About

Drone Backlash

Read full description

The sky above your field post is no longer clear. Scouts fly low, heavy drones hold their course, and jet-powered drones give you just seconds to intercept them. Hold your position and ready your weapon for the next raid. Complete six 90-second operations with different enemy formations. Meet the objective, keep your position intact and improve your result to earn three stars. Take a five-minute pickup patrol through fields, villages and forests. Shoot down incoming FPVs before they hit the truck and shake your aim. Complete three-stage contracts across 12 ranks. Build your arsenal. Nine weapons change how you fight, with general-purpose and heavy machine guns, rapid-fire barrages, short bursts, buckshot, airburst fire, guided missiles and an interceptor drone. Lead moving targets and manage recoil and heat. Face eight drone types, including FPVs. Damage to individual parts changes their flight; burning wreckage falls to the ground. Rewards vary by drone type. Buy weapons, four upgrade paths with five levels for each weapon, and selectable modifications. Purchases persist; retired autonomous support is refunded. Ammunition is free. No real-money payments, ads or paid currency packs. Aim with motion and touch together, or use the joystick alone. Play in portrait or landscape; recenter your aim, adjust sensitivity and mirror controls for left-handed play. Sound and vibration are adjustable. No registration or internet connection is needed after installation. The interface is available in 30 languages. All aircraft and weapon characteristics are fictional game designs.
