Our Expert Score
Neodefense is a minimalist's dream in the Tower Defense genre. It does away with the over-the-top fantasy or sci-fi clutter and presents a clean, neon-lit grid that focuses entirely on strategy. The difficulty curve is perfectly tuned; the early levels teach you the importance of pathing, while the later stages require precise placement and timing of upgrades to survive the 'Neo' onslaught.
What I love most is the visual feedback. The way the towers pulse and the enemies shatter into neon fragments is incredibly satisfying. It feels like playing a game inside a TRON circuit board. It doesn't try to reinvent the wheel, but it polishes the TD mechanics to a mirror finish. If you're a fan of classic tower defense games like Fieldrunners but want something more modern and visually striking, this is a must-download.

Tips & Walkthrough
Select a tower from the bottom menu and place it on the grid. Enemies will follow a set path (or a path you create, depending on the level). Upgrade your towers using currency earned from defeated enemies to increase their range, fire rate, and damage.
Gameplays
Observe the enemy types coming in each wave. Some move faster, while others have more health. Balance your spending between placing new towers and upgrading existing ones to ensure no enemy reaches your core.

needs some changes....
Mon Oct 09 2017 eleven32igood replacement for geodefense, but i agree that it would be more fun to pause and build/start upgrades for strategy. I beat all levels of beta except bonus, but gamma level 1 is unwinable by any means. I think it's a really bad idea to have everything move so fast. it's like entire waves can come through in under 2-3 seconds. it's less strategy at this point and just how fast can i repeatedly drop and upgrade towers, which makes it less fun then geodefense was. I also would like to see my high score compared to others, as well as see if i completed the level flawlessly, or with leaks. BUT its still awesome and i would pay $5-$8 for each level pack instead of $1 easily. update: nevermind, I beat every level, including gamma and bonus. keep difficulty high, but maybe add an easy setting. The only way to beat any of these higher levels is to stumble upon the fact that any tower built in the exit wavy circle gets double damage. very unclear on that.
Overall good, needs some improvements
Wed Dec 27 2023 Lady GiannaI loved geodefense, and neoDefense is also lovely. I do wish there were different game modes like on the old app. Sandbox, where the difficulty is the same as regular, but you start with a large amount of money so you can strategize and figure each level out. That would be most welcome. Also Endless, where the mobs start out super weak and gradually increase to extreme difficulty so you can build up insane weaponry. A high score table for this would be awesome. Update: It’s been almost a year without any new levels, which is disappointing. Would really love an endless mode still. It would also make sense to put weapons on every level once you buy the expansion packs. I also wish new levels were introduced more frequently. Again, an endless campaign would be better to hold us over while waiting for more expansions.
Excellent variation on a theme
Tue Mar 01 2022 azswClearly taking much from geoDefence, neoDefence has several variations that improve on the original. The obvious difference is that the booster is effectively a fourth element as it only works with cannons and the cannons, the cannons must be adjacent the booster, and the cannon no longer shoots normally and cannot fire without power from the booster. This makes boost charge management vital and adds depth to the harder levels. Additionally the price of the weapons vary between level groups so the relationship between weapons and between upgrade levels for weapons changes as you progress.
Wonderful tower defense game of the old school
Mon Jun 08 2020 Love the 80sLots of beasties and cool graphics make this a fun game. Breeze through the first eight levels and then be ready to manage your resources responsibly. I’ve been looking for a simple tower defense game like GEODEFENSE and this is that game. Hey Developers: email me your script for those in-game messages after each round and I will happily fix the English into grammatically correct sentences. Or just hire a proofreader? It’s a great game. I hate to have your English speaking audience thinking you guys don’t know what you are doing when clearly you do.
Great game, need new levels
Thu Nov 04 2021 Sad KrustyI enjoy tower defense games and this game is among the best. It could be made better by adding priority to individual towers, like first, strong, weak, near etc. most importantly the game teases future levels but I guess that’s been the case for years. The levels are great and as you proceed they become more challenging, I have reached the end of game but there is one level I cannot beat, would pay for new levels gladly!
Keeps getting better
Tue Jun 27 2023 Aner3129This game started out as a good update to GeoDefence. It is now mich more than that. A great example of how a developer can keep improving a game. I don't mind at all paying for new levels as they are developed, because they are always thought out and interesting. Would love to see iCloud saving. It is annoying to loose progress.
Fun but a bit too finicky
Thu Sep 15 2022 iPhonerarooniAfter the demise of Geowars—the best ever iOS tower defense game—I’ve searched for a good replacement. This comes closest but many of the advanced levels require really, really specific weapon layout that transforms them from almost impossible to really easy. Finding those layouts can be pretty random and sometimes is sensitive to arbitrary timing issues. That part of this game I really don’t like and just reflects laziness of the designer. For reference, I’ve played through Eta.
Love it! Addicting fun!
Fri Oct 06 2017 RyanC-KYReally great game that has all the great qualities of a tower defense. This one is almost a replica of "geoDefense" which was a favorite of mine. My main issue is that the first several levels are almost too easy and then I got to level 11 (treble clef level) and have literally lost at the exact same spot 32 times in a row, trying as many combinations of tower strengths and locations as I can come up with.
