Missile Defense

Tap the sky to detonate defensive explosions and catch incoming missiles before they reach your cities.

How to play

Four cities sit at the bottom of the screen. Missiles streak in from above, each heading for one of the cities. Tap anywhere on the sky and a defense missile launches from your central battery to that point, exploding briefly in a circle.

Any incoming missile inside the explosion radius is destroyed for +1. There's a short cooldown between defense launches, so you can't spam — pick your tap points carefully to catch multiple missiles in one blast.

Missiles get faster and arrive more often the longer you survive. Lose a city every time a missile reaches the bottom. When all four cities are gone, the run ends. Score is the total missiles intercepted.

Tips & strategy

Lead the missile, don't chase it. Defense missiles take time to reach where you tapped, and incoming missiles keep falling. Tap where the missile will be by the time your explosion arrives, not where it is when you tap. The taller the incoming, the further ahead you need to lead — that's the single biggest skill in the game.

Clusters are worth waiting for. A wide explosion catches everything inside its radius, so two missiles falling close together count for +2 from a single tap. When you see a cluster forming, hold your tap and let them get a little closer together rather than blasting the first one alone — the cooldown means you literally cannot fire fast enough to deal with each one individually past score 30.

Protect the surviving cities, not the lost ones. Once a city is gone it's gone, and there's no bonus for spreading defense evenly. Stack your taps over whichever cluster of cities is still standing and let the corners burn if you have to. A run that keeps two cities alive for an extra 30 seconds scores more than one that desperately tries to save all four and ends in chaos at score 15.
