About Flak Front

Flak Front is a free, offline-friendly anti-air game about firing at where a raider WILL be, not where it is. Your gun sits on a breakwater in front of a city of nine wards, and every shell is a timed airburst you commit at a predicted point — each live contact draws you a lead diamond, and the fuse ring closing on it is your window. Attention is the real resource: one committed burst per aim cycle, bankable to a small reserve, so a wasted shell costs you the next one too. Nine named sectors each introduce exactly one new idea, from the charging Lancer to the armoured Iron Whale to a night watch where a searchlight cone is all you can see by, and between sectors a Salvo Board lets you spend salvage on radar, relights and fuse work. A ward that falls stays dark, so a run ends on an accumulated defence rather than one miss.

How to play

Tap the sky where you want the shell to burst — not on the raider, but on the cyan lead diamond drawn ahead of it, which is where it will be when your shell arrives. A ring closes around your aim point as the fuse runs down; the burst happens when the ring closes, so commit early enough for the shell to fly. You get one committed burst per aim cycle and a small bank of saved bursts, so spamming taps costs you real shots. Raiders that reach the city take a ward, and the ward strip across the top shows how many of your nine are still lit; a dark ward never relights during a run. Clearing a sector opens a Salvo Board where salvage buys radar (which draws lead diamonds), a relight, or fuse work. Four clean sectors in a run earn one Relief Crew, which catches the moment your last ward would fall — once. Clear the ninth sector to open the endless watch; your highest cleared sector carries over, so the next session opens where this one ended.
