Krinkle Krusher is a tower defense video game developed by Brazilian game studio Ilusis Interactive Graphics. The game was released on April 7, 2015 for PlayStation Vita, PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 platforms.[1][2][3][4] In the game you must defend your kingdom from the twisted and hungry creatures called Krinkles. The player takes the role of a magic glove capable of casting elemental spells on the field by using gestures (in PSVita) or different buttons combinations (PS3 and PS4).

The wicked krinkles comes at various types, some capable of absorbing your spells or move in some unpredictable ways that require specific strategies and spells combinations. Each new spell, item and environment adds new gameplay elements and you need to think quick how to deal with the Krinkles squads that marching relentless into your defenses. During your journey you will learn how to upgrade your magic rings and make your spells even more devastating.[5][6]

The gameplay is more action oriented as the player must continuously cast the spells as traps to contain the hordes of krinkles, instead of creating towers. There are still strategic elements by the elemental spell types and combinations. The enemies react differently to each element and the type of ground where it is cast may change the spell effects.

According to the studio the game was inspired by elements from the games Plants vs. Zombies, Orcs Must Die! and Fat Wizard.[7]

The game is one of the few Brazilian made games for console to be released in 2015,[8][9] and should be the first Brazilian game to be released on PS4 system.[10]
