Most adventure games on smartphones are often designed with leveled learning curves to allow the player to get through stages progressively. Garfield's Defense, however, seems to bring back the same hard times that old gamers have experienced during the time of 16-bit screens.

The smooth, seamless motion and color palettes of the game's interface make it seem like you're simply watching an episode of "Garfield." We have even used an Android 3.2 unit, which makes gameplay a lot more fluid (though it can be used on older Android units). The game's mechanics are very enjoyable and there are lots of things that you can do to progress levels. Collecting different unconventional weapons is one thing, but you can also "hire" other characters to aid you in defeating the aliens. Even with help it isn't a sure thing you'll easily advance to the next level. We found the game both highly addictive and a bit frustrating when we got stuck in a level; it took some time and dedication to advance.

Garfield's Defense looks cute but it's still a pretty hard adventure game. Don't expect to move easily through the levels just because the game is based on a cartoon cat. If you like a challenge, Garfield's Defense offers beautifully rendered graphics and increasingly tough levels to conquer.

Developer's Description

The celebrated Garfield comic come to life in a free action strategy game!

"Take me to your freezer!"

Alien Food Invaders attack the home of Jon Arbuckle and his cat Garfield! The invaders are almost as dangerous as they are ridiculous. They want to capture food to convert it into vehicles and weapons which they'll use to take over the Earth.

Garfield will not tolerate such a dismal, lasagna-less future, so the lazy cat is taking on the alien meatballs!

Garfield's Defense combines siege and tower defense for an epic action-strategy game in which you defend Jon's fridge from waves of zany attackers.

You control Garfield, who has various comical weapons at his disposal including forks, rolled-up newspapers, and a launcher capable of firing a dozen cheap plastic toy cars at once. Garfield can summon characters from the comic strip, including the slobbery Odie, Nermal, Wade, Orson, Arlene, and Jon.

Prepare for alien anarchy - FREE!

You'll need fast reflexes and clever thinking to dodge the aliens, decide which friends to summon, and launch counter-attacks. One wrong move and Garfield could end up in a world with no people - and no lasagna.
