    Great Tower Defense

    I am a little disappointed that the Giant Bomb did not pay more attention to this game but it was actually one of my favorite games of this year.

    Firstly it is very funny, and not just the dialog and the story (although those are pretty funny) but the actual traps themselves. Seeing an Orc going flying into a giant pit of acid, hilarious. Also you start the game with some amazing traps, and somehow every level the traps get more interesting and funnier. Finally the game difficultly is just about perfect. While it is not that hard to get 5 skulls on some of the earlier levels you really need to have your stuff together to get it on some of the later levels.

    Anyway this game is a little short but you can grab it and all the dlc for less than 5 bucks during a steam sale and that is MONEY WELL SPENT.

Levels are short and varied and enemies never get more hp, run faster, or any of those usual tower defense tropes. In fact ...

      Orcs Must Die!(PC) by junior_ain on January 02, 2014

      Has there ever been a title that so fully explained what's in store for the player than "Orcs must die!"? They must, because should they not you will. Not-so-long story short, master wizard tripped, hit his head and is now dead, his not-so-bright apprentice takes over when it comes to stopping Orcs from entering the rift, some kind of magical kingdom or something like that, there's also a mad witch leading the Orcs to battle and you must stop them before everything goes to hell.It's pretty simpl...
