Gi - Tower defense games have been around for over ten years now. They started as custom maps for the classic RTSs Starcraft and WarCraft III. Lately however, there have been a plethora of full fledged standalone tower defense releases. One such game is the 2008 release Defense Grid: The Awakening. Furthermore the developer, Hidden Path Entertainment, raised enough money through Kickstarter to release Defense Grid: Containment on Jan. 23, 2013. But does Defense Grid do its predecessors justice, or is it just a cash in on a new genre?
