Sanctum, developed by Swedish team Coffee Stain Studios, is a fast-paced action game that uniquely combines first-person shooter action with the classic tower defence gameplay. The player takes the role as Skye, an elite solder sent out to protect her futuristic home town, Elysion One, from hordes of mysterious alien creatures.
To succeed, players have to construct and upgrade defensive structures. What makes Sanctum unique from other tower defence games is that when the havoc starts, players jump right into the action with their own weapons and play a key role in the defence. Sanctum offers multiplayer features for up to 4 players.
The international press called Sanctum “a very good, highly flexible game” (GamePro – rating 80/100), “tricky and exciting” (PC Gamer) and “definitely worth checking out” for fans of tower defense and FPS mechanics (Destructoid).
