Critic Reviews
Still the best tower defense game, but the magic’s missing
Defense Grid proves it’s still the best tower defense series on the market, but that’s mainly because everyone else stopped trying.

90%Defense Grid 2
What I said at the start is really the same thing I will say here – Defense Grid 2 is more Defense Grid, meaning that this is one of the better entries in the genre that you can currently pick up on Steam. It brings back everything fans liked about the first title, while coming up with mechanics that ease the stress of failure that can come with the genre. It might be thin on story and full of bizarre chatter, but solid mechanics and great game modes make this a jolly great time for anyone with an interest in towers, defence or raspberry lollipops.
