SubBuster
Read full descriptionHide full description
SubBuster is back, rebuilt from the ground up in 3D. Steer your gunboat across the surface, hold to aim and lob depth charges at the fleet below. Sink every enemy to clear the sea — then the next one is waiting, a little tougher. There is no last level: the rules keep tightening until nobody can go further. How deep can you go? • Hunters that chase you with homing torpedoes, minelayers, armored ironclads, cloaked phantom subs, drone swarms and the giant Leviathan every tenth level • Sharks carrying bombs, octopuses that grab your boat and jellyfish that shock it • Arcade mode: one sea, endless enemies that get faster and more numerous with every kill — with its own leaderboard • Power-ups: twin charges, mega blasts, rapid fire, shields and repairs • Chain explosions and combo multipliers reward clever shots • Every level is generated from its number, so level 12 is the same sea for every player • Four biomes and changing times of day, from sunrise to starry nights • Global leaderboard for score and time, and shareable result cards • Touch controls, keyboard and game-pad keys; no ads, no tracking
