Trojan Guard

Trojan Guard 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, functional browser game. You loaded it up, and it got straight to the point.

You control a single, stationary turret at the bottom of the screen. Waves of blocky, geometric enemies descend from the top, and your job is to shoot them all before they reach your base. You aim and fire with your mouse, clicking on targets to eliminate them. The main objective is simply to survive as long as possible, with each wave bringing more numerous and sometimes faster enemies. The pacing is relentless; there's little downtime between assaults, which creates a constant pressure to keep clicking. It feels like a focused test of your reflexes and target prioritization under a steady, increasing strain.
