Robert Workman (Modojo): If you're a fan of tower defense games - where you try to defend a point on a map by calling on several heroes and structures to keep you safe - chances are you'll enjoy OMG:TD!, also known as Oh My Gods!: Tower Defense. In it, you'll call upon various heroes and Gods to defend a point on your map, while barrages of enemies come at you. Along the way, you'll be able to upgrade characters, as well as unlock entirely new ones.
John Bedford (Modojo): Despite the festive break, a decent chunk of great titles hit the App Store during the month of December. From premium apps, to those that won't cost you a penny to dip in and experience for yourself, here's our round-up of the very best releases in that month.
Indie developers have mined various religious mythology to develop video games based on these open-sourced IPs. Previously, Microsoft's Age of Mythology (a Warcraft / Age of Empires clone) and God of War were the only deity-based games worth playing, but there are two freemium entries poised to make a big impact in the gaming world in 2014: Smite, a DotA mod from Hi-Rez Studios featuring more PVP options on the PC than Unreal Tournament, and OMG: TD!, a freemium tower defense game on Android and iOS.
WP - "Oh My Gods: Tower Defense puts your nameless hero into the world of Greek mythology, in the midst of a rebellion against the Greek gods. They can't agree on anything, so Daedalus, the "inventor to the gods" is enlisting your help to command them and use their powers to crush the rebellion and protect Mt. Olympus from being taken over by titans, cyclopses, satyrs and other mythological foes."
