Defend the Highlands combines the genres of Tower Defence, Real Time Strategy, and Scotland. The player will have to build defences, recruit Scotsmen and manage their porridge stockpile as they fight off the British invasion of Scotland.
The player will control a band of Scotsmen, led by the short, hairy and nationalistic pub owner Alfredo. Making use of traditional Scottish weaponry, such as golf clubs and haggis catapults, the band of Scotsmen must defend locations around Scotland, Wales and England, as they defend their homeland, and then take the fight to the enemy.
After a year of waiting, true Scotsmen around the world (and anyone else for that matter) can now throw bowls of porridge and whisky bottles at their English, Irish and Welsh neighbors from the comfort of their computers.
Defend the Highlands gives players the opportunity to take command of the Scottish clans as they rise up and throw the inferior British folk out of their lands. Players will have to recruit Scotsmen, harvest oats, and use traditional Scottish weaponry, such as the porridge cannon and bagpipe artillery.
Defend the Highlands is available on Steam for $9.99, but for the first week, we're offering a discounted price of $8.49.
We are currently in early access, but would like to note that the game is feature complete, and fully playable. During the early access phase, we invite players to give us feedback on the balancing and overall polish of the game. With your help, we can make the porridge just right.
