Showdown in the post-apocalyptic frontier! As a team, defend a post-apocalyptic wild west from an invasion of transforming rock monsters alongside your Mii character, Dillon the armadillo, and his squirrel engineer, Russ. Recruit hired gunners to back you up in battle, and then roll into fights and high-speed chases and take down waves of enemies as Dillon—the "Red Flash" himself! Eighty years ago, a cataclysmic event devastated the world. Holed up in "The City" and outlying frontier towns, no survivor is safe now that a mysterious ship has unleashed an army of supercharged monsters. So, prepare for battle: gather resources by helping local businesses and winning races. Then stock up, man the towers, and strengthen barricades to protect each village's livestock! Discover new strategies to take out over 30 different types of enemies: some swim, some dig, some are electrified, poisonous, armored—even flying. Monsters transform into wheeled forms, racing into action-packed, high-speed chases!

Critic Reviews
FNintendo
By Diogo CaeiroDillon's Dead-Heat Breakers brings the Dillon series back to the 3DS in a game that builds on its predecessors' legacy to bring an experience that has improved in many ways, thanks to its attractive visuals and control scheme. Where Dead-Heat Breakers disappoints is on its fun factor, beyond shorter gaming sessions the game quickly becomes too repetitive and tiresome for its players, aggravated by a price tag that is very difficult to justify.
We Got This Covered
By Jordan HurstThis third entry in the series, Dillon's Dead-Heat Breakers, is at best woefully insubstantial and at worst torturously protracted.
GameMAG
By ShibitoDillon's Dead-Heat Breakers is an interesting project that skillfully combines the charm of cartoon Nintendo exclusives with stern post-apocalypse western setting. The only problem is that each of the gameplay elements is clearly lacking depth, and sometimes game feels too simple.
Critical Hit
By Darryn BonthuysDillon's Dead-Heat Breakers doesn't stray too far from the established formula of the previous entries but it still manages to provide a fast-paced take on the tower defense genre. It's unfortunately marred by some repetitive gameplay sections but it's still a blast to play in the end.
ZTGD
By Anthony MannMy hope is that those who still turn their 3DS on give this one a really good look, especially if they enjoyed previous games in the series, as it's a unique experience that only Nintendo offers.
