MISSION is a free arcade game you can play right here in your browser. Think car and shooting — that is the shape of it. You can jump in for two minutes or lose an hour to it; either works.

How to play MISSION
Nothing here needs explaining twice. You will want a keyboard for this one — the arrow keys / WASD carry most of it, and the table below has the rest. It is built tall rather than wide — comfortable one-handed on a phone, centred and uncropped on a monitor. Restarting is instant, so there is no cost to experimenting.
Controls
| Input | Action |
|---|---|
| Arrow keys / WASD | Drive and steer |
| Spacebar | Brake |
On mobile: Tap and swipe directly on the screen. The game is built for portrait, so you can play one-handed without rotating your phone.
Why it is worth playing
The appeal here is the loop: a short round, a clear result, and an obvious idea about what to do differently next time. It works as well on a phone on a bus as it does on a desktop.
