Touch Arcade: With the release of one long-awaited tower defense game out of the way, it seems as if other developers are now stepping up to the plate, looking to ride the proverbial wave of increased interest in the classic iOS genre. Commando Jack [$0.99], from the folks at Colossal Games and Chillingo, is one such tower defense. However, while the majority of Commando Jack follows the general themes of tower defense rather closely, its ability to jump into the action first-person style does a good job of differentiating the game from the rest.
Going Commando can mean many things to many folk, but here at Kiss, it means the launch of Commando Jack – the baddest, meanest, toughest soldier planet Earth has to offer! Only Commando Jack can save the planet from alien invasion – are you up for the challenge?
Rahman writes - "Bottom line, Tower Defence games are evil. They suck you in with simple controls, mechanics and concepts, before throwing everything it has at you, faster than you can think. This method of ramping the stakes up is artificial and unappreciated since the game doesn’t actually get harder, you just have more enemies to deal with. Something that adapts to your methods, that’s impervious to certain tactics, that’s difficulty done correctly."
"Commando Jack, a game a legend. Commando Jack is the titular character in Colossal Games new tower defence game. Commando Jack has you play as tough, shoot first and ask questions later one man army Commando Jack. I am a big fan of Tower defence games and I like the different ways they can be played such as FPS tower defence games like Sanctum to classic style tower defence games such as Defence Grid where you watch the towers do all the work. So which side does Commando fall on?" says calmdowntom
