Defend The Caravan

Defend The Caravan was one of those straightforward Flash games you'd find in the late 2000s. It didn't try to be anything more than a quick, satisfying way to pass some time. You just loaded it up in your browser and got straight into the action.

You control a cursor, essentially your aim, clicking on waves of incoming enemies before they can reach a line of carts moving across the screen. Your main job is to protect that caravan for as long as possible. You start with a basic weapon, but you earn cash from defeated foes to buy upgrades and unlock new guns, switching between them with number keys. The pace is relentless; the enemies come faster and from different angles, forcing you to manage your targeting and purchases quickly. It feels like a constant, hectic scramble to keep up.
