Last Stand is a Twin-Stick Arena Survival Shooter, in which you pilot a ship through space while alien ships appear to destroy you. You have a left joystick for movement, and a right one for aiming/automatic firing. More enemies will appear in each wave, and you can differentiate between three types: small but fast (low health, low damage), medium (moderate speed, health, and damage), and large and slow (high health, high damage). On the screen, you can see the wave you're in and how many enemies you've destroyed so far. The objective of the game is to survive as long as possible.
Additionally, there's a STATS section that tracks the total number of waves you've survived and the total number of enemies you've destroyed across all your matches, along with a Top 5 list of your best matches (based on rounds survived and enemies defeated). These two statistics also serve as in-game currency in a STORE where you can unlock new skins for your ship, your shot, and your explosion.
