Story / Setting

The premise imagines NERV successfully cloning Angels such as the Fourth and Sixth, then channeling that breakthrough into a competitive attack-exercise system between players. Each player governs their own New Tokyo-3, framed as a fortress city under constant threat from other players' Angel-clone forces rather than a single scripted invasion.

Gameplay

Play splits into two loops. On offense, players research and mass-produce Angel clones to send against other players' cities and take their resources. On defense, players lay out fortress-city infrastructure, positron cannons, and N2 mines, deploying an Evangelion unit to intercept incoming clone attacks when conditions allow. It follows the base-building, attack-and-raid structure familiar from Clash of Clans-style strategy games, reskinned with Evangelion hardware and threats.
