Hordes of invaders are emerging from the bowels of the earth to enslave the people of the surface. Follow the resistance of the planet's defenders against an army of steam-powered robots in a rare Victorian-era steampunk atmosphere!

Venture through the icy mines and battle in an abandoned underground city. Defend your base by placing towers in tactically advantageous positions and use special skills to defeat the soulless steel army. Each level will take you further into the depths of the planet in search of the source of threat. Your task is to defend your machines from various enemies – some are protected by armor, some fly and others are vulnerable only to electricity.

Use tactics to exploit your enemies' weaknesses and achieve victory. Prove your mettle in a storm of fire and steam!
  • 40 levels of varying difficulties!
  • Earn rewards and upgrade your weaponry
  • 12 types of towers and skills!
  • 15+ special enemy characteristics

I love Tower Defense games, and Iron Heart does not disappoint! I prefer TD games that take place on the water, but this is a decent game with robotic themed warfare. The rules of engagement are fairly simple, place weapons such as machine guns upon the available Towers, and keep the enemy from reaching the Steam Locomotive and enslaving humanity. Each weapon can be upgraded for a broader range, and more damage, once you have earned enough funds from destroying the enemy. After each battle which consists of 5 or 6 waves, you can visit the shop to purchase upgrades that will make each individual weapon more powerful, or have a broader range, you can also select common bonuses that make the weapons cheaper, reap more money from the enemy or even give you a larger starting fund which will allow you to purchase more weapons sooner. You will earn more money if you start the waves of attack sooner that the countdown, and each level gives you a new type of defense weapon, and of course a faster, stronger enemy to go along with it. If you are looking for an action packed game that requires strategy, is fast paced not to mention very addicting, look no further, enjoy! Show less

I didn't rate the Storyline since there was really none. I loved a challenge and this game gives you one. I like to play a game that lets me choose to enable/disable the music since I'm not into music during a game, great if I were a child who loves to hear it. I prefer the sound in the game.
If you are into mini-war games this is a good one.
I recommend this game!

I am always excited when this company releases a new game and I bought this one after only a 10 minute demo. This is a different tower game with a different theme but all of the familiar, recycled, villains and weapons, all by different names. The game before this employed traps and just didn’t have the same panache or fun quotient of the tower games. Here they fixed that. They also made this game ...Show more
I am always excited when this company releases a new game and I bought this one after only a 10 minute demo. This is a different tower game with a different theme but all of the familiar, recycled, villains and weapons, all by different names. The game before this employed traps and just didn’t have the same panache or fun quotient of the tower games. Here they fixed that. They also made this game really tough. Possibly too tough; that remains to be seen. I had to replay the first level of the second group four times to get three stars. Even the initial level took three tries. When you begin to lose, sometimes you just have to completely change your strategy. The artwork is rather dark, in color and mood, and the steam punk theme seems to work. Show less

I love TD games & I was excited to see this, since for some reason there's been a glut of awful games making their way to Big Fish lately & I had hoped this would not be another one.
I held out hope because I had not (until now# ever played a poor Tower Defense. But alas! I tried to play Iron Heart #obligatory 2 part name) for 15 minute stretches over a period of a few days, each time hoping I'd

I held out hope because I had not (until now# ever played a poor Tower Defense. But alas! I tried to play Iron Heart #obligatory 2 part name) for 15 minute stretches over a period of a few days, each time hoping I'd get into it & enjoy or that something would improve but no.
The graphics are extremely annoying, the pace, not good...the towers are set at silly intervals & places & the items and spells & whatnot are just not doin' it. No no no.
Bring us more QUALITY games! They are out there!!! They're there. I swear they are. Why aren't they making their ways to here? Show less

Love TD games. Looked forward to a new one. Only played the demo and tore through several levels. Graphics boring and lacked color, detail, or interest. Music annoying and repetitive. Weapons lacked variability which made game play so-so. For the first several levels, one weapon sufficed with upgrades. That's not a great TD game feature.

Weapons lacked variability which made game play so-so. For the first several levels, one weapon sufficed with upgrades. That's not a great TD game feature. Not enough power-ups or arsenal-type add-ons unless they appeared much later in the game. Overall, didn't motivate me to buy. Maybe the Toy Defense series spoiled me with the color and fast action.

The basics of all TDs are there but nothing more.The game difficulty is pretty fine, the pace quite slow but the graphics are very repetitive after few levels. The paths are small with few possibilities for strategies. Some weapons fire bullets in different direction than what they are aiming at which looks odd.

I bought this game immediately based on my enjoyment of every other game by this developer. I wasted my money. I've tried for 3 days to play this game, hoping it would improve before my eyes, but alas, its not going to happen. Strategy is non existent - weapons graphics are not different enough from each other to easily identify - no easy, medium, hard levels. And the track is ridiculously short ...Show more
I bought this game immediately based on my enjoyment of every other game by this developer. I wasted my money. I've tried for 3 days to play this game, hoping it would improve before my eyes, but alas, its not going to happen. Strategy is non existent - weapons graphics are not different enough from each other to easily identify - no easy, medium, hard levels. And the track is ridiculously short and boring with no overlap spot to strategically place the first weapon when money is tight. Tower placement is haphazard and ineffectual. There is no indication of which direction the next wave is entering the track. I am actually deleting this game entirely as there is no hope for it. I certainly hope this is not a new direction for this developer, but maybe an old game re-issued after the success of the previous games.
Do not waste your time or money. Show less
