Giant creatures threaten our cities – and only you can stop them in Kaiju Attack! In this brilliant mix of board-game-style strategy and match-3 puzzles, enormous bears and marauding robots wreak havoc across your game grid. Match tiles to upgrade tanks and planes and deploy them in fierce counterattacks. Good luck, commander!

What we love: The menagerie of terrifying-yet-adorable behemoths – and the super-weapons you unlock to fight them. Giant slime monster Poluto about to conquer your country? Launch the Hand of God orbiting cannon and wave “goo-bye!” to that sticky fiend!

Quick tip: Upgrade a building tile to level 5 and it’ll transform into a tower that blasts kaiju with a devastating energy weapon. It’s tricky to do, but the results are worth it.

Meet the creator: While crafting Kaiju Attack, the team at Game Stew immersed themselves in giant monsters and aliens – rewatching everything from Godzilla movies and the Evangelion series to Ray Harryhausen stop-motion classics. The studio’s other retro-style games include Adventure Pinball and the Tower of Fortune series.
