AppSpy: If you're one of the many people who enjoy the movie and you're after a fun defense title, there's no reason not to give Army of Darkness Defense a spin; unfortunately it suffers from many of the problems of the genre - notably the need to grind it out to finish the game.
Triverse writes, "Army of Darkness, the movie, is one of those guilty pleasures that everyone should enjoy at least once in their lifetimes. The movie has it all, gore, action, comedy, adventure and the man, Bruce Campbell. The game features a caricature of Bruce and some of the background players from the movie put in the foreground now. Game play wise this is a defense game through and through, not a bad thing, but not much more."
I played this on a flight overseas. It's a good defense game. Not too difficult and fun for the time I playes it. Didn't play it after I beat it. Love the movie and enjoyed the game.
Note: if you ever pick up an old copy of Evil Dead Regeneration, play it. It's one of my favorite games of the Xbox/PS2 generation. And a really good movie IP title with a ton of humor.
Throughout the years, There have been a few Evil Dead or Army of Darkness games made, and the old that licensed games suck rings true for most of those. When Backflip Studios decided to bring our favorite protagonist to iOS devices, I’m sure many people had their reservations on what this iteration would bring.
In 1992, a horror-comedy fantasy film hit the silver screen around the world. Its mix of slapstick humour and action scenes led to a box office success. Nearly two decades later, its legacy lives on with the release of the film-based game on iOS.
