Your weapons can only cover the two fronts facing the camera, so every swipe matters. Rotate at the right moment, hold back enemies, and stop attackers before they breach the station. Between runs, bank scrap, build a stronger arsenal, and tune your loadout in the Chop Shop. Buy and upgrade eight weapon types with distinct behaviors, then bring your best four into the next fight. Features: - Short, pick-up-and-play tower defense runs - Swipe-driven battlefield rotation - Four attack fronts with constant pressure management - Eight weapons with unique effects including splash, chill, burn, piercing, homing, chain lightning, and multi-shot - Scrap rewards, upgrades, loadouts, and daily streak bonuses - Mobile-first portrait controls with a quick interactive tutorial Hold every front. Spend your scrap wisely. Survive one more round.
