Capture the flag. Take the factory. Turn the battle. Zed Command is an offline real-time strategy game for iPhone. Lead a robot army, seize territory and break the enemy headquarters in a single-player campaign built around battlefield decisions. Every sector matters. More territory speeds up your reinforcements. A captured factory can change the balance of power. An infantry squad can claim an abandoned tank and turn it against the enemy. TAKE CONTROL OF THE FRONT Command rifle squads, anti-armor infantry, scout vehicles, tanks and defensive turrets. Capture flags, contest factories and protect your headquarters while pushing toward the enemy base. KEEP REINFORCEMENTS MOVING Choose what your factories produce and set rally points for new recruits. Production runs automatically, leaving you to decide where to send your forces and when to strike. PAUSE. PLAN. PUSH FORWARD. Stop the action with tactical pause, select your units and issue orders. Resume when your plan is ready. Use roads, bridges and chokepoints to shape each attack. CLAIM ABANDONED HARDWARE Send infantry to board unoccupied vehicles and turrets. Reinforce your army with equipment already on the battlefield. FIGHT THROUGH THE CAMPAIGN Advance through 12 missions across scrapyard, salt-flat and frozen industrial environments. Learn the controls with interactive field training, choose Easy, Standard or Hard difficulty, and replay completed missions to try a different approach. PLAY ON YOUR TERMS - Offline battles against computer-controlled opponents. - Tactical pause and touch controls designed for landscape play. - Automatic local saves to continue your current operation. - No ads, player accounts, subscriptions or consumable currencies.
