by Staff Writer
October 26, 2009
Genius Defense Force is a brand new game coming form Clickgamer. It’s a brain teasing game combined with defense style. Your objective is to solve math problems to blow up asteroids that are coming straight towards Earth.
Each asteroid has a number, and you’re given three numbers and two equation symbols to try to calculate that number. For example an asteroid is 6 with numbers 3, 2, and 9 with x and / and you try to reach 6. So it would be 9/3 x 2 = 6.
30 levels are included with increasing difficulty, and each level is graded A-F based on how many asteroids hit earth. Every level requires you to add, subtract, multiply, and divide your way to blast asteroids.
As you progress you can also play any level on special guru mode maximizing the difficulty. The entire game has a comedic story, given to you in bits each time you advance to a new level. There is a professor, and young lieutenant operating the defense base. You will find out the story behind why so many asteroids are coming all of a sudden.
The thing about playing the game is reaction time. You don't only need to be able to solve math problems, but also do them quickly. The asteroids don't have far to go to hit Earth, and travel quite quickly. You need to figure out these problems right away or Earth will be crushed.
The game was submitted October 14th and should be available any day now. We will have an in-depth review when it enters the App Store.
