What is Alien Swarm?
Alien Swarm is a cooperative top-down shooter game that tasks players with navigating through infested environments and eliminating enemy swarms. Leveraging a team-based approach, up to four players must strategically utilize a variety of specialized classes and weaponry to overcome increasingly challenging scenarios. The game's procedurally generated levels and dynamic enemy movements create a uniquely unpredictable experience, requiring close coordination and adaptability from the squad. Developed by the original modding team and released as a free title by Valve Corporation, Alien Swarm offers a refined and accessible take on the shoot-em-up genre, blending intense combat with elements of tactical planning and survival
