About this game

One core. Endless swarm. 67 upgrades that death can't take back.

⚡ 25 PERKS EVERY RUN
Drafted from 61, finished on 1 of 14 Ultimates. No two runs build the same core.

🌍 7 SECTORS THAT REWRITE THE RULES
THE SHOALS drowns you in 2.5x enemies. Clear one, keep its passive forever.

🗣️ YOUR CORE HAS AN ATTITUDE
It watches how you build. Aggressive, protective, curious — it notices, and it has opinions about all of them. Treat it well and it warms to you. Neglect it and it turns cold. It remembers across every run and every Rebirth, and when it's in a mood, your stats feel it.

🎖️ THE PILOT
Six augments to raise: SYNC, PLATING, REFLEX, FOCUS, BULWARK, RESONANCE. Eight ranks from CADET to SINGULARITY — and you only climb by lifting all six together.

📴 PLAYS OFFLINE. NEVER LOSES YOUR RUN.
Quit mid-wave. Come back whenever. CONTINUE drops you back on the exact same wave, same perks, same upgrades. Plane, tunnel, dead zone — it just runs.

💤 8 HOURS OF SCRAP WHILE YOU SLEEP

☠️ WEEKLY RAID BOSS · MON–FRI
Workshop stats only. No perks, no luck. Pure build strength. It gets harder every time you knock it down, and the whole week's damage feeds a global board.

💀 BOSS RUSH · SAT–SUN
Only bosses. No mercy.

🔄 LIVE GLOBAL EVENTS
They rotate every few days and change how the whole game plays. Everyone is in the same
one at the same time. You'll know when one lands.

♾️ REBIRTH
Trade your capped upgrades for permanent multipliers and higher ceilings on everything. Keep your Scrap, your Core Fragments and your Rebirth Perks. Then climb it again — harder,
further, faster.

📺 NO BANNER ADS. NO INTERSTITIALS.
Nothing ever interrupts a run. Rewarded videos only, and only if you tap them.

74 achievements · 9 global leaderboards · Cloud save · Core skins · Portrait, one-handed

Hold the line, Commander.
You don't place towers. You ARE the tower. Endless waves, zero banner ads.
