In every slice of pizza, a microscopic battle rages on far from your sight – mold tries to take over the pizza slice while preservatives try to wipe the mold out. At least, that’s what Korean-based gaming outfit BTNcafe wants you to imagine. Imagine a tower defense game, but this time you get to be the one on attacking the towers. If you can imagine that, you’re on your way.
The first thing you will notice is that the game is undoubtedly beset with pizza-inspired visuals. But please take note that Asia is really the region where pizza toppings go from normal, to exciting, to just plain weird. This being a Korean-made game, do not be surprised if you see toppings like broccoli on the pizza. That’s weird to you, but in Korea, that’s par for the course.
Now that the toppings are explained, the game will have similarities with Plants vs. Zombies in that before each level starts, you choose which mold you want to take into battle. There’s your basic ordinary mold, and then you progress to some explosive mold, and then a ranged mold – so many mold types to choose from, not necessarily scientific, but who’s counting? As the levels progress, you unlock more mold types.
The gameplay is pretty straightforward once you learn it. Your mold needs moisture to survive, much like sunlight in PopCap’s PvZ. You start with an area conducive to mold growth, then defend it like heck from preservatives so you can move forward. You upgrade your abilities by collecting droplets and pickles. Why pickles? Because in Korea, every box includes pickles. Don’t ask us why, please.
The game is fun like that, until you get to the point where there are lots of preservatives to fight. Then it can seem like “work” and not play, considering the amount of swipes and taps you have to do to get the job done. The game is engaging in that sense, but you can get tired of it. Don’t take our word for it though – it’s a free download at the Google Play Store. Check out the download link below.
