About Red Wave TD
Communist forces have invaded America! Do you have what it takes to stop the Red Wave?
Red Wave is a real-time strategy and tower defense game with a totally unique look — every unit and tile is hand-drawn in colored pencil and scanned in.
Take command of American forces and hold the line across America.
STORY CAMPAIGN - 6 MISSIONS
• Mission 1: Crossing the Rio Grande - stop them at the southern border
• Mission 2: Remember the Alamo!
• Mission 3: Mighty Mississip' - hold the river
• Mission 4: The Siege of St. Louis - defend the secrets hidden below the Gateway Arch
• Mission 5: Marine One Down - the President is down in Nashville. Save him!
• Mission 6: Escape - crush the tank brigade fleeing to the Atlantic
Plus 3 Skirmish maps for quick play: Beginners Field (Easy), Two Rivers (Medium), Surrounded (Hard).
BUILD YOUR DEFENSE
• Marine - cheap, fast rapid-fire infantry
• Pillbox - tough fortified gunner
• Landmine - hidden one-shot boom
• Artillery - long-range shells
• Rocket Launcher - massive splash damage
HOLD BACK THE WAVE
Conscripts, Jeeps, Tanks, and Rocket Trucks that shoot back. Earn gold for every kill, build fast, and hold the line.
MADE FOR ON-THE-GO RTS

• Quick sessions, perfect for mobile
