RAID ON NEON STRAIT The Crimson Veil controls the channel. GDS Vanguard is your only foothold. As Captain Elias Kane, launch sorties against radar sites, missile batteries, drone factories, and command nodes while enemy patrols close in. A top-down tactical action game for touch controls and landscape play. Pilot five aircraft through ten campaign sectors, endless survival, and a daily challenge — all from your carrier deck. YOUR MISSION Neutralize every target and return alive. Destroy radar, missiles, factories, supply depots, and command bunkers to advance the campaign. Earn up to three medals per sector for objectives cleared, protecting Vanguard, and efficient strikes. BOSS TARGETS Each sector ends with a fortified boss — missile silos, oil refineries, strategic bridges, nuclear sites, command bunkers, and the final Crimson Veil HQ. Boss sites are heavily defended by SAMs, artillery, fighters, and patrol craft. They are larger, tougher, harder to hit with guns or missiles, and hit back harder. Save bombs for boss structures. Bombing deals far more damage than cannons, rockets, or missiles. Clear the perimeter, line up your run, and drop the boss to secure the sector. DEFEND GDS VANGUARD Enemy boats, drones, SAMs, artillery, fighters, and helicopters attack your carrier when you are docked or distracted. Return and defend when the Vanguard is under fire. FIVE AIRCRAFT Warden Rotor (hover gunship), Iron Hog (heavy assault), Storm Harrier (fast strike), Ghost Falcon (interceptor), and Spectre Frame (VTOL stealth). Unlock higher tiers as you clear sectors — Ghost at seven sectors, Spectre at eight. Choose your aircraft from the Intel roster. CONTROLS MOVE with the joystick. GUNS, rockets, missiles, and bombs — bombs are essential against bosses. HOVER on the Warden. BOOST on jets. LAND over Vanguard to dock and reload. Manage fuel, return for rearm and repair, and spend Mission Credits in the Hangar. TEN SECTORS Channel Entry, Oil Platform Delta, Contested Isles, Neon Narrows, Crimson Anchorage, Veil Command, Iron Coast, Storm Breaker, Black Reef, and Crimson Veil — each with unique weather, enemy placement, and a boss objective. Fog, sandstorms, high winds, and heat haze all affect your sortie. Toggle Hard Mode for +20% enemy pressure. SURVIVAL, DAILY, AND LEADERBOARDS Endless Survival escalates until you fall — pick a buff every five waves. Daily Challenge offers a seeded sortie each day with streak bonuses. Compete on Game Center leaderboards for Survival, Daily, and Campaign totals (iOS). HANGAR, GUIDE, AND SETTINGS Upgrade engine, armor, countermeasures, weapons, and ordnance per aircraft. Mission SFX and background music with volume controls. The hub links to a How To Play guide, volume and gameplay settings, optional developer tips, and 22 achievements. Neon-lit tactical displays keep combat readable at speed. Tactical radar tracks threats. Mission briefings and story beats set the stakes on key sectors. Offline play — no internet or login required. Progress saves locally on your device. Captain Kane is cleared for launch. Download Raid on Neon Strait and take the fight to the Crimson Veil.
