Space Invaders
Defend Earth from descending rows of alien invaders. Pick them off before they reach the ground and dodge their return fire.
How to play Space Invaders
Slide your cannon left and right along the bottom of the screen and fire upward at the marching aliens. The fewer invaders remain, the faster they move, so keep your shots accurate. Duck behind the bunkers for cover, and watch for the mystery saucer that streaks across the top for bonus points.
Controls
Left / Right arrows to move, Space to shoot.
Tips & tricks
- Take out the lowest aliens first to slow the descent.
- Use the bunkers for cover, but they wear away with every hit.
- Pick off the edge columns so the swarm has less room to advance.
