gotten many great rewards and progressed in the game to a great level! What I really love about this game is the microtransactions in accordance to the actual in-game currency. You can get all of these currencies in good amounts simply by playing the game. No nearly impossible quests requiring you to do hours of work and get only a fraction of rewards that buying gets you, no full frontal add placements that interrupt gameplay, and not much effort required to get rewards and characters. This isn’t me saying the game is too easy no, but it requires a good amount of effort and figuring out strategies and placements to make your efforts to winning assured. The best thing about these efforts is the interactions between playing. I have experienced a great interaction with other users and some who have shared strategies with me like not placing characters until 90 mobs are on the board and where to place allies. This is the first review on a game EVER and I’ve got to say that 111%’s Lucky Defense has truly earned that from me. Thank you 111% for making such a great experience!!!

I absolutely love this game but…
Fri Oct 11 2024 Skytricker

So this is probably my favorite mobile game over the past 10 years haven’t seen one even close to being as good. The in game “luck” standards are pretty fair and balanced. However, the lucky standards for the recruiting system is so unbelievably unbalanced that you might as well not even try because all you’ll get is anything but mythic even though it’s the only way to get mythic shards without spending. I have spent a little bit on the game myself but only for the skins, “season pass”,(which resets the moment you finish it and I love this by the way probably one of my favorite things about this game) and vvip pass which is well worth it as well. I love how they start you out where you can get tons of gems very fast but it very quickly dies off and I like to get the things in the daily shop when they’re available but the amount of gems they require pretty much wipes me out. I love the artifacts and the mythics are great, but the biggest issue I have is the players. I know they can’t control their players but the amount of times I’ve had someone disconnect and it screwed me over is absolutely phenomenal. I’ve had to report over 300 players for this exact issue and I know for a fact it’s not just me. Anyways I don’t wanna tell you how to run your game because it’s mostly amazing but to make it even better there are some suggestions from someone who’s played more games than anyone reading this comment right now even though I’m probably younger than you.

Suggestion.

There should be a button where you can revert all of the mythic stone from the mythic guardians, for example the first time can be for free you click on one of the mythic guardians that you don’t use and wasted mythic stones on and can revert it back. However the second time will be with diamonds, maybe 2000, or depending on the level of the mythic you want to revert the stones back from. Or another suggestion is you can choose how much you want back —which will cost diamonds depending on how much mythic stones you want back. Maybe 1 mythic stone for 100 or 150 however you see it fair. I see this as something really helpful and useful in the game as it doesn’t have to be all about fun, there should be updates where it’s useful for us players and actually have something to look forward to. Consider adding more useful features, not just fun updates they soon get used to it and want something new however if there’s a useful update it won’t get boring or old, it’d be there and always using it. I hope this gets to the developers and the game is really fun and enjoyable but it’s very hard to upgrade unless you spend money and that is something not many people want to do as we want to have fun without having to pay much. Other than that great game and continue with your ideas you always surprise us and it’s always a fun experience to try. Thank you and have a pretty day.

Great game, great grind, only one problem
Tue Dec 03 2024 The_Real_Gizzy

I have been playing this game for around 3 months now and do the daily tasks every day. This game is extremely fun but the problem lies in upgrading mythics. The mythic essence is too hard to come by. You can only get it by either gems which are hard to come by after completing the quests, a random pull which is a 0.09% chance of happening if only including mythics which is the main source of them, or buying gems to buy essence. If we had a way to undo leveling mythics this would help a bit because some mythics become useless very quickly or we level up some that shouldn’t of been before we understand the game. For example, Batman should not be leveled up almost ever. I have him level 6 because he was good when I was first learning, I also have a level 7 frog prince because he was the best at the time before rocket chu came out, now he is completely worthless and I would be able to get a level 12 rocket chu if I could undo frog prince and Batman. But instead, I have to suffer through abysmal drop rates to level up a new character because the old ones are not as good. The worst part of this game though has to be for the “VVIP” perk of this game is a MONTHLY (which is completely unacceptable) is 12$ just for double speed. There is no other way of obtaining double speed. Not in game currencies, not a lesser tier, only an outrageous MONTHLY payment of 12$ for a mobile game that has other horrible tactics of coerce people into paying outrageous prices for faster progression. These pricing practices turn a 5* into a 3*

