A rock-solid combination of deep strategy, rock-rolling action, and captivating art and music from throughout history!

Two castles stand opposed, bridged by an uneven, narrow pathway. One is yours, and you're quite fond of it. See how the parapets catch the sunlight ever so stylishly? The other is your enemy's; they're a jerk, and their crappy crenellations are driving down your property values. Also, their castle sucks, justification enough to try crush it using an enormous rolling stone. Unfortunately, they'll have a chance to plan and build up some security, doing everything they can to derail your razing rock. Get through their defences and you're one step closer to crushing their unsightly tower (see also: their hopes and dreams). But don't take your turn for granite. Once your turn is over, your opponent's begins...

A Rolling Stone Gathers No Depth

7.0
It was crisp, electric night in late 1982. Probably. Amidst the sweat and spittle of an all-night recording session, seminal rock producer Mutt Lange stepped up to a microphone and uttered the phrase “Gunter gleiben glauben globen.” Nonsense, some would claim… but others would find meaning within the gibberish and the take was eventually used to intro Def Leppard’s tour de force track “Rock of Ages.”

7.5
A fun and bizarre strategy game.

8.0
Rock of Ages is as belligerently weird a game as you're ever likely to play, but by all means, you absolutely should play it.

6.0
Rock of Ages has a delightfully goofy concept and offers some destructive fun, but it's hampered by its weak defense elements.

9.0
This bizarre tower defense/bowling/action game from Atlus and Ace Team both rocks <em>and</em> rolls.
