DEFEND THE PLANET. HOLD THE LINE. The Thaevrek Hegemony is invading Terran Reach. Siege shells, drones, mines and bombers are falling on your cities, and three interceptor batteries are all that stand in the way. Silo Commander 3.0 rebuilds the classic missile-defense arcade game in full 3D. Aim, fire and detonate interceptors across the sky, catch several threats in a single blast, and keep your cities standing for as long as you can. TEN THAEVREK CAPITAL SHIPS Every tenth wave a capital ship arrives: the Orbital Breacher, Reinforcement Carrier, Fleet Carrier, Asteroid Miner, Lava Saucer, Mother Saucer, Toxic Harvester, Cryo Saucer, Siege Cruiser and the Flying Fortress. Each one has its own telegraphed weapons, defenses and systems you can shoot away: drone screens, emitter domes, repair bays, missile racks and more. Survive all ten and they come back faster. YOUR DEFENSES • Three interceptor batteries with limited ammo. Every shot counts. • Honeycomb shields that absorb a hit for a city or battery. • Auto turrets that pick off threats on their own. • Supply-crate boosts: bigger blasts, faster interceptors, shields, repairs and turrets. THREATS THAT ESCALATE Siege shells, Breach Drone scouts, Seeder mines that split apart and Scythe bombers arrive faster and in greater numbers with every wave. PLAY YOUR WAY • Normal mode, or Hard mode where threats target your surviving defenses. • Game Center leaderboards for Normal and Hard, plus 80 achievements. • Play on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV and Apple Vision Pro. • Touch, mouse and keyboard, game controllers and the Siri Remote. CUSTOMIZE THE LOOK, NOT THE ODDS Silo Commander is free to play. Optional 3D cosmetic packs restyle your interceptors and blasts, your cities and batteries, or the invading hostiles. They never change difficulty, scoring, achievements or leaderboards. The last line of defense is yours. Take command.
