Strategy or Tower Defence: Which Suits You?

People lump strategy and tower defence together, but they scratch different itches. Tower defence is reactive — you set up, then respond to waves in real time. Strategy games are usually about long-term planning and managing an economy.

If you like tense moments and quick decisions, tower defence is your genre. Games like Ironline Defenders keep you on your toes every wave.

If you'd rather sit and plan, a base builder like Skyward Frontier gives you room to breathe and think ten moves ahead.

Plenty of games blend both, and those are often the most satisfying. But knowing which side of the fence you lean towards saves you a lot of wasted downloads.
