## What is Red Herd?

Choose your gates. Grow your army. Build your castle.

Red Herd, also known as Kızıl Sürü, is a crowd runner and battle game where each gate can change your army. Take your choices into battle, then return to your castle to collect resources and prepare for the next challenge.

EVERY GATE IS A DECISION
Drag left and right to choose your route. Recruit more soldiers through addition and multiplier gates while avoiding harmful gates and obstacles. Build your army with swordsmen, spearmen, archers, shield bearers, cavalry and mages.

100 LEVELS, 10 REGIONS
Advance through different regions and face a boss every tenth level. Read their attacks, time your movement and protect your formation. Return to completed levels to improve your results and earn more stars.

BUILD YOUR OWN CASTLE
Start with farms and sawmills, then unlock quarries and iron mines as you progress. Collect resources, upgrade buildings and train troops at the barracks. Hold back enemy waves in Defend Your Castle and capture outposts in Castle Raid.

DISCOVER 10 COMMANDERS
Begin your journey with Achilles. Defeat bosses to unlock Atalanta, Arthur, Mulan and other commanders. Compare weapons and armor, spend earned gold on equipment and choose your loadout.

PLAY AT YOUR OWN PACE
Core gameplay works offline and requires no account. Your progress is saved on your device. Switch between English and Turkish, and adjust sound and vibration in Settings.

Contains ads. Depending on age and privacy choices, banners may appear on result screens or interstitial ads between levels. Ads and content updates use an internet connection. There are no in-app purchases.

Choose your next gate. Lead your army to victory.
