Defense zone provides a stunning detail of levels, in-depth gameplay, finely tuned balance of all levels and turrets.
Defense zone is an innovative tower defense game for the Mac and other platforms. Tower defense games are one of my favorite games for killing time.
This game has gameplay mechanics that I hadn't seen in games of the genre before. The first feature that caught my eye is Hellfire. This is sort of a power up that towers that have been upgraded at least once have. When activated, weapon loading times are significantly reduced. After Hellfire has fired, it will take some time to load, so you need to use it strategically. Another interesting thing I noticed when playing Defense zone was that the path that enemies have to cross bifurcates. This means that enemies might come from different directions in different waves. Also, after a set number of waves, airplanes make an appearance, which means that you have to keep that in mind too when building your defenses.
Defense zone has a "Lite" version that lets you play the first three levels of the game for free. If you want to continue playing, you will need to buy the full version, for only $4.99.
Pros
- Lots of different enemies
- Hellfire

- Lots of upgrades
- Entertaining
Cons
- None
A nice tower defence game, where you are to destroy rows of foes trying to go by your protective turrets.
