The sun came back after a hundred years. Beneath it lies a vast desert, and the machines are waking up again. In Prototype Legend you ride out into the desert on an old bike. Collect scrap and fuel, build your own base, raise your walls. Every evening the raid window opens: defend your base, and if you see a chance, raid someone else's. BUILD YOUR BASE • Build towers, wells, a vault, a lab and a garage. Your base area grows as you level up. • Raise your walls, place your towers, and rearrange your layout whenever you like. SURVIVE THE DESERT • Head out on a bike, ATV, UTV or with a trailer, and upgrade your ride in the garage. • Take on Bocu, Karakoncolos, Tepegoz and the Sand Worm with rockets, machine guns and grenades. • Get past Yelbegen, guardian of the power plants, and claim the tech part. PLAY WITH YOUR CLAN • Start a clan, chat with your clanmates, drop markers on the map. • Isurus rises in a different corner every day. Bring the giant down together and share the loot. • Raid other bases: blast the wall open with rockets, silence the towers, empty the vault. OASIS • Trade at the caravanserai in the middle of the map and take jobs from traders. FAIR SEASONS • Everyone starts from zero each season. • Check your rank, past season legends and the top clans on the lobby leaderboard. • Scrap, fuel and power are never sold for real money. The shop only has cosmetics: skins, helmets, outfits. The game is free. You don't need an account to play; if you like, sign in with Apple or email to keep your progress.

On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
