From the stable of Bloons creator Ninja Kiwi comes an all new version titled Bloons Tower Defense, released in August 2007. It is a traditional tower defense game where monkeys take over as most of the towers and you have cute Bloons as the evil enemies, hence maintaining the Bloon ethos of getting monkeys to pop balloons with darts. Here are some of the key aspects of the game:

Bloons Tower Defense works just like a standard tower defense game. You have a line of Bloons which stream in on paths and you can build towers around these paths to stop them from traversing the entire route and escaping. The game has 50 levels and you have 40 lives to get through them. Each Bloon which gets through the defense costs you one life, and as the levels rise they get progressively harder.

This crazy monkey game has 5 different types of towers, the Dart Tower (which is actually a monkey), which throws darts at a fast speed to burst balloons, the Tack Tower, which releases tacks at slow intervals to whittle the balloon level down, the Ice Tower, which freezes balloons at a slow speed allowing them to be destroyed by bombs (and bombs alone), the Bomb Tower which dispenses those bombs at a slow speed, and the last, which is also the player favorite for obvious reasons and is way more expensive than any of the other towers, the Super Monkey Tower. All these towers can be upgraded at a cost to include stronger or faster attacks and longer ranges. (more...)

Online gambling has changed the traditional casino-based face of gambling across the globe. As the industry attempts to deal with these changes so have governments had to introduce new legislation to ensure that online gambling is as well-regulated as casino based gambling has become.

A website like Gambling.me is the best place to keep up-to-date with any changes to online gambling legislation. It also provides a wealth of information on tournaments and gaming which are coming up.

Very few people would seriously attempt to deny that there is a sneaky little gambling streak in most of us, but we generally keep it under control. Years ago the man in the street would have some harmless fun each week with the football pools. A few shillings on a perm could bring in a fortune if he found those elusive 8 draws on a Saturday. Then the premium bonds appeared, and later the National Lottery, bringing with them an air of respectability to gambling, so that now many people have the odd flutter without thinking twice.

The problem with these types of gambles is of course that, although the stakes are low and the prize money high, the odds of winning are also astronomically high. You have more chance of being struck by lightning than winning the lottery. Since the internet has become easy to access for almost everybody there has been a vast increase in sports gambling and gaming sites, and you can now visit a casino online which is arguably more fun than just placing a bet at the local bookies. There is a wide array of games to play, many being variations on the old style slot machines, and you can while away the time with the expenditure of only a few pence.

The traditional games of roulette and Blackjack are still quite popular and the online versions are very realistic, giving you an experience that is close to being in a real casino. You may need to download software and some may be wary of that, but often sites allow you to play in real time without the need to download anything. (more...)
