Garden Gnome Carnage

The premise of this game is quite simple and crazy. You "control" a building with a garden gnome who is constantly flailing around by what I would call a magic bungie cord. Soldiers are constantly advancing on either side of your building to climb up and claim it. Sounds crazy doesn't it? Indeed it is.

You need to move the building left and right to knock the soldiers off of it while attempting to let friendly characters, like a black cat labeled "friend", access to your building.

While flailing about the gnome is able to remove bricks from his building and drop them on the soldiers to keep more of them at bay. Meanwhile if one is not careful the airspace above and around your building can become (over)populated with helicopters that from time to time produce paratroopers who attempt to land on your precious brick tower.
The helicopters can be dispatched by this seemingly indestructible gnome as well. Earning a certain number of points rewards you with airstrikes which can sometimes trigger completely unrelated mini-games.

All in all this game is a fun 5-10 minutes distraction and has a wonderful sense of humor.

Interesting little game

This game is pretty funny, you swing a garden gnome around the screen and trow explosive bricks at soldiers. You also have friends that can help you protect your building like a cat that gives you more powerful bricks and a princess that shoots rockets down at enemies.

Garden Gnome Carnage has colorful pixelated graphics and some very funny sound effects.

It is a weird game and its not for everyone. You have to be pretty open minded and have a good sense of humor to fully appreciate this game.

(There is now way a game of this quality is worth 4/10 ...just sayin' )

Gnome Garden Carnage

You like your gnome,they want to get your gnome.You'll see this sentence in tutorial opening of the game which I think is a sentence that sums up the game well.You need to defend your gnome from capture by preventing "them" from getting to the roof of your mobile brick home,where,your gnome resides.They will try by ground and by air:climbing the sides and trying to land a helicopter on the roof to get to your gnome.Defend your gnome by flinging him,grabbing explosive bricks off the foundation of the house and throwing them at "them".Bricks do run out but can be replenish by getting a cat(friendly) on your roof.The game gives you odd power-ups and out-weapons.Such as an air-strike,self destruct and a 8bit mini game where you guide a princess toward the top your brick house. Successfully completing the mini game will grant you explosive gold bricks for your house foundation, an extra gnome and the princess shooting crystal bricks at your enemy for a short period of time.The game is fun little diversion and for 80 ms points it's a good buy.
