Dungeon Defenders: First Wave (Free)

Currently the only free game in TegraZone; Dungeon Defenders is one part tower defense and two parts hack and slash RPG. Your job is to build turrets to defend a crystal, while you use your character to mop up and stragglers. You can upgrade your character's gear as well as your turrets, though I recommend watching the tutorial as things can get confusing as you delve deeper into the customization options. The game ran quite smoothly on the G2x, though it still looked slightly better on my iPod Touch. Building turrets and planning my defensive strategy was fun, but using my character in combat was not. The game's targeting system would often choose an enemy on the other side of the room, even if there was a baddie right in front of me. I found it best to just sit back and let my turrets do all the work.

Bottom Line: A unique take on the tower defense genre, it's worth checking out.

Backbreaker THD ($4.99)

Backbreaker is definitely the best looking game in the TegraZone right now. Textures looked rich and motions were fluid. That said-it's not a very fun game. Backbreaker is a football game where you try to score a running touchdown without being tackled along the way. Unlike other, fully-fledged football games like the Madden series, you can't choose plays and there are no other modes you can play. Every time you score a touchdown, the game puts you further back on the field and adds another player who is trying to tackle you. After just a short time, you'll probably just want to put the phone away and go outside to actually play football rather than do the same thing over and over again.
