Sanctum

Building and crafting

Sanctum fuses tower defense with first-person shooting: you build mazes of turrets, then join the fight yourself against waves of aliens. Especially fun in co-op.

X-Morph: Defense

Tactical depth

X-Morph: Defense blends a top-down shooter with tower defense: you play the alien invader, placing towers while also fighting directly with your own ship against Earth's defenders.

Commando Jack

Building and crafting

A tower defense game where you build a maze of turrets and can also jump into them to blast alien invaders yourself. The over-the-top action hero gives it a tongue-in-cheek B-movie feel.

Spacejacked

Building and crafting

A frantic arcade tower-defense hybrid where you build turrets and shoot aliens yourself while juggling the defense of several rooms at once.

Armed to the Gears

Tactical depth

You pilot a heavily armed mech through cyberpunk and industrial zones, capturing and defending territory while building turrets and structures. It blends real-time action with light strategy.

Sanctum 2

Building and crafting

A blend of tower defense and first-person shooting where you design mazes of towers and walls, then grab your guns and fight the alien waves yourself. It shines in four-player co-op, rewarding both smart layouts and sharp aim.
