Mode 01 — Recommended

Classic

3 lives · Round-by-round · Marathon

The full WS Drift experience. Wave-based rounds with a ROUND N intro and a 3-2-1-GO between sets. Perfect for long runs where you find your rhythm.

Mode 02 — Pure score chase

Endless

3 lives · No round breaks · Continuous waves

No countdowns, no menus, no breath. Waves spawn continuously and difficulty climbs the longer you survive. The leaderboard mode.

17 fighters · 5 tiers

Find your ship.

Each fighter tunes the stats differently — fire rate, hitbox size, drift speed, power-up duration. Buy once, keep forever. No subscriptions, no consumables.

What you get

No grind. No paywall.

Free to download. Free to play forever. Every fighter is a one-time purchase if you want one — you don't need any of them to win.

Procedurally
generated waves

Every formation is built from a unique level + wave seed. No two runs are ever the same. The game gets denser, faster, and meaner as you climb.

One-handed

Drag anywhere. Thumb-friendly across iPhone and iPad.

Auto-fire

Bolts fire from your nose. You focus on dodging and lanes.

99 achievements

Score, kill counts, levels, ship mastery, mode wins, daily streaks — track everything that matters.

Daily streak

Once a day keeps it lit. Reminder at 8pm if you're about to break it.

Game Center

Two separate leaderboards. Climb against your friends.

Free forever

No energy. No subs. Optional Remove Ads $2.99.

Privacy first

No server. No account. Game Center optional.

Before you fly

Common questions.

The quick answers. Anything else — Support has the full FAQ, or just email us.

Is WS Drift free?
Yes — free to download and free to play forever. No energy system, no subscriptions, no pay-to-win. Extra fighters are optional one-time purchases, and you don't need any of them to win.
Do I need an internet connection or an account?
No. WS Drift has no server and works fully offline. Sign in with Apple and Game Center are optional — used only for leaderboards and to label your local profile.
Does it work on iPad?
Yes. WS Drift runs on iPhone and iPad at 60fps, with the same one-handed drift controls on both.
Is it pay-to-win? Do I have to buy ships?
No. The free Standard fighter is fully competitive. The other 16 fighters tune stats like fire rate, hitbox size, and drift speed differently — a matter of style, not power. Buy once, keep forever.
What iOS version do I need?
WS Drift requires iOS 15 or later.
How many fighters and modes are there?
17 fighters across 5 tiers, two modes (Classic and Endless) with separate leaderboards, 99 achievements, and procedurally generated waves so no two runs are the same.
