Our take on Sandstorm
The listing emphasizes enemy hordes, upgrades, and super weapons, while the core structure is narrower: defending a base and escorting trucks. The stated variety comes from enemy, weapon, time-of-day, and upgrade counts rather than from a broad range of objectives.

Battles involve large groups of enemies and call for quick reactions alongside tactical decisions. The game contains 50 levels, more than 30 upgrades, 8 enemy varieties, 5 super weapons, and 4 tank gun types. Missions take place during both daytime and nighttime.
