Sanctum, third place for my 2011 Game of the Year picks here at Levelsave.com (I’ve been here coming up on two years already?) by Coffee Stain Studios was a beautifully executed cross-genre experience. There has been some news of Sanctum 2 being released to both PC and console platforms, and I’ve gotten my hands on a preview build of the game. This is a game wherein you create a maze and place turrets to kill creeps, and then enter first person mode in order to...

In my opinion, Orcs Must Die! was a flawless game. Everything they set out to do, they did excellently. Fun, original, challenging, funny. Which is just what makes it such a difficult act to follow. Needless to say, my expectations for this game were very high, and yet Orcs Must Die! 2 actually manages to improve on the original.

From the video we can see multiple routes in each scenario and an expansive list of...

Intelligent extraterrestrial life exists, and it’s all trying to kill you. Defend humanity’s planets and installations with deadly satellites, and teach the alien scum not to mess with Earth. Unstoppable Gorg takes the tried and true tower defense formula and adds some unique twists. Tower build slots are arranged in orbits around a central point the player must defend, while hostile alien ships approach on multiple winding paths (conveniently marked with dotted...
Some of you may know that Sanctum was one of my picks for Game of the Year, so I am definitely excited to announce that one of my favourite genre-defying Tower Defense / First Person Shooters for the PC has a sequel on the horizon. Developers Coffee Stain Studios, have signed on with Reverb Publishing to create Sanctum 2. Princes among recent indie developers, Coffee Stain has produced one of last year’s best multiplayer experiences. Reverb, being always on the...
