Missile Command is a fast-paced, arcade action game where players must defend their cities by blasting a bombardment of missiles hailing from the sky. Launch counter-missiles from three towers to protect your city and target power-ups to gain an edge at critical moments. The cities can also be destroyed, but at the beginning of each level, all your cities, ammunition and a destroyed city will be restored. You lose the game when all the six cities have been destroyed. Power-Ups: Don’t just target missiles – take aim at all-new power-ups to survive longer with shields, freeze, and the ultimate missile flares. Upgrade: Each destroying enemy missile will earn you a coin and allows those coins for you to upgrade tower and buy power-ups to get an edge and achieve the highest scores and unlock all levels. Levels: Currently, there are 30 exciting levels waiting for you to play, with gameplay getting much tougher and challenging by each level as you progress. For every loss, you lose energy which can be either regenerated in 5 mins or if you can’t wait you can always get from the store and use coins you have earned.
