Cold Front

Real-time strategy for iPad

A classic base-building RTS, designed for touch. Mine ore, power your base, build an army and outthink your opponent. Cold Front rewards building a real force over rushing, so a crowd of cheap infantry won't crack a defended base.

What you're in for

Five factions

Each plays differently. Some win on range and vision, others on mass and armor, others on precision or depth. Pick the one that fits how you like to fight.

An energy economy

Beyond ore, you can tap oil, coal and gas fields, and build solar or nuclear power. Where your power comes from shapes how you play.

Play online

Pick a game size from 1v1 up to eight players. Empty seats fill with AI, so you always get a game.

Solo skirmish

Fight the AI on Easy, Normal or Hard across several maps.

Kid-friendly chat

Chat uses preset quick messages and taunts only, with mute, block and team-only options. There's no free typing.

Made for touch

Select, group and command your units with your fingers. No controller needed.
