I missed the hype when this came out but I can see it. Would even be dope to revive.
Sanctum — старенькая, но очень увлекательная игра. Порадовала меня отличной атмосферой, интересной задумкой и приятным сочетанием шутера и tower defense. Особенно хорошо играется в кооперативе с другом. Жаль, что контента здесь не так много — хотелось бы провести в игре ещё хотя бы десяток часов. Но даже несмотря на это, впечатления остались положительными. Оценка: 7/10 (РУС)

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

really fun, simple tower defense.
I remember loving this back around the time when it came out, but I don't think it's aged well. Very shallow gameplay with lots of overlapping simple bleepy-bloopy sound effects.
Ещё одна мёртвая TD от первого лица. Очень не понравился звук атаки пушек и юниты которых должен только ты убить. Слишком большая роль персонажа, сделать пассивный проход не получится!!
I don't feel like this has aged well and when I compare the tower defense to games like Defense Grid 2 it really doesn't hit for me. Playing in the world with the towers seems like a fun gimmick but I think it hurts more than helps. Being on the ground floor means you don't have a good view of the play field (as compared to standard top-down view), the enemies can bump and jostle you, your towers can get in your way, they add some enemies that directly attack you to cause you problems at some point. I don't feel like they make it clear exactly how you can improve your setup and some of the towers are very bad. Example of a terrible tower: The mortar seems like it's meant to be the defacto AoE (it's in the default loadout), however, it's very slow, long range, and I'm pretty sure it can't see past other towers; this is a tower type that you'd usually throw way back in the distance where you have some blank area and let help keep up the DPS on groups but here the primary swarm enemies basically aren't visible to anything that isn't directly along the path. I think being on the ground floor, the ragdolls blocking your view, and perhaps the UI make it hard to gauge exactly how well your towers are doing and figure out what is really effective. I'm sure it's possible to figure out the strategies but this feels like it makes it less intuitive and less fun. There are a few other pain points, like the checkpoint system feeling slow (no instant rewind like DG2), if you lose it likes to do an animation and a "You Lose" joke before letting you rewind or restart and get back in the game. If you get this for free or it is cheap, then sure, give it a try, but otherwise I'd put this as an interesting historical game more than a classic or evergreen.
Just NO! Quote: "Remember Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, the Life. Probably worth a google?"
Simple and fun tower defense game
[h1] Tower defense with FPS. Great levels, where you build path for enemies to follow. More and more monsters incoming with each wave and try to overrun your core. In the meantime blaze your guns to keep them away. A lot of fun for coop. Unique and original. Still a great game! [/h1]
A fun twist of tower defense and first person shooter with satisfying level ups and level progression. Maybe a little dated for today but still fun to play nonetheless.
