SteamWorld: Tower Defense News
Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? (April 1st)
Flame on
One week ago today we were looking at the calendar and commenting on how things seemed pretty quiet for Nintendo to round out March and then out of nowhere — boom! — we're hit with our first proper look at The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and everything changed. Yes, this was the week that we fell thoroughly back into the...
News SteamWorld Series Creator Admits 3DS eShop Closure Is A Little Bit "Upsetting"
A DSiWare classic is gone
It seems Nintendo's closure of the 3DS eShop has been just as upsetting for game developers and publishers. Speaking to 'Kit & Krysta' recently, SteamWorld series creator and Thunderful Group co-founder Brjann Sigurgeirsson admitted it was sad seeing 3DS owners lose access to the 2010 DSiWare origin title SteamWorld:...

Win the soundtrack, a stylish hat, games and more
SteamWorld Heist was one of a few high-profile and distinguished titles to land on the eShop in December, and unsurprisingly developer Image & Form is getting ready to step back and take a break for the Holidays. It's released one final episode of 'The Engine Room', however, with a neat prize on...

Is also honest on the DSiWare store's layout...
SteamWorld Heist is likely to be on quite a few wishlists ahead of its planned Fall release on the 3DS eShop, with a later arrival also due on the Wii U. It's the continuation of what's rapidly become Image & Form's key IP following the multi-platform success of SteamWorld Dig. We previously...

The steam age
With SteamWorld Heist getting close to release on the 3DS - coming a little later on Wii U - its developer Image & Form is keeping itself busy in getting eShop fans talking about the game and its franchise.

Exclusive New Instalment in SteamWorld Series Under Development for the 3DS eShop
Brjann Sigurgeirsson spills the beans to us
SteamWorld Dig, since its release on the 3DS eShop, has gradually matched critical acclaim with greater awareness and success on the platform. It's certainly a title that's captured the imagination of many regular 3DS eShop regulars, picking up plenty of positive word of mouth. We've spoken in detail to...
Developer Interview Image & Form on SteamWorld Dig, 3DS Development and Working With Nintendo
"3DS gamers are generally more experienced than mobile gamers"

Nintendo Download 9th July (Europe)
Plenty for everyone
As with every week, DSiWare gets the lion's share of releases this week, although most of it is not too stellar, or at least not likely to be. WiiWare gets a long-awaited fighter plus an interesting Nintendo-published title, while VC gets another ninja action game. WiiWare: Toribash (1000pts - Nabi Studios) — A very strange...

News Enter the Steamy World of Tower Defence
Buy, build, blast
We've already seen a number of tower defence games on the DSi, but there's always room for one more. A good job really, as next week sees the release of SteamWorld: Tower Defense from Swedish developers Image and Form. Taking a steampunk-inspired approach to the genre, you're the role of Sheriff of the Cowbots, a robotic race that...
About The Game
SHERIFF WANTED!
SteamWorld Tower Defense is an action-packed strategy game for Nintendo DSiWare™. Set in a wondrous world of steam engines, brass and polished wood, you take the role as Sheriff of the Cowbots, the robotic master race of SteamWorld.
All is not right in the great Western reaches – the humans are invading your lands! They have a mad
lust for gold, incomprehensible to even the greatest of Thinkbots. As they draw closer to your capital city, you must stop them before they reach your gold mines! Use the special skills of your robots to your advantage in this original Tower Defense variation, where strategy and execution are equally important.
You take an active part in the defense by directing your Sharpshooters at extra dangerous targets. Taking out explosive enemies in the midst of their own ranks has never been as satisfying!
