Alien Attack

How to play Alien Attack

Alien Attack is a formation shooter. Five rows of aliens march sideways, drop a row at the edge and speed up as their numbers fall — so the last few are always the fastest. Four shields sit between you and them, and they erode from both sides as shots land.

A bonus saucer crosses the top of the screen at irregular intervals for extra points. Clearing the formation starts the next wave lower down and faster than the last.

Objective

Destroy the whole alien formation before it reaches your line. Use the shields while they last.
