    Actually a fun game, but it suffers the problem every mobile game faced, in app purchase. The game itself is actually quite nice, with beautiful 2D sprites (recycled from older Metal Slug games, but still) player's progress is halted by unseen paywall in the form of difficult levels that requires the user to pay real money to buy more powerful units to beat the game.

    An interesting Tower Defense twist for one of the best 2D arcade shooters out there. Challenging and fun to play.

    Metal Slug Defense is a Must Have casual strategy game and a thoughtful mobile adaptation of the classic arcade series.

    A decent hybrid of action and strategy, dressed in pixel-clothing and tons of charming details for the hardcore fans to enjoy.
