![]() Like PvZ there is also a last ditch safety mechanism, but instead of lawn mowers, in Go Home Dinosaurs, it is a whole lot of explosives piled next to the grill (not very safe if you ask me) that will take out dinosaurs if they get too close. You’ll want to have a mix of cheap and more expensive ‘towers’ so that you can get defenses on the board more quickly. I’m surprised we don’t see method used in more defense games as it creates a particularly nice element of experimentation and allows for more individual creativity. This reminded me a lot of the way PvZ allows you to select your defenses as well. At the start of a level you get to decide which (and how many of each) you will equip your gopher with for the upcoming backyard battle, up to the designated hand limit. Though overall the touch controls are perfect for this style of game and really intuitive.Īs you progress through levels you will unlock a total of 18 defense cards and gain the ability to hold more cards. However I will say that sometimes I did have a little difficulty selecting the correct card. The game does a really nice job of showing you the attack range of any given weapon while you are placing it and rotating defenses to fit is super easy. Each type of “tower” has a unique footprint (shaped much like a Tetris piece) so you have to plan out where it will fit onto a grassy area of the backyard. Once you have enough coconuts to purchase the desired defense, you simply drag the card onto the playing field wherever you want it. Defenses vary in both power and cost from a DJ that attacks dinosaurs from two sides with loud music, to a snowball throwing gopher which slows down enemies, to single-use items like a big barrel of TNT. You simply tap the tree and your gopher will move to that square and collect the coconut. Fortunately coconuts (unlike money) grow on trees which will random appear on squares spread about the backyard (sort of like the sunflowers in PvZ). Each card represents a specific type of armament (usually adorable) and costs a certain number of coconuts to evoke. More powerful defenses can be built using the handful of cards at the top of the screen. Your most basic defense consists of getting your gopher positioned close enough to the advancing troops to throw rocks at them. ![]() In each of Go Home Dinosaurs‘ 60 levels players must try to stop advancing hordes of hungry Dinos using a very limited number of resources, as they march along the winding (and sometimes not so winding) paths laid out on a grid-like backyard toward your delicious steaks sizzling succulently on the grill. Zombies and even Tetris, but crafting them into a truly unique and rather charming gaming experience. The game takes a somewhat different approach to the tower defense genre, borrowing a number of elements of Plants vs. It may be an absurd plot, but it is one that is just crazy enough to work and the folks at Fire Hose pull it off brilliantly. Go Home Dinosaurs is a port of Fire Hose Games’ popular 2011 PC Tower Defense game in which players must position their various gopher armaments along a winding path to keep the BBQ crashing dinosaurs from stealing their delicious steaks. ![]()
