  • Sci-fi setting

You pilot a mech in a hybrid of top-down shooter and tower defense, holding off hordes of alien zombies. You build mazes, upgrade weapons and skills, and protect your base.

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.

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.

Planetoid

Pure single-player experience

You construct physics-based facilities on a small planetoid to fend off enemies and protect the humanoids living there. It blends building, strategy and action in an indie sci-fi setting.

Super Sanctum TD

Tactical depth

A retro-styled tower defense where you build mazes and place towers to keep alien hordes away from the Core. Active abilities like Air Strike and Freeze add extra dynamism to the battles.
