What is it?

Sandfront is a sci-fi real-time strategy game in the Command & Conquer tradition. Build power plants and refineries, let harvesters bring in crystal, then raise barracks and factories.

Destroy every enemy building to win. Short matches, 1v1 or 2v2.

How to play

  1. Click the power plant in the build panel on the right. When its card says ready, click the card, then click rock next to your base to place it.
  2. Place a refinery: a harvester comes with it and mines crystal (your money) on its own.
  3. Build barracks or a factory and click unit cards to train them. Shift-click trains five.
  4. Drag a box to select units and right-click to move or attack. Press A, then click the ground to attack-move.
  5. Destroy all enemy buildings to win. Low power halves production and defense speed.

Good to know

  • New? Start with the 5-minute tutorial; it points at each thing to click.
  • From 2:30 the sandworm hunts anything moving on sand. Rock is safe.
  • In a short game (6 min), the side with more building/unit value plus crystal wins at time. In 2v2, teammates share vision.
  • In fullscreen, Esc cancels targeting; hold Esc to leave fullscreen. Leave the game with the Exit button on the right (Shift+Esc).
