## Description

A silent generation ship drifts between the stars. Wake its reactor, light its districts, and found a fleet of living cities. No ads, no purchases — just the ship.

You found her drifting dark between stars: a generation ship the size of a city, silent for centuries. One held breath on the reactor and her heartbeat returns. Everything after that is yours to rebuild.

Vastward is an idle game about restoration. Every purchase repairs a recognizable part of the vessel — water thaws and starts to move, gardens climb a dead district, homes light up and people return, and a star drive that hasn’t fired in living memory warms deck by deck. Progress is something you watch happen to a ship, not a number on a card.

THE SHIP COMES FIRST
• A hand-painted cutaway ark that visibly transforms with every restoration
• Widen the power grid, bank a reserve for the hours you’re away, and watch both on the hull itself
• Purpose-built hull classes with module bays — a build, not a checklist

PLAY YOUR WAY
• Honest idle: production continues while you’re away, capped and clearly reported — never a fee to collect it
• Hold-to-play Reactor Overdrive and Command Momentum reward focused sessions without punishing rest
• Four signal games — a drift, a puzzle, a lander, a loading dock — each a different skill, each paying real Power
• Ship dispatches with transparent, deterministic choices; no hidden odds anywhere

THE LONG GAME
• Ignite the star drive, chart routes to a shattered seed-vault and a dormant foundry
• Found a permanent fleet: archived ships terraform visible worlds with their own economies
• Game Center leaderboards for every signal game; progress backed up with iCloud

No advertisements. No purchases. No energy timers, streaks, or expiring offers. Vastward is free and complete.
