Anomaly: Warzone Earth is a "Reverse-Tower Defence" game developed by 11 Bit Studios, which puts the player in charge of a military unit - the aforementioned 14th Platoon - in the wake of what, at first, is thought to be the impact of a disintegrating comet upon various parts of Earth.The theory that the objects that hit Earth were merely parts of a disintegrating comet is disproven, however, when they create energy domes around large sections of Tokyo and Baghdad - and when, after penetrating the domes, the units of the 14th Platoon encounter resistance in the form of defensive towers that have popped up along the streets.The idea behind this whole "Reverse Tower-Defense" schtick is that your squad of ground-borne units is driving slowly down a pre-selected pathway, adjustable in a Real-Time with Pause fashion. It's up to you, the commander, to choose the order and consistency of the convoy, as well as provide support using your power-suit's various abilities, such as a smoke screen to block heat-rays, a healing aura, a hologram to distract more powerful turrets, or a good old-fashioned air-strike.Now has a sequel, and a interquel too. |

Nintendo Hard: It's pretty easy to venture into Nintendo Hard territory when over-using the fast-forward function at the most inappropriate of times, but in the later missions, the pressure is increased as more powerful turrets, and occasional time limits (Such as a bridge gradually being destroyed) are brought into the equation. |

Exactly What It Says on the Tin: The four Combat Suit abilities: "Repair" repairs all of your units in a given area, "Decoy" draws the attention of the enemy towers away from your units, "Smoke Screen" creates a field that makes it harder for enemy towers to target anything inside it, and "Airstrike", which... calls in an airstrike. |

Reformulated Game: The mobile version has several differencies with the computer one. Baghdad is the only scenario and the plot is even simpler. Some missions are similar to the original ones but others are very different, with situations originally seen in Tokyo like the Escort Mission with the transport craft and the introduction of the Dragon unit (which is fully functional from the get-go). There is no commander, abilities are deployed and collected by tapping on the screen; Hacker and Harvester turrets are present but work a bit differently to accomodate the change. |
