Is It Any Good?
Tower defense games are quite common in the app store, but this reversal of the game model in Anomaly Warzone Earth HD, which puts you in the role of the troops walking into the kill zone, is a wonderfully creative and entertaining twist. The game has tons of variety in troops you can deploy (as well as upgrades you can choose) and giving you plenty of options as you choose your route. The production values are high and there's even a story that doesn't feel tacked on. It's an incredibly sleek, fluid game that might appear simple at first glance, but gets deeper and deeper the more you play it. And it's an absolute must for strategy fans. It was also the winner of the Apple Design Award.
