Beachside Picnic

!!! INCOMPLETE !!!

Congratulations, you have been elected mayor of an archipelago right as aliens started landing on the islands.

The aliens are disguising themselves as humans.

Don't let them into the main city.

Build checkpoints to check if the refugees fleeing the alien infested city are human. Those revealed to be of extraterrestrial origin are sent back.

Build drones to exterminate exposed aliens returning to the alien infested city, otherwise they will return disguised again.

Build blockades, if you need to delay the refugees. But beware, once the blockades are overrun, the fleeing masses will likely overrun checkpoints as well.

Unlike most tower defense games, you first need to reveal the mobs, then destroy them on their way back.
