Overview
Description

Apox merges real‑time strategy fundamentals with first‑person shooter mechanics, letting you crouch, prone, switch weapons, and loot corpses while commanding bases and resources. Soldiers have limited ammo, but share it seamlessly, and can be placed into vehicles to craft custom unit designs. The game supports single‑player, multiplayer, and co‑operative modes, offering strategic site control, resource management, and sci‑fi combat on Linux and PC platforms.

Iron Grip: Warlord reinvents tower defense by putting you directly in the fight. As a first‑person shooter you defend Atelia against relentless AI hordes, building and upgrading towers while blasting enemies yourself. Play solo, team up with friends, or dive into co‑op battles across diverse maps, each demanding tactical placement and sharp shooting to survive the onslaught.
