Launch your missiles on trucks & tanks (land), boats & submarines (sea) and planes & helicopters (air). You are given a limited time period to launch your missiles from their silos to destroy as many vehicles as you can.

Upon fire, your missiles first go to the top of the screen without touching any vehicle. Then on their way down, you can slightly guide them left or right to reach your targets.

Of course the game is going faster and faster.
