  4. Jay Says:

    Hey man, awesome list. I had a ton bookmarked myself and thought I had them all but you found even more than me! Please keep this updated with new ones, appreciate having all the links in one page. Thanks again!

    A huge tower defense fan…

  5. Jason Says:

    You’re welcome and I’ve added another TD game, Keep the Keep. Enjoy!

  6. fireblade Says:

    wow.. very nice site, i love it xD 1 bookmark needed

  7. fireblade Says:

    oops forgot to say, now i can delete my other 5 bookmarks!

  8. Jay Says:

    You added SO MANY. Great now I will be up all night playing these. What a fine job indeed! :O

  9. fireblade Says:

    yea, i really liek the pre release Roman, but after wave 80.. it just got boreing.. the 1st 1 was fun because it was hard a bit around wave 70 u needed alot more maxed towers, V2 u just get earth and it owns, get the biohazard, and the guys will NOT and will NOT get 2 inches out from the start untill wave 300 or so, but yet its pre-realease, im very glad u got that td

  10. Jason Says:

    Yeah, I love the original and am happy to see v2 in development. I played it a little and found it to be very buggy. I somehow managed to be able to buy unlimited towers… the only thing that limited the purchases was the required level.

  11. fireblade212 Says:

    woo i think i just created a account, but cool, yea the limit of towers, i hope it to get better

  12. fireblade212 Says:

    wow.. like that harvest.. ima download and try it using full anti virus technology at the same time

  13. fireblade212 Says:

    attack of the creeps is the wrong site

  14. Jason Says:

    Thank you Fireblade. I fixed the link… again, I had one too many http:// in the address. WordPress automatically throws one in and occasionally I forget to clear that out.

  15. fireblade212 Says:

    man, that harvest game is probly the best 1 out there

  16. Jason Says:

    I’m downloading it now… will let you know what I think

    Update: The game has good graphics, animation, and sound – that’s for sure. What I found lacking was a score, waves, something that displayed some accomplishment.

  17. fireblade212 Says:

    its open beta, ive read alot and the developers have alot for planed, they are working on a highscore system, it will be a buy to play game later (after oct 1 or later)

  18. fireblade212 Says:

    how do u edit comments?

    sorry for the double, but yea the game will get more game mades, wave, insane, hard, wave is where you send them out yourself, threat level is your level, im on level 31 (saved), got myself a nice little base, i zoomed ahead b4 i stoped to see the massive army after me, game gets very fun after u get to like threat level 11 and after

  19. Jason Says:

    I think you have to have an account and signed in to edit posts.

  20. fireblade212 Says:

    yea i have a account and im signed in as fireblade212, see my avatar lol

  21. Jason Says:

    hmm, nah don’t see you on list of users or an avatar…. very strange.

  22. Jay Says:

    I am on Threat level 33 of Harvest, and yea for such a beta game I would have to agree this may be one of the best ones out there. Bummer you will have to pay after Oct. but it may be well worth it…

  23. fireblade212 Says:

    they will have a demo that will contain wave (supose to be the funnest)

  24. Dchem Says:

    ya i got to level 60 and i couldnt manage my resources that well and died horribly….. there were so many ufos

  25. fireblade212 Says:

    wait till your level 200+ haha, its horible

  26. Jason Says:

    Fireblade, I’d enjoy a screen shot of the level 200+ chaos. I’ll add a link from the blog to it, if you can get one.

  27. fireblade212 Says:

    haha, search the site screenshots there a bunch, but okay ill get ya 1, give me a minute

  28. fireblade212 Says:

    haha, man when i rached level 140, time just flew lol, but heres 3, the 1st 1 is just massive energys, 2nd 1 is showing how much my power laser has killed (i have 3 others with about the same kills) and the 3rd 1 is showing u the map and every single alien in the game (besides the fast 1)

    Dont mind the bubble in the top right, that was ment as a joke for a friend

  32. Dchem Says:

    only bad thing about onslaught when you get to lvl 420 or more you go frame by frame >.>. Wish there was a way to turn off the animations or something.

  33. fireblade212 Says:

    yea i know, notice my lives and mines? thats why i stoped

  34. PostScript5 Says:

    Here is one not on the list.

    It has 3 maps (dune, river, cliff) with natural obstructions which can impede or slow the creeps. Includes high scores too.

    http://www.victorygaming.com/development/games/turret_wars.html

  35. Jason Says:

    Thank you PostScript5. I appreciate the link!

  36. Allen Says:

    It was already up there.

  37. PostScript5 Says:

    Ack II

  38. Jason Says:

    I had thought it sounded familiar, but when I glanced through the list I didn’t catch it. I then played it and picked a different map then the first time I played. I coulda swore it looked familiar though – heh. Regardless, thanks to both of you.

