Yep, you read that right, multiple USPs on this one. The original Sanctum was a four-player co-op FPS Tower Defence. It’s worth noting that Level Up Labs’s lead developer Lars Doucet, is focal in the HaxeFlixel community, heavily involved in making that open-source game engine better, and often posts incredibly detailed and intelligent articles on his blog.

This newer version is a full engine rewrite from Air to HaxeFlixel and features updated HD graphics, and various fixes. However, it’s far easier to buy on Steam where the “DX” version is available. Technically, you can still buy Defenders Quest on their website, complete with the Adobe Air requirement and you can probably still mess about with it all and get it working. As you can imagine, this caused Linux no end of grief when Adobe announced its demise during development. Indeed the whole game feels like a Tower Defence meets RPG mix, allowing some customisation in each character and even the concept of character classes for your “towers”.ĭQ was released in 2012, originally using Adobe Air. I’m honestly trying my best to be articulate.ĭefender’s Quest: Valley of the Forgotten įrontiers might have taken a leaf out of Defenders Quest's book when it came to that leveling up mechanic, since Defenders Quest’s USP is levelling up your characters (which are also the “towers”) throughout the game. Check them out here: Kingdom Rush and Kingdom Rush Frontiers.

I love these games so much, I’ve made a few Youtube series about them. I consider them the pinnacle of the genre. Both games have wonderful sound, graphics and animations, inventive tower options, well structured learning curves, intuitive interfaces and keyboard shortcuts, huge Hero variety and, best of all, satisfying and superbly-balanced gameplay. Earlier “difficult” maps become significantly less challenging when you revisit with a powerful, leveled-up hero.īut I’m nitpicking. This is really engaging but, of course, balance suffers a little as a result. However, in Frontiers, a Hero’s experience is cumulative across maps, taking many runs to level up, awarding stars that can be spent on skills. In the original game, a Hero always starts the map at Level 1 and is usually Level 10 by the end waves of the same map, resetting back to Level 1 again on the next map. The Kingdom Rush franchise’s unique selling point (USP) is the use of Heroes that help on any given map. Only on Linux will your tactics win the day, not your grind.Īrguably, the first game is the better of the two. It’s on Linux that the sublime balance isn’t ruined by the introduction of gems for TNT or Freeze Crystals that you can spam into a wave to save the day.

Let’s get this out of the way - yes, these are on Android too but, given the horrific micro-transactions Ironhide implemented on that platform, I consider the Linux versions to be far superior. The following list is my personal take on the genre in order of excellence but any of the recommended list should be considered must-buys, if you like the genre. So I thought I’d give you all a list of some of the best titles out there, some honourable mentions, and outline a few of the titles I’ve yet to try in the hope that you’ll tell me why I should! Sure, I also love FPS games, but disappointments in that genre have been more than made up for by the abundance of TD games available with Linux support. Things quickly escalated when I moved to Linux exclusively in 2013. My fascination with them started with the Android game Sentinel 3 somewhere around 2010, then consolidated with Robo Defence a year later.
