New ideas often seem few and far between in shooters, but Facture goes out of its way to be different. Amongst all the usual guns, rocket launchers, and bombs your most basic weapon is the Entrencher, which is able to instantly create two foot deep craters in the ground or raise up the earth by the same amount.

Naturally this comes in handy for getting around the game world--helping you reach inaccessible areas or tunnel under fences--and as a means to create cover for yourself or to take it away from your enemies. You even can throw special grenades that can cause the same effects at a distance.
