Revenge of the Stickmen

It should be fairly obvious by now that I like strategy games, which is why I often like to point out the desktop tower games. There's a new one out called revenge of the stickmen. The stickmen are coming out of the computer to wreak revenge on all who have done such horrible, horrible things to them over the years.

Place your towers, or in this case, pens, staplers, cell phones and staplers across the board to bar their way. Destroy them all before they escape out the window.

The game has some nice graphics, although the 3D effect causes the towers to overlap. That makes it harder to find the tower you want to upgrade. But that's only a slight annoyance. Not a lot of fun sounds.

Strategy: build up a cash reserve and make sure to spend your bonus (heads) on interest rates to help even more. Later on in the game, you'll need the extra cash to get by. Also, don't forget air defenses. Otherwise they'll blow right by you.

Once the stickmen enter your maze, they won't readjust their path unless they are forced to. So don't worry about selling a tower that's right next to a stickman. It won't suddenly change direction to take that space.

Once real criticism I have is the lack of ability in building multiple towers. Picking your tower, placing it and going back to the 'build' menu in the corner is slow. When you're trying to build up your maze, it's quite a pain.
