I love seeing a unique take on the genre and Major Warhead definitely creates a new game out of the Tower Defense and Line Drawing genres. The goal is to defend your base from waves of enemy soldiers, tanks, jeeps, etc. On one hand, you control two cannons by touching where you would like to fire, and on the other hand you also have a helicopter that you can send out, line drawing style.

It's a lot of fun, for the first 50 or so rounds, after which it gets a bit repetitive as you can't upgrade your cannons or build anything new. I wish there was a way to set your own save game spot, because the game automatically saves when are close to losing the base, so even if you try to continue from that point you'll never win because most of your base (and probably one of your guns) will already be destroyed.  The dialogue coming from the attackers becomes pretty annoying quickly and borders on racial stereotyping.. in a bad way.

Then again, it's only 0.99 and is fun, plus once a major update is released the game could become much better.

 

PROS CONS
  • Great use of touch control
  • Great mix of fun genres
  • Easy to learn
  • No construction/upgrade ability
  • No variety of towers/guns
  • Becomes repetitive quickly
  • Takes a while before game becomes challenging
