Allrighty, my first blog :) The titel says it all: PixelJunk Monsters. A tower defence game. I bought a PS3 for next gen gaming. Got enough expensive games like GTA4 for example, but what do i play most? A simple made game that cost me around 5 euro's :) Downloabable on PSN and very very addictive. The original game came out some time ago, and i ended the game recently by finishing all games to the end. Now there is a
expension pack available: PixelJunk Monsters Encore!
So whats the purpose of this game? Well, you have a home base with a bunch of little chaps. you need to defend those chaps from EVIL creatures that come to your base. You start with a little money and you can build defensive towers in the trees. Every tower you see in the image below was a tree before. Offcourse you have many different towers and creatures. Towers for ground units and air units. there are special creatures with some kind of shields, thats you can only kill with a special kind of tower for instance. You gotta place those towers on the right spot, else you will lose. If you end the level with all chaps remaining you will get a rainbow. If you get for example 5 rainbows, a new road will open to more difficult levels.
Let me post a little screenie below:
The screenshot above is not the complete image. The home base is not really visible. Here is the link to the full image: http://news.filefront.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/pixeljunk-monsters-encore.jpg
The above screenshot is the first medium level of the expension pack. I completed this level, but not with all my little buddys still alive. So i still dont have a rainbow. I also didnt buy the laserbeem for airunits, but only a firetower for those special creatures that die fast when they get hit by fire.
Anyway, this game is toooo addictive, so thats why i wanted to share this blog with the world. Not that people enjoy reading this if they dont know the game, but you now get a tiny view of how my little free time looks like. Playing PixelJunk Monsters!!!!!
