You are the duty officer on an air-defence console. Contacts appear on the scope. You do not know what they are. Query IFF, wait three seconds, then read the returned data — speed, altitude, radar cross section — and INFER the threat yourself. The game never labels it for you. Then the real decision: which weapon? An IR missile costs $150k. A radar missile costs $350k. CIWS costs $5k. The laser is free but needs time you may not have. Fire the expensive one at a cheap drone and you win the engagement while losing the operation. A leaker that reaches the centre damages a facility. Lose enough facilities and the operation is over — no matter how much money is left in the vault. • Infer, don't be told — no automatic threat labels, ever • Four weapons with real trade-offs in range, cost and reload • Ammunition economy: every shot is a decision you pay for • Graded S to F on five criteria, with hard caps for downing a friendly • DAILY OPERATION — the same operation for everyone, one attempt a day • FREE OPERATIONS — endless seeded operations across four difficulty tiers No ads. No energy timers. No in-app purchases. Everything is unlocked. iPhone and iPad.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Cost Exchange at none against Cockroach Smasher's 1. Cost Exchange also leads on ads (none vs shown). Cockroach Smasher's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
