$20 Game of the Week: System Protocol One (PC)

System Protocol One is a tower defense game with old-school style vector polygon graphics and a catchy techno soundtrack. Its unique plot is computer related, and everything in the game is in terms of computers. You are a security administrator charged with protecting his company’s system against viruses, which are the enemies that come across. By using cache (resources), you create a number of anti-virus programs (which are the towers you’ll build) to stop them. Just like any good tower defense game, you’ll have a variety of towers to use with a variety of different abilities. The game is quite challenging, and the tutorial is quite lengthy, which may intimidate players. However, the game is easy to pick up and play, and players who have a passing knowledge of Tower Defense games will have no problem playing this. Mastering it however, that’s a whole different story. It’s available for $10 on Steam, and of course they’ll have specials on it frequently.
