Monster Mayhem is a castle defense/shooter game developed by Chillingo for the iPhone. This quick start guide will provide you with tips to get started playing Monster Mayhem. If you've played other defense games such as Knights Onrush or Plants vs. Zombies, the gameplay elements should be quite familiar.
The thing about castle defense games is that they are frantic by necessity. There is zero depth to tossing enemies into the sky with your finger so that they splat on the ground. Most developers up the intensity by piling on more and more invaders so that the game becomes a test of your dexterity. Monster Mayhem piles on mechanics instead—giving you a full arsenal of weapons, giving you a full bestiary of creatures to take on, and giving your finger a much-needed rest. The shocking thing is that it totally works. Why can't all castle defense games be this diverse?
Ghosts and goblins and other scary creatures that go bump in the night aren't something we need to worry about on a daily basis. You probably think that's because they're not real, but you're wrong. The only thing keeping these monsters from interrupting your morning coffee and stepping into our everyday world is the graveyard Gate Keeper. In Chillingo's upcoming castle defense action game Monster Mayhem, it's up to you to keep those monsters at bay by any means necessary.
