Heads up: Firehose Games’s tower defense title, Go Home Dinosaurs, is currently worming its way through international App Stores. It’ll be available alongside a bunch of other brand new games around 11PM EST here in the states. As we’ve covered before, it will be launching at $4.99, which seems like a good deal for a pretty fleshed out game.
In case you’ve missed our pre-release post a couple of weeks back, here’s a re-cap: Go Home is a pretty standard tower defense title with a couple of notable twists. For one, you don’t just place turrets, you control an autonomous one that you can move around a level freely to cover any defensive gaps. For another, the level design sorta resembles a puzzle game’s. Turrets are shaped like jigsaw pieces, basically, and you can only put them where they fit. Finding the perfect spacing and locking the right pieces into each other is an essential part of the late-level strategy.
All this, of course, is wrapped up in a cheery premise with whimsical visuals. We liked the game a lot after we busted out of the tutorial phase (which was way too easy). If you’ve been feening a new tower defense joint, this might be up your alley. Hit up our TA Plays and see if it clicks with you.
You can always follow your favorite games and add them to your Watch List on our app (Free), by the way. On nights like tonight it’s pretty nice to get a notification whenever they release. Feel free to add Go Home Dinosaurs if it looks good to ya.
