## What is Hive Busters?

Drop in. Build up. Bust the hives.

Hive Busters is a fast arcade base-defense roguelite. Your drone crash-lands in an infested space station: a maze of rooms and corridors hiding three bug hives. Build an outpost, hold the line through waves of swarming bots, then push out through the fog to crash the hives before the Brood Queens wake.

• DAILY RUN: one seeded map for everyone, every day. Compare scores on the Game Center leaderboards.
• FREE PLAY: endless random stations.
• BUILD: bunkers, turrets, depots, solar pylons, barricades and hidden mine pads. Upgrade the outpost's guns, armor and sensors.
• BUDDIES: a Harvester that mines gems, a Cryo drone that slows the swarm and a Gunner that escorts you.
• EMERGENCE HOLES: the floor cracks open mid-wave. Plug them before they flood your base.
• FOG OF WAR: explore room by room. You can only shoot what you can see.
• FINALE: fill the SWARM bar and a Brood Queen erupts from every hive still standing. Bust hives early to make the last fight easier.

Clean isometric look, punchy procedural sound, haptics, and controls built for one thumb each side in landscape.

Free to play with ads. Hive Busters Pro (one-time purchase) removes ads and unlocks the Royal Buster gold skin.
