2. STB Introduction In Symbian Tower Battles, the player buys defensive towers on the battlefield with the money given. Critters crawl from the top of the screen when the player is ready to defend him- or herself. By killing the critters, the player receives money, with which to purchase new towers and upgrade the existing ones. If 20 critters make it through the player’s defenses, the player has lost. The player wins when all the attack waves have been neutralized.

STB On The Market STB is a challenging and captivating game, which, apart from the casual gamer, will definitely also attract people who seek a break from the mediocrity with a more versatile gaming experience.
