Power of Defense

The game is very boring, nothing unique. If it goes on sale for a dollar I would buy it, but for $10? Never.

[h1]For $2.50, it's fun.[/h1] You will feel like the game is cheating, which makes pushing the AI back and winning even more satisfying. Once you "get it", you can beat the game in one sitting with a few or no losses. There are 12 levels, each one taking from 6-15 minutes to win. Multiplayer is dead. Highscore tracking is broken. Mediocre music and sound but they work. You can upgrade your robots (speed, strenght, accuracy, etc.); I suggest you start upgrading once you have 400 fuel so you can have a few robots ready to go. [u]Always send your robots in groups[/u], 4-5, the last robot in the group being the Recycler. Again, once you find out how to play, you might find it satisfying and worth the money (I wouldn't pay over $3 for it).

This game would be more at home on a site like Kongregate, not as a (fairly pricey) game on Steam. I love defense games, but this one lacked depth.

The only purpose this game game should serve is that of an "enhanced interrogation technique" at Guantanamo Bay.

Quite frankly a terrible game and a waste of money. I played this last about 3-4 years ago, and I stil remember my dislike for it. The gameplay is very boring, there is no real method of progression besides the new units, and the storyline got too hard too quickly. 1/10

I'm recommending you never play this game. It's horrible. It's kind of a tower wars type map. You get about 6 robots that you assign weapons to and they walts across the screen a few times to get to the other side. If they make it to the other side, you get a point. 10 points wins. There are various upgrades and the core way to gain money is by giving a robot the "looter" weapon so that they can "salvage wrecks". As the robots crawl across the screen they shoot at each other. On paper it doesn't sound so horrible, but the game is unbelivably poor.

Its looks fun until you play it then you wish you hadn't played at all.

What an utterly pointless, frustrating and ultimately annoying game this is! I'm a big fan of the tower-defense type games, and thought I'd give this a try. In essence, your units progress up the 'board' while the enemy units move down the screen towards you. When they are in opposing aisles, they can open fire on each other. Now herein lies the most pointless aspect of the game. Start off and both you and the opposing team have EXACTLY the same three type of robots to build. Both you and the opposing team have EXACTLY the same upgrades to purchase. And both your own robots and those of the opposition move at EXACTLY the same speed (without unlock). So in a nutshell - it's a race to meet in the middle - at exactly the same time with exactly the same units with exactly the same kit. The result? A 51/49% split in success. Granted, the game is much more fun with the appeal of upgrades and working out what works well and where - but its too long and boring to even get there!

Good for a little mindless fun, but overall the gameplay is mechanical. It is like mobile tower defense, however once you know how the game works, it offers little challenge or change. The AI cheats, so you have to do the same thing over and over if you intend to win.

Very slowpaced and not much fun. Plus there is no way to skip the intro text to each mission, and said intro text is usually mindnumbingly dumb.
