The first game I remember picking up for my iPhone when iPhone OS 2.0 hit was <a href=\"http:\/\/click.linksynergy.com\/fs-bin\/stat?id=boISyYkY0ls&amp;offerid=146261&amp;type=3&amp;subid=0&amp;tmpid=1826&amp;RD_PARM1=http%253A%252F%252Fitunes.apple.com%252FWebObjects%252FMZStore.woa%252Fwa%252FviewSoftware%253Fid%253D297558390%2526mt%253D8%2526uo%253D6%2526partnerId%253D30\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">TapDefense<\/a>. So it&#8217;s to be expected that some form of tower defense will be on my iPhone at any given time. The problem is that I am a perfectionist when it comes to tower defense and will often stop playing a game in frustration because I let only one enemy through my defenses. Nevertheless, 7 Cities is one of the most unique tower defense games I&#8217;ve ever played, as it has set paths for the enemies to travel but doesn&#8217;t use a square grid system for placing towers, but rather a hexagonal grid, allowing some fairly unique methods of tower placement. I highly recommend you look into this game if you are a fan of tower defense, even if just for the opportunity to fire at a sea monster as it heads toward the town you must protect.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/click.linksynergy.com\/fs-bin\/stat?id=boISyYkY0ls&amp;offerid=146261&amp;type=3&amp;subid=0&amp;tmpid=1826&amp;RD_PARM1=http%253A%252F%252Fitunes.apple.com%252FWebObjects%252FMZStore.woa%252Fwa%252FviewSoftware%253Fid%253D324563544%2526mt%253D8%2526uo%253D6%2526partnerId%253D30\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Civilization Revolution<\/a> &#8211; I have never been a big fan of Civilization, mostly because I prefer real-time strategy games on the computer.
