About

Smash Dash RTS

Features
Read full description

Build your base. Give the orders. Take the battlefield. Smash Dash RTS puts you in direct command of individual units and whole groups in real-time strategy battles designed to last around five minutes. Capture territory, outmaneuver other players or AI opponents, and challenge friends to private 1v1 matches. BUILD, DEFEND AND EXPAND Capture tiles to expand your territory. Place walls and defensive weapons, protect your base and choose when to push forward. Collapsing base shields change the opening battle as protected areas gradually shrink. COMMAND YOUR FORCES Deploy tanks, aircraft and specialist units. Select individual units or groups, position your defenses and use orbital weapons to turn the battle. Different battlefields bring variety to every encounter. CHALLENGE YOUR FRIENDS Add friends, arrange private 1v1 battles and meet in a private room before the match. Compare player stats and communicate through preset messages. LEARN OFFLINE Learn the controls in the guided offline tutorial, then experiment with units and tactics in the offline Target Range. The game follows your device language, and you can switch languages in Settings. PROGRESS AND PERSONALIZE Complete quests, progress through seasonal rewards and customize your battlefield identity with army colorways and other cosmetics. REPLAY AND SHARE Revisit completed matches in your Battle Log. Choose your highlights, export a video and share your battles with friends. An internet connection is required for multiplayer. Optional in-app purchases are available.
