Sanctum 2 is a really well done tower defense that's also a first person shooter. I always thought it was underrated.
I'll caveat this with I think a lot of games mix genres so you might even want to narrow it down a bit. (For example Ghost Recon: Wildlands is a coop, open world, action, adventure, stealth, and a modern military third person shooter.)
But I'll try and give some more noticablely mixed ones:
-
Doki Doki Literature Club (Don't look anything up just play it, don't worry if it doesn't seem like something you'd usually enjoy)
-
Natural Selection 2 (Space Marines vs aliens pvp fps with commanders playing a rts match)
-
Superhot (A fps with evading bullets offering a puzzle-like element)
I love Natural Selection 2! Really glad that an FPS-RTS game has been able to make it and stay around. I still hold out hope for another FPS-RTS game to make it big. There have been a couple/several that have made it to market but most of them are not finished or died in early access development sadly.
One other game that I think a lot of people overlooked as being one was Battlefield 4 + Hardline. Which had their own commander modes. Last I checked 4 still had community servers running, might even have more players that NS2 still.
Battle Feild 4 seemed like a lot of fun. I remember playing BF 1942 and BF2 on my brother's way back in the day.
Some time ago, I forbade myself from buying any EA games or services. So I've missed out on a few awesome games but have missed a hell of a lot of shitty released games, because of my unbroken rule.
Are you asking for game recommendations or a jam prompt?
I'm asking for game suggestions.
The video game market fascinates me. Every quarter of a year, there are what feels like hundreds of video games that come out. It's baffling and frustrating the amount of video games that come out but tend to party make a 'splash' in the video game industry market. Especially those who take creative risks and don't get much coverage. Hence why I asked the question. =)
I'm guessing recommendations not prompts.
Especially since the title says ".. video games totry"
I don't recall it initially saying that it might have been edited to improve clarity.
