Your Radar Is Your Eyes

A descending green sweep line reveals threats hidden in the fog. Amber blips mark incoming contacts. As the sweep crosses a threat it ghost-reveals as a green silhouette — you can read its heading and type before it enters firing range.

Stay ahead of the sweep. React early. Survive longer.

Three Escalating Threats

Every leg raises the spawn rate and shifts the threat mix. The strait gets worse.

💣

Sea Mines

Drift slowly down the corridor. Predictable but deadly if you're not watching your lane.

🚤

Patrol Boats

Fast-attack craft that home in on your position. Require quick missile responses.

🚁

Drone Swarms

Three drones cross in staggered formation. High target count, tight timing.

Built for One Thumb

↕ Steer

Hold and drag anywhere in the lower screen. Your vessel eases toward your thumb offset — you control direction, not exact position. Natural virtual-analog feel.

🎯 Tap to Fire

Single tap launches one strike missile at the nearest threat (1 charge). The missile tracks in real time — just fire and steer.

⚡ Hold for Salvo

Hold 0.7 seconds to unleash a heavy 3-missile salvo (2 charges). An amber ring charges at your thumb so you can feel the timing without looking at the HUD.

📦 Grab Airdrops

Parachuted supply crates drift down the corridor. Steer into green crates for hull repairs (+HULL) or amber crates to refill your magazine (+AMMO).

Choose Your Side

Rome or Persia — two ancient empires, one strait. Your vessel flies that standard at its stern; every hostile boat flies the other.

The Roman standard: a gold eagle over a war galley, ringed by a laurel wreath with SPQR and CLASSIS scrolls, on a crimson field.

CLASSIS ROMANA · IMPERIAL FLEET
SOUTHERN APPROACH · FAR FROM HOME

PERSIA
The Persian Empire

ROYAL FLEET OF THE GREAT KING
NORTHERN SHORE · HOME WATERS
It changes the flags, and nothing else. Both sides sail the same strait against the same mines, boats and drones — spawn rates, damage, salvage and scoring are identical either way. Switch sides any time from the fleet screen.

Three Hulls. One Strait.
