Tower Defense!

Strangely enough this game is on an engineering website. Apparently this game is based off of a mini game or something off Warcraft 3, but it doesn't matter what it's based off of because it's still an addicting game.

The premise is simple: little circles are going through a maze thing trying to get to your castle, and you have to build turrets to kill them. It may not sound fun, and it gets tedious in the middle (when you a lot of upgrades but the enemies are still weak) but it is strangely addicting. It really does get hard after 50 waves.

But just try it yourself and discuss.

There are websites dedicated to this kind of game. Just Google Tower Defense.



EDIT: Just realized I have gotten to Level 50 on this game, and then quit.

Its pretty addictive thats for sure. I only got as far as 14 though.

I got to 64. Just built vast amounts of the water towers then upgraded them. There's no challenge, no skill involved it's just placing towers. I've played much better.

You guys should try the actual tower defense maps for WC3. This flash, while good, doesn't do it justice.

Agreed. Tower Defense is the best map variety on WC3. Though most of the good ones on WC3 are actually "mauls", usually TD is just Gem or Green. I would suggest a Shopping Maul game if you can find one. Gem TD is fun, but the learning curve is a bit steeper and there's not much room for mistakes.

Also, this game is fun, though it's not my favorite flash tower defense. I much prefer Vector TD (http://www.towerdefence.net/?page=games&game_id=77&title=Vector%20TDX) myself.

I agree with the Maul maps, they are really good. The Elemental TD maps are also a blast, though they can be a bit easy. I just love all the upgrades your towers can get!

Best TD in WC3 was Tower Wars. I used to kick ass at that game by spamming so many people.]

Also I got to 54 and it just got boring.

[Spiffy13]

I love Warcraft 3 TDs. Anyways, I got to level 62.

psh, beat that ages ago.

Oh yeah, the TD games in Warcraft III were great. Addicting. Some of them were really hard, some were really easy, some were really easy once you knew what to do...
