Gamers who want something completely different.

Why we picked this?

Perloo requires you to abandon all of your assumptions. The puzzles play with physics, quantum mechanics, philosophy, optics, and perception, so without a clear mind you won’t make it very far. Don’t expect any hand holding or explicit instructions, either. You’re all on your own in the nine mind-bending puzzles. The game also includes an original soundtrack that will help save your sanity.

You’re idea of fun is complex problem solving. The puzzles may seem simple on the surface, but looks can be deceiving.

You’re easily frustrated. Perloo will certainly stir some emotions.

Why we picked this?

The zombie hordes are advancing on your castle walls, but don’t worry, you’ve been preparing for this very moment. Erect massive towers and focus your artillery on the packs of zombies headed your way. If and when your defenses begin to fail, unleash special attacks from your heroes and utilize power-ups to finish the fight. The game includes four different heroes, 20 levels, and more than 40 zombie characters to annihilate.

You enjoy tower defense games but want more direct control. The ability to utilize power-ups and heroes keeps the action flowing.

You’re impatient. There isn’t a way to speed up the units.
