Description

Invaders is a Space Invader variant. Players control a tank at the bottom of the screen and fire at incoming aliens that fly in diagonal patterns. There are various bunkers at the bottom of the screen to hide from incoming fire. A UFO can fly by at the top of the screen periodically which earns bonus points when shot down. The game plays significantly slower than the Arcade original, something that was rectified in the release for the Voltmace Database console variant. The game features a day and night mode for different difficulties as well as one and two-player variants with different weaponry and/or no bunkers.
