Besides Medal of Honor (2010) and Warfighter it's one of the few games that actually has the balls to feature Muslim terrorists as an enemy faction

If you can stomach the admittedly trashy, attention-seeking premise, you'll find that IS Defense is in reality, a fairly entertaining arcade shooting gallery. Don't hold it to the standards of a 100 hour long epic adventure; it's much more comparable to those pick up and play arcade, browser and mobile games that can easily be squeezed into a busy day. If you need a time killer that'll hold you over when you need a quick rush of digital violence, then you'll likely enjoy this offering. Recommended.

A few hours of mindless shooting fun for few bucks. Especially good deal during a sale. Nothing ground breaking but worth it imo.

Played this when it first came out then moved on. But have just revisited it for a bit of fun & had forgotten just how good it is. So if you fancy a good old shoot 'em up that builds with intensity & difficulty then give this a go. I'll be going back more often from now on.
