12 years later, DG & DG2 are still my best experience of a Tower Defense like.
Towers hold the line Every path becomes a trap Strategy prevails
I like the story and drama elements between the Ai... it it better than the 1st though? have to finish it to find out.
Simply put, this game can be considered as one of the benchmarks of tower defense games.
Great Game to bad they Did not make a Defense Grid 3 and 4
Really solid game. When it comes to tower defense, the "Defense Grid" series is the gold standard. That's hard to top.
