## What is ThirstCraft?

Build your franchise. Train your squad. Destroy every enemy front office.

ThirstCraft is a real-time strategy battle game with a basketball soul. Pick one of six classes, drop onto a hand-painted arena, and out-build, out-recruit, and out-hustle your rivals.

SIX CLASSES, SIX PLAYSTYLES
- THE SYSTEM - disciplined, fundamentals-first ball. Strong defense, reliable squads.
- THE ELITES - big-market flash. Expensive stars that take over games.
- THE GRINDERS - hustle and heart. Swarm your enemies with relentless energy.
- VAMPIRE - rule the night with blood magic and winged terrors.
- ZOMBIE - an endless rotting horde that never gets tired.
- GHOST - spectral forces that drift through the chaos and chill the court.

MINE. BUILD. RECRUIT. WIN.
- Send scouts to mine cap space and harvest media hype
- Build your base: gyms, academies, courts, defensive schemes
- Upgrade your front office into an arena, then a superdome
- Research veteran precision and system defense at the academy
- Train shooters, slashers, lockdown defenders, rim protectors, and franchise duos

PLAY YOUR WAY
- Skirmish vs CPU across nine hand-painted arenas
- LIVE ONLINE MULTIPLAYER - up to six players: free-for-alls, 2v2 and 3v3 team battles
- CUSTOM MAPS - upload your own court art, lay out the battlefield, and share the map code with friends
- Claim your ladder name with a PIN - your rating follows you on any device
- Global chat, friends and direct messages, and a ranked ladder with five tiers

A real RTS, built for your phone: one-finger pan, tap-to-command, rally flags, and a command card designed for thumbs.

The city is watching. Take the crown.