So unbalanced
Wed Mar 05 2025 bumbot2000

While the game can be extremely addicting, after passing the easy mode forget progression. The latest update has made passing hard mode as f2p near impossible. The game’s become tedious and repetitive because aiming for higher stages without a p2p partner isn’t reasonable. The daily dungeons and challenge mode are almost just as bad. The constant bombardment with in-app purchase windows every time you return to the home screen after being slapped in game make me want to pay/play less and less. The servers have also taken a hit with the newest update, constantly dropping connection and removing from games until you restart the app. The lack of variety in gameplay gets to be mind numbing as every game, despite your luck, feels pointless as the monster health and defense ramping are completely ridiculous. I like the game in its concepts and heroes, but the balance curve should be criminal and they really should look for ways to help their player base more. Other games that run events make them feel meaningful and rewarding, but this one has next to no interesting events or modes to keep invested. I want to love it but the balance, greed, and lack of variety just cast such a huge shadow over the good aspects that would make this a hugely addicting, long-lasting title.

Matchmaking and mechanics
Tue Jan 20 2026 nomikossirren

The match making in coop is horrible on higher levels. It’s a waste of energy when you get paired with someone who is grossly under leveled. Defeats the whole purpose of progression to just be paired consistently with low level partners who can’t carry their weight. Secondly the “chance” to summon characters is completely rigged game to game. I’m fully convinced at the start of a match the program gives a small selection from the character pool and that’s all you will get. I’ll summon 10 storm giants with no sherif, which is ridiculous then come next game it’s 10 sheriffs to one storm giant, so on and so forth. Rarely are games actually balanced and fair with summons so you can get the mythic you have actually put time into. Again it’s a waste of time and energy to play a match and loose immediately. Game is very fun when it works well but it’s rare. I still play it as it’s one of the better games out there and have spent some money but if the matchmaking continues like this and the summons are so poorly balanced i will probably stop. Just not worth playing 6 games with no rewards. Also the clan rewards and over all rewards are so low it’s almost insulting. They can easily increase the rewards you get from events to help progression.

I’m having a blast playing this game. It’s all luck base so it’s very casual. However with that being said, I don’t believe the probability rates of some of the units are accurately depicted. I’ve had many games I would gamble for an Epic unit (25% chance of obtaining one). I’ve used it 10 times in a row in multiple games and wouldn’t get a single Epic unit. 25% is roughly 1/4 draws. Also the waves past level 50 are extremely overtuned unless you’ve paid money to upgrade all your Mythics. I’ve had multiple games where me and my ally would have at least 6 Mythics on each board and it still wouldn’t be enough to get past wave 52. EDIT: With the new QOL the game has improved substantially. Many buffs to mythic heroes really give us a chance in every game. I’m very happy with the update and look forward to future updates. However, I still believe the gambling (common, rare, legendary) is being falsely stated. I’ve tested many time gambling for an epic unit and have had many occasions I wouldn’t get a single unit in 20 tries. The game says 25% chance…which would mean in 20 pulls I would get around 5 epic units.

You will hit a huge wall.

This game is very fun and addicting. There’s a good sprawl between normal and hard mode to do your best and try to level up your mythic to get to your absolute best. And I have to say this game is by far one of the best games I’ve played. BUT, somewhere around level 13-14 it becomes almost impossible to scale any further. You will spend days trying to get just 10 maybe 20 mythic stones to upgrade your mystics. Hopping on hoping that if you get the 2400 recruitment scrolls that you can maybe just land some simple 10s 20s and 30s, No they will screw you over and over and over again. The biggest thing I’ve noticed is this game is great for beginners but, a lot of people quit playing around the 13-14 mark. Developers if you’re reading this, your game has a great concept but needs some serious work or the community will never grow to what you’re wanting. I’ve spent well over $100 on your game and played for about 2 months, the game is fun, the odds in recruiting is terrible and honestly a waste of time even playing. Out of the 3 guilds I’ve joined everyone would quit playing for weeks because the game is too unfair at a certain level and you can’t make any progress. Do better, thank you.
