All you do is weave the enemies back and forth, zig zagging past barriers as they get pummelled by arrows and traps. They will path around the entire map to get around a wall, as long as there is 1 opening in the wall somewhere.

Orcs Must Die! 2 is preparing for release late next month
Robot Entertainment has announced that Orcs Must Die! 2 will be releasing on July 30, 2012. That's fairly soon, which ought to be cause for celebration. If you're unsure why people generally seem to dig the original, there's plenty of time left to seek it out. The sequel's big selling point is the introduction of two-person cooperative play, while the rest of the updates seem to revolve around delivering more of everything. Additionally, the upgrade system has been revamped. While that might not sound like a lot, it's certainly enough to satisfy my wish list. I hadn't really thought about it until now, but this is probably one of my most anticipated games of the year. Orcs Must Die! was immensely satisfying, even if I did eventually start to feel bad about the atrocities I was committing. The mere mention of co-op play in the sequel has me counting the days until launch. Did you know? You can now get daily or weekly email notifications when humans reply to your comments.
Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)The first one was alot of fun. But i will want to know more about the co-op stuff before i get it. Will some stages demand it or is it wholey optional. The story campaign does single-player and co-op according to the official site, so you should be good, Themuad. I wasn't impressed by the demo for the original, it seemed really bland compared to Dungeon Defenders and Sanctum. Didn't stop me from picking it up on sale, though :x Guess it's time to give it a shot, everyone seems to like it a lot. The thing about OMD is that the tactics to beat it are straight up standard. AFter dozens of tower defense games of the same ilk, it is time for an evolution in this type.
All you do is weave the enemies back and forth, zig zagging past barriers as they get pummelled by arrows and traps. They will path around the entire map to get around a wall, as long as there is 1 opening in the wall somewhere. Just beat Orcs must die. It was very good, I'd rate it an 8/10, but Dungeon Defenders is still better. It just has more depth and replay value. Plus co-op, loot, experience points, pets etc etc etc... 12:15 PM on 05.22.2013 Microsoft might have a 1 vs. 100-style game for Xbox One1 vs. 100 for Xbox 360 was a delight, plain and simple.
