7/10

A top-down tower defense game with a neon, Tron-like look. The first few enemy waves are easy to neutralize, letting you familiarize yourself with your futuristic weaponry. Soon, though, the attacks become more intense, giving you more bad guys to blast, more cash to burn, and more weapons.

WIRED Different-colored weapons let you survey your setup at a glance.

TIRED Only 10 missions in campaign mode. Little variety in enemy troops.
