Drop in. Loot up. Get out alive. Dronefall is a real-time brawler with the stakes of an extraction shooter. You command a squad, not a single hero. Every match drops you into a hostile open zone you share with rival squads, AI patrols and the horde. Sweep the map, take the fights you can win, and haul back everything you can carry. But the extraction window is closing. Push deeper for the rare drops, or pull out now and lock in what you already have. Miss the window and you lose the loot and the units carrying it. Make it out, and everything you brought back goes into your army. Unlock new unit classes, upgrade weapons and engines, and come back stronger for the next run. WHAT YOU DO • Command a full squad in real time, not one character • Fight players, AI forces and the horde on the same map • Loot fuel, gear and rare drops under constant pressure • Decide every run: extract now, or risk it all for more • Build and upgrade your army between runs NO SECOND CHANCES Everything you carry is on the line until you cross the extraction zone. Every run you survive makes the next one bigger.
Ashfall Squad

The city fell. Your squad did not. Ashfall Squad is a fast zombie survival game you can play with one thumb. Lead a squad of three heroes into the ruins, hold the line against endless hordes, and grow stronger with every run. FIVE-MINUTE RUNS, ENDLESS CHOICES Your heroes fire on their own. You move them. Every level-up offers three cards and you keep one: new weapons, passives and upgrades. Max a weapon and pair it with the right passive to evolve it into something much stronger. SWAP HEROES MID-FIGHT Your squad is three heroes, and any of them can take the lead. The Gunner shreds crowds, the Medic keeps everyone standing, the Demo blows the horde apart. When a hero goes down, the next one steps up. GIANT BOSSES Every sector ends with a boss: the Warlord, the Behemoth, Patient Zero and the Abomination. Learn their patterns and take them down. 20 SECTORS, THEN HARD MODE Fight from the suburbs to the highway, through the mall and the subway, all the way to the lab where it started. Clear them all, then take them on again in Hard mode. BUILD YOUR SQUAD Six heroes to unlock and level up, each with four forms. Six gear slots and five rarities, with merging to reach the next tier. Field Training turns spare gold into permanent upgrades. Chest odds are always shown before you open one. SOMETHING TO DO EVERY DAY Your squad patrols the wasteland while you are away and brings home gold, keys and gear. Daily Ops with a new Weekly Op every week, missions, a login calendar, a 7-day Boot Camp event for new players, a battle pass, and Game Center leaderboards. Optional reminders tell you when your energy or Patrol is full. PLAY FREE Everything in the game can be earned by playing. Ads are optional rewarded ads, plus an occasional short ad between runs after the first few sectors. Ads are never personalized, and the game does not track you. Optional in-app purchases are available. There are no subscriptions: every purchase is a one-time payment, and the Monthly and Weekly Cards never renew. Questions or feedback: temveno@gmail.com
