Strait of Hormuz

Run the chokepoint on one thumb

Navigating Strait of Hormuz sends you north through a narrow corridor of drifting sea mines, high-speed patrol boats, and drone swarms, with a radar sweep as your only warning.

Game Details

A one-thumb naval survival roguelike through the world’s most contested shipping lane.

Steer by dragging your thumb, tap anywhere to launch a Tomahawk at the nearest threat, and hold for a heavy salvo against up to three enemies at once. Four timed legs steadily raise the spawn rate and threat mix, parachuted supply drops repair your hull or refill your ammunition, and every run banks salvage you can spend on new vessels between attempts.

Radar sweep mechanics

Threats stay fogged until the sweep line crosses them, then show up as ghost silhouettes so you can read their heading before firing.

Three unlockable hulls

Start with the slow, tough Tanker, then earn the fragile but nimble Patrol Boat and the Escort Frigate with its larger missile magazine.

Short permadeath runs

Three to seven minutes per attempt, designed to be played one-handed in portrait.
