Protect and defend in Dillon’s Rolling Western
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
A new take on the Wild West in Dillon’s Rolling Western for Nintendo 3DS available exclusively via the Nintendo eShop
22nd February 2012 – Join Dillon, the ranger armadillo, on his colourful 3D quest across the Wild West to save villages and their livestock, the cute scrogs, from invading rock monsters named grock. Dillon’s Rolling Western™ will not only test your quick thinking and skill in the heat of battle, but also your preparation and planning abilities as you aim to stay one step ahead of the invading grock. This unique action tower defence Nintendo 3DS game will be available to download via the Nintendo eShop today.
Dillon’s adventure takes place during the day, dusk and night, with different challenges and tasks to complete. During the daytime while there are no grock around, build static defences around each village including watch towers and gun towers, and collect as many scruffles, a turnip-like vegetable, in order to increase the number of scrogs in the village. Make the most of the daytime by installing weapons in the gun towers and fortifying the village gates as you install the last line of defence before dusk.
