Robot Defense Free

Today i completed the 'huge score' achievement of 50,000,000 lifetime points in Robot Defense, one of the more popular Android games. Given it takes me about 20 mins even on the highest rated game available to accumulate 200000 points, this is at least 80 hrs investment, and probably much more.

The game is well-balanced, and a very good model of drama. In the course of the game you make many choices in the dilemma of apparently equal goods - missiles or ant-air cannon? Augment the slow tower or convert it to a mine? And the opposition steadily mounts until you fail, a tragedy, for which the seeds almost always appear to have been sewn early (poor layout, not enough anti-vehicle, not enough anti-air, oh my foolish and misplaced enthusiasms!). If you complete 100 levels intact, all is well after all, a comedy, with the affirming moral that human, not robot kind will forever dominate the earth.
