Find your flow. Survive the swarm. Vector: Arcade Survival is a one-thumb neon shooter built around momentum, precision, and the irresistible pull of one more run. Pilot a glowing vector ship through an escalating field of geometric enemies. Thrust to steer, line up your approach, and fire automatically when targets enter your sights. Every movement is a choice: drift through danger, redirect at the last second, or turn your momentum into the perfect attack. GRAB POWER UPS Collect Damage, Rapid Fire, Slow Motion, and Shield boosts. Activate them when you need an edge and manage their remaining charge through the run. MASTER THE SWARM Face enemy formations with distinct behaviors—from triangle chains and magnetic squares to perimeter shooters and relentless pursuers. BREAK THE BOSSES Survive periodic octagon boss battles featuring sweeping lasers and guided rockets you can dodge or shoot down. CHASE THE SCORE Build fast kill combos, earn hull repairs as the waves climb, unlock Game Center achievements, and compete on global and friends leaderboards. FEATURES • One-handed joystick controls • Momentum-driven zero-gravity movement • Automatic directional shooting • Escalating procedural waves • Tactical power-up bank • Boss battles and destructible rockets • Game Center leaderboards and achievements • Original music, sound effects, and haptics • Designed for iPhone and iPad • Controller compatible How long can you hold the line?

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Vector at none against AI TD's 7. Vector also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs fortnightly). AI TD's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
