In each mission you are briefed by Ninja Consultant and the occasional Ninja Pupil and the situation. As 'Ole Master you gain the ability to use 'Ole Master Powers to startle your ninjas, blow wind to hold back Mr. Demons army of devils or even fry your enemies with a magnifying glass! Nearly every map has its own feature, from cannons to multiple roads or even new ninjas and devils.
In the beginning, a horde of devils start rushing toward Ninjatown. The Mayor, being the silly person that he is, believes the devils should be welcomed with a ceremony and cookies. When 'Ole Master tells him Ninjatown must be defended and that he was going to go speak to Mr. Demon about the Devil Horde, the Mayor's strange new assistant tells him that 'Ole Master should lead the defenses while The Mayor is going to speak with Mr. Demon. This annoys 'Ole Master who stays to defend Ninjatown from the army of devils. He then travels across Ninjatown defending the city and chasing after the Ninja Star Cookie Recipe (after Mr. Demon stole it) while learning his 'Ole Master Powers and meeting new Ninja friends."

GR - "Tower defense has come a long way since its inception in Warcraft 3. Find out what the best of the tower defense genre has to offer."
Cue "but you didn't include my favorite!" comment: PixelJunk Monsters is the best TD game ever. Fact. :)
I was just going to mention that. PixelJunk Monsters was an absolute blast to play. Even better co-op with someone else. :)
It's there in the "Awesome Tower Defense Games" below the first one(at the end of the list).
Wish Ninja Town would get ported to PC or something.
Edit: Cat, when reading this, I was thinking you'd say just that :P
Castle TD is a freaking grind for crystals to level up, though. And, would love to have an ad free version for $1 or so.
Otherwise, it's got some great challenges with dastardly creep options. What's that? The four zeppelins in a row wasn't hard enough, here's some healers to show up just as you got them down in life!
Lol I'm fealling your pain man at points it makes me wanna slam my phone but I'm hooked and I don't mind the ads but I blocked them so I guess its why I don't mind them lol
It's good to see they remembered Defense Grid: The Awakening. It's the best tower defense game, when I start playing it, I just can't stop. I played many others, including Plants Vs Zombies and Ninjatown, but none gets close to Defense Grid.
StartGame: A volcano erupts near Ninjatown, which brings along Mr Demon and his hordes of devils, who are bent on the destruction of the town.
kindof a lame review.
