    Years of waiting have finally paid off with another polished strategic offering that improves upon the original in almost every way.

    Fieldrunners 2 takes the cartoonish tower defense fun of the original and expands it for even more fun.

    Fieldrunners 2 blends the right amount of charm, skill and entertainment to make not just the best tower defense game of 2012, but one of the best iOS games all year.

    It's not clear what the four year wait was in aid of but despite only a few, small, new ideas this is still one of the best Tower Defense games on any format.

  1. This is a fantastic follow-up to the original Fieldrunners. This sequel improves on the original in every way! I highly recommend this game! Well done Subatomic Studios! Expand
  2. Fantastic new approach to tower defending. Highly recommended.
  3. This game is singleplayer-gameplay wise a BF3 and COD MW3 beater. Epic strategy combined with a lovely Tilted experience. You just want to move faster than you will ever do and also have time left to enjoy how your canons and "lightning-frying plants" crush every opponent on ground or in air. Wat a ride! Expand
  4. 8
    Steep learning curve, great towers and upgrading and long, tough and replayable levels, this game does not beat the bet in the genre (Pixeljunk Monsters) but is pretty high up there. Expand
