I have to be honest – I'm not really into the whole desktop tower defense gaming movement that seems to have emerged about a year ago, but I cannot deny the fun of Dungeon Defender.

The designer admits that he was inspired by Dungeon Keeper and if you're familiar with that PC gaming classic, you'll see it immediately. Unlike many of the other tower defense games I've tried, this one has a lite RPG element as well as a touch of real-time strategy. I don't know if it has the staying power of some of the others, but it's a fun diversion.

I apologize in advance for any time wasted.
