Critic Reviews3
Defense Dome is a very simple game which could have been worthy of praise were it not for its lack of shine and poor visual presentation. While the movement controls are very well implemented, the difficulty in hitting the targets and the way the game flows is simply not addictive or fun enough to redeem it from its overall unappealing aesthetics.

Defense Dome has a number of major flaws that remove any real fun that might of saved it from being a simple throwaway title. Unfortunately, dull graphics, sloppy gameplay and lack of care and attention guarantee it is definitely a title you’ll be glad to see the back of.

A small, barebones game that quickly loses its audience due to a lack of engagement and repetitive actions.
