    Fieldrunners Review

    Fieldrunners is a desktop defense type game for the Apple i-pod Touch and i-phone. It will put you on one of three fields where you will have to build defenses against the invading armies with different types of weapon towers. This is a not a free game from the App Store.

    The graphics look really good and clean on the system. Each tower has a very unique look to it so there's no way to get confused between them. They also have very apparent upgrades so you can tell at what level that specific weapon is at. Also the different types of enemies look great. You're going to have your big guys with guns, helicopters, tanks, what looks like a robot on treads, motorcycles, and off road vehicles.

    The controls are pretty easy, if you have the money all you have to do is place your finger on the type of weapon you want to place on the field and then drag it to the position that you want it at. There is a pause button, which you might have to use if you get into a bind. You can also tap on already placed weapons and either upgrade them (max of 3) or you can choose to sell them, if it's just not quite working.

    I really can't talk about the sound or music, because I've honestly never listen to it, this game is the kind of thing that I just get quick little sessions in without the earphones.

    The gameplay is really simple, you're going to be placed on a map of your choosing (you have to unlock maps as you go), choose the difficulty, and then you're in the game placing towers trying to protect your base. Your base has 20 points of life, once they are gone its game over. There are other modes to play instead of just playing classic, you can also play endless which is a true display of endurance as you're going to get wave upon wave upon wave of enemies. 

    This game might be very simple when it comes down to it, but it looks great, plays great, and is addictive to those out there into this type of game. I got this game by recommendation, and I'm happy to say that I'd recommend this game as well. With a $2.99 pricetag I think that this game is worth it. So if you have the Apple i-pod touch or i-phone get this game and see how much this game rocks. I give this game a 9.5 out of 10.
