Harvesting alien souls has become the gentlemanly art du jour, thanks to the release of Boom Brigade 2 on iOS devices.
Combining the genres of real-time strategy and tower defense, Boom Brigade 2 follows in its predecessor's footsteps by offering an unabated focus on micromanagement and team-based warfare on the go. Alongside a 30-mission strong single-player campaign is a raft of complementary game modes, including survival skirmishes and a spate of hectic "Medical Emergency" romps to satiate one's fix for high-pressure rescue missions whilst on the train or potting the brown.
AR: Boom Brigade 2 wants to be the perfect combination of weaponry, alien defense, tactics and mayhem. I found it hard to deny it that honor.
For a new title on Android that was preceded by word of mouth of its iOS-exclusive prequel, I thought that it came out of the gate swinging. Literally. The premise is simple. You are defending an outpost in alien territory. Bodies are light, enemies unending… but the weapons… the weapons, dear sir, are in in wonderful abundance. It’s the galactic version of Assault on Precinct 13. The staples are all there: opened ports, an abandoned highway and a guard post.
Today game developer 10tons announced that the action strategy game Boom Brigade 2 is now available for Android devices in Google Play. The first chapter is free to play and the rest of the game is unlocked with a single in app purchase of 2.99 USD.
Pocket Gamer: Military types often say that a good soldier is one who follows orders to the letter without questioning or deviating. If that's the case, then the soldiers you command in Boom Brigade 2 are a dream come true.
You see, your small gang of four heavily armed combatants (up from the original's three) will follow the exact path you sketch for them. From here they'll target and open fire on any enemy that falls within their attack radius.
