Games Compilations Top-down shooters

Top-down shooters

Initially, the idea of creating a top-down shooter seemed like a crazy experiment. It’s unrealistic and looks strange, but the very first titles with such a camera mounted on top turned out to be quite fun.

Now Top-Down shooters are a separate genre of shooters, in which there are many popular and not so popular games. Games in this category also include isometric shooters.
