It takes a lot for me to buy a game when there are plenty of time wasters at the iTunes App store for FREE. But after a friend of mine showed me this game, I was immediately in love with it. Finally, a tower defense game for the iPhone. (for $4.99USD)
FieldRunners has 3 difficulty settings (easy, normal, hard) and only 4 different types of towers. Each type of tower can be upgraded twice. If you’ve played tower defense type games, then this game is a sinch to pick up. If you haven’t, the simple instructions tell you how to play. Just a quick tip for the tower defense noobs out there, try to make a maze with your towers so you can reuse each tower 2 to 3 times.
2 more screens after the break.
At this time, I do not know how many levels/waves there are, I’ve only made it up to level/wave 43 on Hard mode. I haven’t tried easy or normal difficulty yet. (Them Ninja-Bear-Tanks are tough!) If you pick up this game and get a high score, post a screen shot of it in the comments below! I would like to see what other types of waves there are past 43.
