This game is pretty much an unofficial remake of the old classic Space Invaders. It reminds me a lot of Pacman Championship Edition by taking an old game and injecting it with new life by adding modern features and much more color. In this case they added a cool upgrading system which is much more motivation to play well then simple high scores. They also speed up the game much more later on almost making it feel like a shump which is pretty enjoyable and again very similar to the new Pacman game in that the gameplay gets more frantic as time goes on.

The music is not bad but nothing you will remember outside of the game. The visuals are pretty nice though and I am glad they chose to display the game in a slim vertical fashion like the arcades of old while the rest of the screen is filler art. It has leader boards to compete with your friends and strangers if you are into highscores. The boss battles are there but are not really interesting to fight and you don't really get a heads up before hand to stock up on upgrades. On the other hand challenge rounds are rather fun and can really help you out with rewards if you are accurate enough to shoot down most of the UFOs. Overall I find it a very enjoyable game for fans of Space Invader and fans of great games alike.
