Sentinel [App Store] is one of the best tower defense games out for the iPhone, and it’s just getting better with age thanks to Origin8’s commitment to updates and improvements. 1.4 features a hefty helping of new content, as well as some much needed balance changes.
At $2.99, Sentinel was hard to pass up, but with the addition of new maps, enemies, and turrets and $0.99 price drop, this is a must-have for anyone interested in the genre.
Here is the complete list of changes in 1.4:
- New map added
- New type of turret added
- New enemy added
- New destroyably structure added
- In-game music is now available
- Repair drones now have a toggle for repair/harvest
- Easy and Medium skill settings are now easier
- Hard and Psycho skill settings are now harder
- Many minor balance changed and bugfixes
My favorite feature of Sentinel is the repair bots, and having the ability to toggle their functionality is going to add a whole new layer to playing the game. Getting them out early gathering extra resources is vital for quick tower upgrades… But can your base manage without repairs?!
As soon as I’m finished with this week’s Star Defense Tournament, I’m sitting down for some quality time with the new Sentinel update.
