Spin one ring of satellites to defend a lone space habitat. Torus Keep is a roguelike tower defense game you play with one finger: drag to aim, pick an upgrade between waves, and decide when to cash out. No energy timers. No loot boxes. No premium currency. Everything that changes how you play can be earned by playing, and it plays offline. SHORT RUNS, REAL DECISIONS • Each sortie is seven stages ending in a boss. Between stages, choose your route: an elite stage for more salvage, a supply cache, a repair dock, or Recall to bank everything you carried. • Pick one of three upgrades as you go: a new satellite, a power-up for one you have, or a boost for the whole ring. • Breach, and you still keep 60% of your salvage. Clear a sector, and carry your whole build into the next one. 12 SATELLITES, EACH WITH A JOB • Chain lightning through swarms, melt bosses with a beam that grows, root the fast ones, lay minefields as you spin, or store your spin in a Flywheel for one huge shot. • Choose four per sortie and set each one's aim: Most urgent, Toughest or Fastest. • At Mastery 10 every satellite earns a named signature Refinement: Hammer Rounds, Superconductor, Reaper, Twin Flywheel and eight more. • Test flight: fly a satellite you don't own yet for one free sortie, at Mastery 10. PERMANENT PROGRESS, NO WAITING • Spend salvage on hull plating, cooling, extra sockets and Mastery. Every upgrade is instant. • Three sectors, six enemy types and two bosses, then the Long Watch: an endless mode with a checkpoint every five waves. • Hazard tiers: replay any cleared sector at up to 10 harder tiers, each with its own modifier and more salvage. • Reclaimers gather salvage while you're away. • Daily Orders that never expire, a Weekly Chart and the 30-step Keeper's Log. • Game Center: 25 achievements and 3 leaderboards, one of them weekly. PLAY YOUR WAY • Pause any time, 1×, 1.5× or 2× speed, hold-to-spin buttons instead of dragging, high-contrast outlines, Reduce Motion support. • Quit mid-sortie and pick up exactly where you left off. • No account to make. The game plays offline; only Game Center and the optional ads need a connection. • iPad: a wide Command Deck in landscape, with keyboard controls. FAIR BY DESIGN • Everything that changes how you play can be earned by playing. Paid looks are paint only, and plenty of looks are earned free. • Nothing random is for sale: no loot boxes, no gacha. • Optional purchases: the Founders Pack, cosmetic looks (the Aurora set, two finish sets and the Keeper's Log Supporter lane), satellites you'd like sooner, No ads, and salvage packs: salvage you'd earn by playing, sooner, at the same rate in every pack. • Ads are optional rewarded videos, only when you choose one: after a sortie for +50% of the salvage you banked, after a breach to retry with your build, or to double a Reclaimers' haul. Never during a sortie, never forced. No ads claims every one of those rewards with a tap instead. ## Pricing and in-app purchases Base price: Free. **One-time purchases** | Purchase | Price | Type | | --- | --- | --- | | Salvage Crate | $0.99 | one-time | | Salvage Container | $2.99 | one-time | | Salvage Freighter | $4.99 | one-time | | Keeper's Log: Supporter lane | $4.99 | one-time | | Finish set: Abyssal | $2.99 | one-time | | Finish set: Prism | $2.99 | one-time | | Pruner | $2.99 | one-time | | Pollinator | $1.99 | one-time | | Tender Bay | $2.99 | one-time | | Spore Layer | $2.99 | one-time | ## Is Torus Keep safe?

It's the old "Bonus without ads" under a clearer name, so if you own it, you have it. • More optional rewards: the sortie bonus (+50% of the salvage you banked) is offered every other sortie, up to 5 a day, and you can double a Reclaimers' haul up to twice a day. Every ad is still your choice and never during a sortie. • Salvage packs in the Shop after your first Sector 1 clear: the Crate, the Container and the Freighter, all at the same rate. Salvage you'd earn by playing, sooner, and it never expires. • Purchases can now start from the App Store page. Improvements • Reduce Motion stops the socket pulse and the tutorial hand's swing. • Clearer outlines on stage pips and meters for high-contrast settings. • On shorter screens (iPhone SE, iPhone Duo) a pick no longer covers the top bar. • The retry ad is offered only after your first Sector 1 clear, like the sortie bonus. ### 1.3 — 2026-11-01 New • In-app events: Winter Watch (Dec 14 – Jan 3) and Spring Watch (Mar 15 – Apr 4) on a weekly Long Watch leaderboard, and Hazard Week (Jan 18–24), when Hazard sorties pay ×1.5 salvage. While one runs, Home shows it. • A weekly Long Watch leaderboard in Game Center, resetting every Monday from Nov 30. • Rate Torus Keep from Settings › About whenever you like. Fixes • iPhone Duo: the arena is centred on both displays, folded or unfolded. ### 1.2.1 — 2026-10-26 Fixes • Watch ad: if an ad hadn't loaded in time, tapping Watch ad failed straight away. It now tries again, and says plainly when no ad is available. • A retry paid for with an ad now waits until you close the ad, instead of starting behind it. • The Game Center button no longer covers the title on the home screen. ### 1.2 — 2026-10-26 Hazard tiers, Daily Orders, Game Center and a fresh look NEW • Hazard tiers: replay a sector you've cleared at up to 10 harder tiers, each with more salvage. • Daily Orders: three small goals at a time, and a stamp on the Weekly Chart for each one you finish. • The Keeper's Log: 30 steps of rewards for the progress you make. • Looks: ring trims, dome patterns and satellite finishes. Paint only. Mastery 10, 20 and 30 each earn a finish. Two finish sets and the Keeper's Log Supporter lane are optional purchases. • Test flights: try a Bay satellite at Mastery 10 in your next sortie. • Game Center: 25 achievements and two leaderboards. • Optional notifications when your Reclaimers are full or new Daily Orders are in. Off unless you turn them on. BETTER • New shot effects for every satellite, enemy hits and break-ups, and a backdrop for each sector. • A smoother difficulty curve. After a run of hard breaches, a Supply drop gives you extra picks, and the summary shows how close you came. • Smoother frame rate on iPhone, and reworked sound. • Clearer upgrade text, and power-up picks say which satellite they're for. ### 1.0 — 2026-10-25 No release notes. ## More apps by Jason Fraser - [RoutineArc: Schedule Planner](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/routinearc-schedule-planner/id6806396030) - [HOLD: Timer & Countdown](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/hold-timer-and-countdown/id6811352312) - [Family Recipe Book: MealStash](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/family-recipe-book-mealstash/id6813066453) - [Dice Gauntlet: Roguelike RPG](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/dice-gauntlet-roguelike-rpg/id6816294136) - [Bodykeep: Workout & Macro Log](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/bodykeep-workout-and-macro-log/id6818340055) All apps by Jason Fraser: https://appshunter.io/developer/6806396032 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
