I realised if you want a ton of money and want to cruise through the last 10 levels, then you have to make some sacrifices and lose some lives, in order to keep interest high. I ended up with 11 lives. Thanks Todd for the screen shot as guide, and Larry for the tips. Until level 33 I had arrow towers literally everywhere where they could do some damage, and didn't upgrade any of them. By then I had saved up so much money I could build all of my ice/storm/magic towers on level 3 and whooped the remaining levels. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3109/3153022617_976072a99a.jpg?v=0 Gonna try hard now =) Absolutely destroyed medium level.

It's easy to win with it on easy and medium (haven't try the hard) Just place it in a good spot - it has great range after upgrades, takes 2x2 square and you can only build one. Just get some money using lvl 1 only towers and leveling up interest. Then buy earthquake tower and some water towers (replace them with ice towers later) to slow them dow. Also learn the timing when to trigger it, but it's easy. You have to upgrade earthquake tower to lvl 3 to win so don't spend all your money on upgrades too early. You should try the earthquake tower.

Then did two interest upgrades in a row- before it was over I had around 20,000 gold just before lvl 43. Spent most of it and the politicians didn't make it past the first turn! Final score just under 14,000. My advice is to use Larry's tips, it worked for me.

Anyone making any progress on hard?? I can't beat it, usually don't make it past level 34.... I have been trying some different tactics, but nothing is making a real noticeable difference.

I don't think your tip applies to version 1.1.1. I just tried and a Level 3 arrow tower only sells for 59 gold now. Good tip though. I wish I didn't upgrade if that is the case. @darren: what version of tapdefense are you playing with? I don’t think your tip applies to version 1.1.1.

I try to keep with just 3 upgraded arrow towers and try to sell them before the level is over... another advantage of this is that if something manages to get past your towers, simply sell one of them and relocate it to start the barrage again farther down the map... earthquake tower ftw, 2400 gold to get it fully upgraded to cover almost half the screen and deal 2k damage, every 4 seconds!!
