City Sky Intercepts — יירוטים בשמי העיר

A free, browser-based arcade missile-defense game. Missiles, drones, and falling debris streak toward your city — your job is to tap each threat and intercept it with the right defense system before it lands. No download, no account, no cost. Playable on phone, tablet, and desktop, in English and Hebrew.

How to play

  1. Pick a defense system from the buttons at the bottom of the screen.
  2. Tap an incoming threat to launch an interceptor at it.
  3. Match the system to the threat — the wrong system will miss. (More on this below.)
  4. Protect your shields. Every threat that reaches the city costs you. Lose all your shields and the mission fails.
  5. Chain intercepts without missing to build a combo multiplier for bonus points.

Your four defense systems

Each interceptor is modeled on a real-world air-defense layer, and each is good at a different job. Picking the correct one for each threat is the heart of the game.

SystemBest againstRange / notes
Iron DomeDebris & drones (UAVs), low & short-range threatsLimited range — cannot reach high-altitude ballistic missiles. Unlimited ammo.
David's SlingMid-range threatsHigh accuracy, 40 rounds. Cannot fire into the top third of the sky.
Arrow 3Ballistic missilesLong range — hits anywhere on the map, including high altitude. 20 rounds that auto-regenerate (one every ~10 seconds).
THAADHigh-altitude ballistic threatsThe most powerful interceptor. Each shot is expensive, so use it deliberately.

Threats you'll face

Nine progressive missions

The campaign takes you across three cities and three times of day, ramping up speed and complexity as you go:

Economy & scoring

Every interception has a cost, and every second you keep the city intact earns money. After each mission you'll see your spending on interceptors, the damage you avoided, your uptime bonus, and your net economic impact — which funds upgrades. The strategy isn't only "shoot everything"; it's spending efficiently while keeping civilians safe.
