Best Top Down Shooter Games
Initially, the idea of creating a top-down shooter seemed like a crazy experiment. It looks unrealistic and strange, however, the very first titles with such a fixed camera on top turned out to be quite fun.
Now, top-down shooters are a separate genre of shooters, which includes many popular and not-so-popular games. Isometric shooters also belong to this category of games.
