PixelJunk Monsters Description
PixelJunk Monsters is a simple puzzle game with elements of real time strategy. Game development is the responsibility of Q-Games studio, which has PixelJunk: Racers, among others.
The action takes place in a forest presented from the bird's eye view. The game consists in repelling the attacks of various monsters on our castle. Their waves are pushing along designated paths until they reach its vicinity and begin to eliminate the inhabitants. We, on the other hand, move around the area without any restrictions. Between attacks we have time for proper preparation. We must erect buildings that will help us to exterminate monsters. Fortifications are available in several varieties. Some are more effective when enemies approach short distances, others are extremely quick to shoot, and others slow enemies down. A powerful weapon is a lightning storm, which we can send to a group of enemies. The defeated enemies leave behind special coins and crystals. We can use them to build new turrets and improve existing ones. We defend ourselves through twenty different levels, played during different seasons of the year.
The graphics are two-dimensional and give the impression of being drawn by hand. Models of monsters and turrets are designed in a very simple style, which gives the game a childish, frivolous atmosphere. PixelJunk Monsters has a simple multiplayer mode. Allows two players to participate in the game on a cooperative basis. People from all over the world can also compete with each other indirectly by placing their performance in a top performance ranking.
