System Defender is a mini-game in Club Penguin, stylized after the tower defense genre, that is only accessible through the EPF Command Room. Until Spy Drills was released, this was the only minigame that can only be played by EPF agents (not counting Field-Ops). In System Defender, you have to stop the enemies from getting into the system. System Defender was created to stop bots from getting into the EPF system. Instead of having to check the game yourself for new updates, the player can check the EPF Spy Phone Messages section for any info about the game for new Advanced Elite Programs. There has not been a new level since 2011, it is unlikely there are any more for the future.

Gameplay

In the game there are three types of cannons. There are reds, that shoot fast; oranges, that have a long range; and purples, that have more damage. When cannons are placed into sockets, they have the ability to destroy bugs. Each cannon type can be upgraded to three levels.
There are basically 2 types of enemies: bugs and bosses. Bugs have less life than bosses, but they still have the ability to damage the system. These 2 types of bugs are the colors red, orange and purple. See the gallery below.
If a certain number of bugs hit the core, the game ends.
There are currently 6 levels: the Computer Bugs, Herbert, Klutzy, the Test Bots, the Ultimate Proto-Bot 10000 and Track Herbert.

-*There is a level where you have to defeat the Ultimate Protobot. It is a robot that was destroyed in 2008, and was rebuilt by Herbert P. Bear. He will send lots of waves of bots. Try upgrading each cannon to the most, which causes the cannons to be stronger and make more shots, making it easier to defeat bots.
