Kingdom Rush on the game anthology spine

What the Kingdom Rush card lets us say

We opened com.ironhidegames.android.kingdomrush on 16 October 2026 and filed it first because the header prints 4.7 stars from 853K reviews. That star figure is higher than Smash Hit at 4.5, higher than the two 4.4 cards, and higher than Plants vs. Zombies 2 at 4.1. The download band underneath is 10M+, the smallest bucket on this spine. The rule we are using does not promote a larger bucket over a higher star figure, so the smaller band stays a fact in the row rather than a reason to move the card down.

Ironhide Games is the developer name on the link under the title. The content rating line reads Everyone 10+. The header badges read Contains ads and In-app purchases. The updated line reads Oct 16, 2025. We did not find a public file size or a version number on the card, so this brief does not invent either one.

What works on the printed card

The about text describes tower defense battles, tower upgrades and specializations, and fighting across forests, mountains and wastelands. It names orcs, mountain trolls, necromancers and demons, and a figure called Vez'nan. It talks about heroes and towers, and it says the battles can be played offline. Those are the developer’s sentences on the listing, not a session we ran.

The data-safety block says the app may share App activity, App info and performance, and Device or other IDs, and that it may collect the same three categories. It says data is encrypted in transit. It says data can’t be deleted. We stop at those phrases. The store category chip we saw was Kids, on the FAMILY category path.

Where the Kingdom Rush card stops

The card does not print how large the download is, which Android release it asks for, or a changelog beside the Oct 16, 2025 date. A year between that update line and our check is visible on the calendar. We do not turn that gap into a claim that the app is abandoned or that it is unchanged. We only record that the updated line is older than the other four.

The about text uses the language of a campaign — bravery, victory, a kingdom. We do not treat those lines as measured outcomes. The 4.7 figure is a store aggregate from 853K reviews, not a score we assigned after playing. Ads and in-app purchases are badges, not a price list. We cannot say what the purchases cost.

Who this listing suits on our spine

On a spine sorted by stars, this is the card we point to first. It suits a reader who wants the highest printed star figure in this set and can see that the install band is the small one. It is a poor fit for a reader who came for the largest download bucket: that bucket is on Geometry Dash Lite. It is also a poor fit if the household rule is “no ads” or “no purchases”, because both badges are on the header, and the content rating is Everyone 10+ rather than Everyone.

The install still happens on Google Play. We are not Ironhide Games, and this page does not hold the file.

The line we would not add

We would not write a megabyte size, a version string, or a permission list. We would not average this 4.7 with the other four stars into a spine score. We would not call the card newer than it is. The next check will either repeat Oct 16, 2025 or replace it, and the archive will keep both dates.

How the game anthology spine holds this card

We keep a written rule next to the table so a later check can repeat the order without remembering a mood. The rule is short: sort by the star figure on the header, and if two figures match, sort by the download band Play prints. Kingdom Rush is the only 4.7. Nothing else on the spine can pass it unless a later check shows a higher star figure or this 4.7 moves down. The 10M+ band is recorded beside it so nobody later “corrects” the order by size and calls it the same rule.

The updated line, Oct 16, 2025, is the oldest of the five. We put that age in the update log as a date, not as a complaint. Ironhide’s about text still describes offline tower defense, heroes, towers and a set of enemies. If a re-check finds a new updated date, the archive gets a row and this paragraph changes. Until then the sentence stays tied to the card we actually opened.

The Everyone 10+ line and the two badges, ads and purchases, travel with the card onto the parent page. A reader who only saw 4.7 would miss them. The data-safety summary names App activity, App info and performance, and Device or other IDs for both sharing and collection, plus encryption in transit and a line that data can’t be deleted. Those phrases are the whole safety note we are willing to print.

We also keep the package id on its own line because it is the only stable handle if the title wrapping on Play changes. com.ironhidegames.android.kingdomrush is the id in the store URL we were given. The still on this page is a screenshot Play served with that listing, shown whole, not cropped into a banner.
