Sanctum (and its sequel Sanctum 2)
It’s a tower defense where you also have guns and go fight alongside your towers as a first person shooter.
Both Sanctum and Sanctum 2 are worth playing and have slightly different vibes. Sanctum 1 is simpler while Sanctum 2 has more complex build crafting. Also Sanctum uses a square grid while Sanctum 2 uses a hexagonal grid, and Sanctum 2 has some tweaked enemy mechanics, including enemies that target destroy the towers or killing the players over just going for the core. I think Sanctum 2 tries to make the player feel more important instead of the towers being the main focus.
Damn, I own this game, its worth boosting so it sucks I had to downvote xD
