Collection of good tower defense games

I have some free time and now I'll make a list of my favorite tower defense games.

  • Tanks and Towers - amazing compilation of tower defense and offensive game. You can build towers or make tanks to attack the enemy. The game is very good strategy but may be too hard for newbie players.
  • Born of Fire TD - fantasy themed tower defense game with heroes and skills. Actually a combination between TD and RPG. The art is a little Heroes3 like.
  • D.I.Y TD - open map tower defense game. One of my favorites as you make the path for the enemies.
  • Armed Defense - cool little tower defense game with military theme. I still don't get how poison and water towers fight against armored vehicles but the game is fun and addicting.
  • Blob Tower Defense - in this game you build towers of squares that shoot the enemies. Its different than your regular tower defense game as you watch the game from one side.
  • Mini Tower Defense - this is another tank-themed tower defense game.
  • Red Storm Defense - a sequel of the popular Red Storm series. I like the robots and upgrades here. The game is very addicting and with fifteen levels.
  • Bloons TD4 - I think that everyone knows about these series so I don't need to say much. Very good game with great gameplay.
  • Germicide TD - one of the best tower defense games ever. In this game the theme is biology as you fight microbes that have infected you. The game is really fun, addicting but also somewhat hard. Anyway, another of my favorite games.

Temple Run

There are so many games out there that when you’ve finished one it’s hard to know which one to pick up next. After spending a lot of my time playing Flash games, I was looking for something a bit different and that, ideally, I could play on my phone while I was on the move. I stumbled across a forum thread about Temple Run and was initially disappointed that such a compelling and different sounding game was only available for the iPhone. I’m stuck with my Android phone for at least another few months.

I forgot all about it until a couple of days later I saw the headline “Temple Run Android Released”! It seemed like fate. Well, okay, if you think fate is relevant when we’re talking about wasting more time on another game! A few minutes of downloading later and I had the game in my hands.

That was a week or so ago and it feels like I’ve been playing the game non-stop! I’m sure that my aching fingers would agree. I feel a complete slave to the coin collecting mentality - collect coins, buy upgrades, collect more coins, and so on. You can of course buy the coins from their oh so temptingly priced store but for some reason it feels much more sensible to me to spend hours collecting them than part with real cash!

If you like the game, there are plenty of fan sites out there to keep you up to date with it - Temple Run Online seems to be a pretty good one - I found out from there that new characters and powerups have been introduced to the game over the last few months.
