Level up. After successful missions, you will gain experience points and level up. You can spend your points to upgrade your base so that it becomes stronger, making it easier to defend.

Defend your bases. Strategically play your cards to defend your bases on various planets! Your deck is composed of hazards, weapons, and special items like batteries and debris tractors. Use your defenses to protect your base and collect debris to spend in the shop.

Build your deck. The debris that you collect can be spent to purchase new cards for your deck. These can be stronger weapons, multipliers, and much more to make it easier for you to defend your base. Also make sure to upgrade your base stats so that it's fortified.

What is it about?

Visually, Missile Cards features a retro 16-bit aesthetic that serves as a great homage to classic games, including Missile Command, which this is based on. The game makes use of a bright and vibrant color palette, and all of the icons on the cards makes it easy to tell what they do from a single glance. The text is also pixelated like back in the day, but still easy-to-read. Missile Cards also takes place on various planets, so you can expect to see some beautiful landscapes in the backdrop of the grid you’ll be playing on. The animations in Missile Cards are smooth and fluid, and I had no issues at all on my iPhone 7. There’s also a fantastic chiptune soundtrack to go along with it all, so it feels like the finishing touch on the vintage design. For the developer’s first release on the App Store, Missile Cards is an excellent title in terms of visual and audio design.
