Super Energy Apocalypse Recycled
(4.88)
Loading ...Our Review
A mix of base building and tower defense, set in an apocalyptic future where the planet has been ruined by pollution. Cue mutant aliens! The game alternates between building (daytime) and defense (nighttime). To do well you need to expand your base to provide power (coal mines, solar power or nuclear?) to your defense turrets, not to mention mining resources AND making sure you don't cause more pollution than you can clean up – as the mutants turn into super-mutants if they eat pollution. A well-made game though the garish colour scheme might take a little getting used to.
Our Rating: 3 / 5

Instructions
The game is a point-and-click RTS. Play campaign mode first to get introduced to the game. In general: You control the game with the mouse. Your defense buildings work completely automatically : all you have to do is place them. Click on buildings in the right-hand menu panel to select a building type, then click on the ground to build that thing. Zombies come when time reaches zero! Plan your energy economy by day so you can afford to defend yourself at night, but be careful! Too much smog and garbage (the byproducts of your industry) will just make the zombies stronger! Also, press the green "help" button for detailed instructions.
