Damn it, it’s another “tower defense” game, albeit a pretty good one. In Protector your “towers” are various mages, and knights (called “dexers”). As you can probably guess, your opponents have various strengths and weaknesses that can be exploited by strategic placement of your troops, who level up during battle. Unlike most TD games, this one lets you see what kind of enemies you’re going to go up against in a given scenario, letting you plan ahead a bit more.
This game’s strengths lie in its polish – the graphics are really nice and even though each scenario is tuned toward a certain strategy, there’s definitely enough flexibility to keep it fun. Unlockable skills that grant bonuses during battle and give you access to new troops add some incentive to keep going.
If you dig these types of games, you should get some enjoyment out of Protector. Otherwise, it doesn’t add that much new to the genre.
