Missile Defense
Play Missile Defense free online. Launch interceptors to shield six cities from waves of falling missiles.
Defend six cities from waves of incoming missiles. Tap a spot in the sky to fire an interceptor from the nearest battery; it explodes into an expanding blast that destroys any missile inside. Lead your shots, catch several missiles with one blast, and ration your ammunition — later waves bring faster missiles that split in mid-air.

How to play Missile Defense
Objective: Survive as many waves as possible.
- Each tap fires from the nearest battery that still has ammunition (shown under each battery).
- Interceptors explode where you aimed; the blast grows then fades.
- Missiles that reach the ground destroy a city or a battery. Batteries are rebuilt each wave; cities are not.
- From wave 3 some missiles split into three on the way down.
Scoring
25 points per missile. After each wave: 100 per surviving city and 5 per unused interceptor.
Difficulty levels
Easy: slow missiles. Hard: fast missiles from the first wave.
Tips
- Aim ahead of missiles — blasts take a moment to grow.
- One well-placed blast can catch several missiles.
