Your base is on the left. Theirs is on the right. Between them is a battlefield, and you are the only pilot on it. Raid & Rescue is a side-scrolling war of attrition where you fly the helicopter yourself and command everything else. Buy tanks, vans, rocket crews, soldiers and specialist teams; they march the moment they surface, whether or not you are ready. Your helicopter is the line-breaker — the one unit that can be where the fight actually is. FLY IT PROPERLY Two missiles, two bombs, seventy-five gun rounds, three lives. The pad is the only place to refuel and rearm, and a hard landing wrecks you as thoroughly as an enemy shell. Your gun angles down as you dive and sweeps through vertical when you turn. THE BATTLEFIELD FIGHTS BACK Anti-air flak batteries cover every altitude — there is no safe approach, only the reload window. Recon balloons ride high enough to block the ceiling, so a lane stays shut until you shoot one down. Bunkers trade garrison for damage. Houses hold troops that fire faster the fuller they get. TEN TIERS PER MISSION Beat a mission and it reopens harder. Enemy funding, aggression and unit mix all climb through ten difficulty levels, and the elite commander plays the same economy you do — same costs, same rules, no cheating. RESEARCH THE EDGE Thirty-two projects in the Lab: faster autoloaders, better seeker heads, tougher drivetrains, deeper supply. Research runs while you fight and compounds every battle after it. CATCH WHAT FALLS Supply crates drop mid-battle. Fly through one and it is yours — coins, blueprints, or something better. Progress syncs to your account, so your campaign follows you. Leaderboards rank every raider by the missions they have cleared. No account needed to play. Just take off.