  39. fireblade212 Says:

    well.. update sanine please, its “released” now, and you have to register to play

  40. Jason Says:

    Thank you for the update, FireBlade… I’ve been pretty busy at work lately and had lot’s going on in the evenings and haven’t been able to update much.

  41. fireblade212 Says:

    yea um, i was on the potty thing, and now i cant find it

  42. Mikey Says:

    Thanks for this list. Been looking for a good central place for TD info and happy to say that it’s been found.

  43. Jason Says:

    Thank you Mikey. There are a lot of lists out there but, I do believe I keep mine the most updated and have the most links. It is a fun hobby :-) If you run across any that aren’t on the list, please let me know.

  44. sloyt Says:

    heres one i found that you dont have its not a bad game and just a bit different

  45. Jason Says:

    Great Sloyt – thank you.

  46. fireblade212 Says:

    lovely game, i think its bugged as i had 9 lives, 1 guy got out and i lost…

  47. sloyt Says:

    not sure if it is bugged or not i just thought it was because of the lv and if they got though they took that much out with them.

  48. stu Says:

    hey has anyone finiched keep the keep on hard? the best i’ve been able to do is about 67000.

  60. Jason Says:

    Thanks for the comments guys. I’ll be back around in the next few days and update the blog. I’ve been really busy with work and my personal life lately.

  61. kellie Says:

    There is a more updated desktop tower defence version then on this list at…

    http://www.handdrawngames.com/DesktopTD/game.asp

  62. balah balah Says:

    jeez this is a good list

  63. Jason Says:

    Thank you. I’ll be updating quite a bit of links as well as changing the format of the list in the next couple of weeks… check back!

  64. Ezo Says:

    Hey, nice list of games :)
    WHy not link to Tower Defence.net?
    THere u can play them all :)

  65. Jason Says:

    When I update the listing to the new format, I will place a link to towerdefence.net. We both share each other’s links and discoveries the way it is. To be truthful, I started my list without knowing about tower defence.net. It wasn’t until I saw someone link to my blog from there that I knew about it.

  66. sloyt Says:

    looking for a few people who have the warcraft 3 and expansion that want to play a few of the TD’s they have (ok quite alot) if so AIM me @ aceheart66

  67. kellie Says:

    I found a new TD game today. It’s called Saurai…it’s a bit different. I’ve tried it once, thought I’d share the link before going back again. Kewl game.

  68. Jason Says:

    Wow, great Kellie! Thank you!

  69. redspider93 Says:

    hey, heres a link to a game I ran across. http://www.sugar-free-games.com/playgame.php?game=1335 It’s called hold the holy pig for some reason or another. LOL and yes, in case you’re wondering, I’m new here.

  70. Jason Says:

    Thank you everyone for the links. The site has been updated! Welcome all new visitors. I welcome any comments you may have.

  71. Mikey Says:

    Thanks a lot for the update.

    By the by, I have invites for the Casual Collective (Multiplayer DtD and other games) if anyone would like one.

    thatmikeykid at gmail dot com

    :)

  72. Mikey Says:

    “The Lost Tower” under ‘Installation and free’ seems to be a dead link:

    This page has been deleted or no longer exists please click here to return to the noodan home page.

  73. Jason Says:

    Thank you for the update Mikey… I will fix it.

  74. kellie Says:

    Here’s an updated Antbuster….it’s version 1.2 just found it. Not sure what the dif is yet. have fun.

    http://www.rstein.org/antbuster/index.php

  75. kellie Says:

    Your temple guadian link is dead, here is one that works
    http://www.9mine.com/play/game_2218_Temple%20Guardian.html

  76. Jason Says:

    Thank you Kellie… updated!

  77. Anonymous Says:

    Sorry about how long it took me to get back to the peeps who asked for Casual Collective invites. I still have a few more if you don’t mind waiting a day or two for me to check my mail. :P

  78. Mikey Says:

    Oh, yeah, that was me. :)

  79. kellie Says:

    ahhhhhh im dying…..I can’t get through lvl 6 on xeno tacticts…….HELLLP!!!! any tips whould be MUCH apreciated.
    kellie
    aka…getting pissed
    lol

  80. Ezo Says:

    Hey Jason, usefull site you got here!
    I am interested in a link trade between this site and towerdefence.net, mail me if you would like to do some together aswell.

  81. Jason Says:

    Thank you Ezo. I’d be up for a link trade… I think it’s already unofficially been happening. I’d mail you if I could figure out what you email address was. If you post it here, I will remove it after I snag it. Thanks!

  82. Jason Says:

    Kellie ~ I’ve not played Xeno much. Does anyone have any strategies on it? Or any other TD games for that matter? I will find a way to incorporate everyone’s hints, tips, and strategies if they are submitted.

