Game of the Month - Tower Defence II
This is officially the first Game of the Month! I’ve decided to find good flash games for instant enjoyment! I was seriously impressed with Tower Defence II. This time both Josh and I will do reviewing on the Game of the Months instead of just me. The first section is the score I give it and then my review, the second is Josh’s score then his review and the third is the combined score.
Tower Defence and Tower Defence II were both made by Pixelshocks.

Gameplay is simply amazing. Enemies will go through an area of your choosing. Their goal is to make it to the end without getting destroyed. Your job is to build towers to defeat them. There are six different towers you can choose and you can even upgrade towers! There are a variety of levels, different game modes and much more. The mouse is the source of interaction in this game.
Graphics are great. Things are very smooth and look good almost all the time. Things do get a bit messy when you have a lot of towers, but the towers can be set to transparent to fix this.
The music is good, but it’s just a continuous loop. It would have been better if there were a variety of music, but that would have increased loading times. There are a lot of different sound effects to make up for the music.
There are built-in instructions that are quite helpful. You should know exactly what to do in no time. Tower Defence II gets harder as the game progresses. If you’re skilled enough you should be able to beat most levels with ease. For a real challenge you should try an endless game and see how long you can last.
You should definitely give this game a try! Josh and I have both played and enjoyed this game. If you like strategy games then you’d probably like this. It also contains some RPG-like elements.

This game doesn’t have that good graphics or sound but the game is so much fun.
I can’t stop playing this game! In the game, you have a town and enemies will come in. To defeat them you must buy towers and people inside the tower shot the enemies automatically.
At first it seems easy but don’t underestimate the game…

It seems like we both agree that the gameplay is totally awesome. Josh seems to think that the graphics aren’t very good, but I find them fine. We both agree on the music, but it seems like we’ve got different opinions on the difficulty.
Well, that’s it for September’s Game of the Month. Look for October’s and enjoy this fine game!
