Editor's take
The browser version of the tower-defense classic, and it still humiliates almost everything made since. The genius is the economy of dread: sun trickles in just slowly enough that every planting decision is a gamble, and the moment you feel safe a conehead shambles into the lane you skimped on. Twenty years of imitators haven't dulled the design — five lanes, a lawn, and an army of plants with exactly one job each is a system so clean it teaches itself. The merge-friendly browser build is gentler than the original's adventure mode, but the core loop of scouting a wave, adjusting your defense, and barely holding the line is fully intact. It also happens to be one of the best-playing touch games in our entire library. Best for: strategy fans who want horror dressing without the jump-scares, and anyone who's never understood what the fuss was about — you will by level three.
