Anomaly: Warzone Earth

On a near-future Earth under alien attack, you play the Commander leading an armored convoy through hostile city streets. Rather than build defenses, your squad pushes through the alien turrets guarding each route.

Plan the convoy’s path through the street map, choose which units to deploy, and support them as they fight automatically. Use abilities such as smoke, repairs, decoys, and airstrikes to respond to threats while the convoy advances.

Collect resources to buy units and upgrade the squad during missions. The game includes a story campaign set in cities including Baghdad and Tokyo, plus two Squad Assault modes.

Players who enjoy the game often praise its reversal of tower defense: instead of placing towers, they plan a convoy’s route through enemy defenses and intervene with timely support abilities. Reviewers also appreciate the tactical pressure and distinctive presentation. Others find the repeated route-and-ability cycle grows monotonous, and some report steep difficulty in later missions.
