Overview: Anomaly: Warzone Earth HD is a reverse tower defense.
20120801:
I started out playing Anomaly: Warzone Earth HD on my new phone. It was fun and I wanted to get some screenshots and so I ran Anomaly: Warzone Earth on my PC. I was surprised to learn, however, that the two versions follow a similar story and idea, but the actual game play and mechanics differ.
Setup: Playing on a Samsung Galaxy S3.*
Tip: I didn't know this until playing the PC version, but you can return to tactical view in the Android version and change the route of your units as often as you like. This allows you to go around and defeat, should you desire, more enemy units.
*I learned that I can take a screenshot on my phone by swiping the side of my hand from left to right across the screen. I later learned that I could also take a screenshot by simultaneously holding down the Home Screen button and the Power On/Off button.

Comparison of Anomaly: Warzone Earth HD (Android) and Anomaly: Warzone Earth (PC):
1) Using abilities:
Android: Deploy and collect abilities with the touch-screen.
PC: Use the commander to physically go to a location in order to collect and deploy abilities.
2) Gameplay:
Android: Simple and easy to learn. Feels fluid.
PC: Complex and intricate, but more fun. For example, in the PC version, sometimes a disaster would occur that destroy the path and I would have to react and change the path.
3) Graphics: The PC version has better graphics, hands down.

Today I played the PC version some more and I may have previously found the game mechanics for the Android version "easier to learn and more fluid than those for the PC version" simply because I played it first. When getting back into the PC version today, I didn't even have to replay Mission 01, 02, or 03 to remember how to play. In other words, the game mechanics for the PC version are also simple and intuitive.
