Smashing orcs and dissolving them to a pool of blood. That is what this game is all about where you have to defend your tower with the use of your iPhone. Sounds dull? Don’t conclude just yet. Just like most games we see today, the musical score normally pumps up the adrenaline for gamers and keeps them playing.

The key is to actually play the game. For now, we can say that it is a boring game to place on your iPhone or iPod Touch. But once you hear Karnivool’s “Set Fire to the Hive” music, everything may change in an instant. It pushes you to make sure that each orc you see on screen gets smashed into smithereens!

Aim for high scores and compare it with others all over the world or better yet try to achieve the highest score you can get by beating your own. It comes with the usual game modes: easy, orcslaught and black orc down.

The Pools of Blood game app is now available at the App Store and retails for $ 0.99.
