AN ARMY THAT GROWS BEFORE YOUR EYES Six scouts at the start, a legion of mechs at the finish. Your army advances and fires on its own: you drag a finger to steer it, and your real power is picking the right gate at the right moment. CAMPAIGN: 12 MISSIONS, 3 ACTS • ACT I — FOUNDRY: break the Iron Hegemony and its fusion line. • ACT II — NEON RIFT: blind the Spectre Network, which predicts your every move. • ACT III — CORE CITADEL: bring down the Order of the Absolute Core. Every sector has its briefing, its radio transmissions, its scenery and its music. Four bosses close the march: the Colossus, the Relay Titan, the Core Guardian and the Absolute Guardian. CHOOSE AT EVERY GATE ×2 and ×3 robots, EVOLUTION, FUSION 10 → 1, REPAIR, OVERCLOCK, HACK (enemies switch sides) and five modules you can see bolted onto the machines: Armor, Lasers, Shield, Thrusters, Missiles. Against you: turrets, artillery batteries, drone swarms and laser walls that never forgive a hesitation. 17 ROBOT MODELS From the Scout to the Mech, from the Tank to the Spectre, up to the elite allies handed out by the gates of acts II and III: LOGZ Veteran, Sentinel and LOGZ Drone. SOMETHING TO DO EVERY DAY • DAILY RATION: a login streak, a reward that keeps climbing. • DAILY CHALLENGE: one level and two mutators drawn from the date — the same for everyone — reward ×3. • ENDLESS PROTOCOL: 48 segments of rising difficulty, one judge only, your distance record. • 21 MISSION ORDERS to complete, and three stars to earn on each of the 12 levels (stars come from losing few robots). BETWEEN RUNS Your ◆ pay for 8 permanent upgrades: REINFORCEMENTS, DAMAGE, ARMOR, PLUNDER, FIRE RATE, then HACKING, ARSENAL and VETERANS, unlocked act after act. WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE Hundreds of animated robots on screen at once, robots that come apart as they fall, explosions, shockwaves, missile trails, adaptive music (menu, combat, boss). A REDUCED FLASHES option for sensitive eyes. NOTHING ELSE No ads, no in-app purchases, no account, no data collection. The game runs entirely offline. English and French.

Verdict

The call