  83. fireblade212 Says:

    um.. dont die kellie thats a tip, um i love the new games, gj

  84. Jason Says:

    I think it would be a good addition to show community high score for the games on the list. If you have done exceptionally well, link to a screen shot in a comment and I will update the games listings with high scores, waves, money, etc. The screens can show proof of the accomplishment so that they cannot be disputed. Competition is good :-)

  85. kellie Says:

    woohooo. Check this one out. Just found it.
    Epic Tower Defense

    http://www.shockwave.com/content/epictowerdefense/sis/index.html

  86. Jason Says:

    Thank you Kellie… fine work! Epic TD looks really nice!

  87. fireblade212 Says:

    yea but it takes up soooooo much space, 200kb on my firefox and it starts to lag after a little bit i got downt o 2-5 fps

  88. Mikey Says:

    Anyone else notice that “epic TD” is a web-based version of the download-able “When Orcs Attack”? I wonder what the story there is.

  89. Jason Says:

    Great observation… I didn’t realize that.

  90. fireblade212 Says:

    Wow.. its the same thing….

  91. Dan Says:

    The current link to Invasion Tactical Defense tried to download some drivecleaner spyware.

    This link appears to be clean:
    http://www.gamefudge.com/Invasion-Tactical-Defense

    It’s also but hosted on Newgrounds, but I wouldn’t trust that site either….

  92. Jason Says:

    Thank you Dan… updated

  93. Jayson Says:

    Thanks for linking to Rise of the Robots (RotR). The idea is to have a basic tower defense game where you play either the towers (robots) or the mobs (humans). We track the best players and their game play is listed on the high score page. The ’score’ isn’t points in the game. It is the average score you get if your strategy is played against all of the others. For example, the best human strategy is the one that on average beats all of the robots as fast as possible. Likewise the best robot score is the one that beats all of the human strategies the fastest.

    Please let me know if you have any feedback for the game. It is our first release and we’re looking forward to revamping it!

    http://www.falkemup.com/rotr/

  94. Jason Says:

    It’s my pleasure Jayson!

  95. Mikey Says:

    Your proposals sound interesting, I wish you luck with it!

  96. fireblade212 Says:

    wow Jayson, i only played humans and owned it in about.. 1 minute but robots is nother story (found out bout i after your comment) ,, seems very nice

    btw jason, this comment section is wayyy to big lol

  97. Jason Says:

    Yes, lot’s of comments. When I move to the new site I will probably wipe them.

  98. fireblade212 Says:

    you need something that has pages and only shows like 5 comments

  99. Jason Says:

    I’ll make changes on the new site

  100. The red spider Says:

    Hey Everyone (except Mikey who I know has one), do you have an account on “The Casual Collective” yet? (That’s the multi-player Desktop Tower Defense)

  101. fireblade212 Says:

    yea, i do, i think alot of people here have 1

  102. fireblade212 Says:

    whats that? 107 responses?

  103. Jason Says:

    Heh, that was just for you fireblade… kidding. I’m not sure why that popped up. On the new site, I will be implementing paged comments so that I won’t have a huge list anymore displaying on one page. I’ll probably do that after I get the new tower defense page created and functioning properly.

  104. Jason Says:

    Thank you Radar. I have that Tower Defense game but with a link to the original developer’s website. It is listed as Defender, above. All updates will be made to the new website, so please direct comments there. http://www.timewastersparadise.com/?p=4

  105. fireblade212 Says:

    wont let me comment, and it hasnt sent me my activation email

  106. Jason Says:

    Hmm, interesting… I show you as a subscriber. I will try to figure out what is going on. Thank you.

  107. Jason Says:

    Fireblade…I am going to delete the user you created. Please try again. Other users have joined and posted successfully. Maybe it’s a fluke. Try again, please.

  108. fireblade212 Says:

    did you disable the mail function?
    hmm, it didnt work again, am i signing up on the right thing? and im going to try gmail

  109. fireblade212 Says:

    nope, sorry it still doesnt work, its a totally different site from this right? i dont need to use this acc do i?

  110. Jason Says:

    Fireblade, check your yahoo account.

  111. kellie Says:

    Wow, I tried the updated xeno tactics game. grrr. I was sooo close to beating the old one…now it’s twice as hard. Not sure I like the price changes they’ve made. Makes it so tough starting with lvl 2 even.

  112. kellie Says:

    LMAO, I just went to try AGAIN on xeno, the guy musta tried his own game and come to the same conclusion, cuz between last night and this morning, he changed the prices back…lol. Must go try again now. Have fun.

  113. Jason Says:

    Kellie ~ come on over to the new site!
