iPad Review: Jelly Defence
Posted: Mon Nov 21, 2011 2:33 pm
It wasn't that long ago that I played my first ever Tower Defence game: Pixel Junk Monsters on the PS3.
Since then I've run with a few others, but none as uniquely graphical as Jelly Defence.
As you can see it's a beautiful looking game, very stylized and attention seeking. Best yet, it's not the best part of the game, that is reserved for the gameplay.
It's simplistic, and that is in no way bad, infact it's another charm the game has up it's sleeve, but despite being simple, it's actually quite challenging, even on the early stages it's pretty tough to 100% a level.
The weapons too are really straight forward, red/blue for 2 different colour enemies, red for red enemies, and like wise for blue. I'm not sure yet if any other colours are involved because I've not finished it yet, but I'm definitely getting there.
Different enemies and different towers require different strategies, for example, put the "embarresment tower" next to the "bomb tower", so when the first tower slows them down, the second can get a couple of big hit in and really do some damage.
So with that said, if you're an experienced tower defence player I think you'll still find this a new and invigorating addition to your collection, if you're new to this type of game, you're in for a treat.
Thought:
Very addictive
Looks amazingly different to anything I've played before, and looks good to boot.
Nice little extra bonus'
challenging
the main element is fun.
Highly recommended.
