Prolific indie game maker Fishing Cactus today announced that Trenches Generals deploys to the Wii and is taking no prisoners. It is available for download through WiiWare for 700 points in both Northern America and Europe. Trenches Generals provides a unique twist on the tried and true Tower Defense genre and delivers an immersive, engaging experience.
You command a band of brothers from the Royal British Expeditionary Forces as the defender of the Free World. Your troops must take to the field and defend your bunker from being overrun. Use the trenches on the battlefield to hold your ground in the no man’s land. Lead riflemen, mortarmen, snipers and machinegunners into a certain death to conquer futile dirt inch by inch. War is hell; welcome to purgatory.
The popular iPhone/iPad hit now lets you drop mustard gas on your loved ones using the Wiimote. Make no mistake though, this ain’t no lazy cell-phone port. Trenches Generals has been designed for the Wii from the ground up and has received extra care and polish compared to its mobile counterparts. 2-player split-screen combat is enabled, A.I.
is tremendously more advanced and there’s a new Skirmishes mode that even features zombies. Zombies, baby!
“We have taken extra care to deliver a game that does the Nintendo Wii hardware justice. We certainly hope to provide the hungry Wii crowds with an instantly fun experience that offers a lot of replay value”, states Bruno Urbain, CEO of Fishing Cactus.
Trenches Generals is now available on WiiWare in Northern America and Europe for the low price of 700 points only. That is if you can find it in the famously messy online store… This alone is a strategy game in its own right!
