Game Review (written by Josuecarrero) Added on: 02/20/2007
This is a strange, but fun game. At the beginning, it is quite difficult to understand, what you need to do, but after you get a grip of it, you will have no problem beating it. I first play this game in the Nintendo version, when I was a small kid. This one is the same game, but with better graphics in the DOS version.
The story of the game is that aliens are invading the Earth, and you need to stop them.

The story of the game is that aliens are invading the Earth, and you need to stop them. But in order to do this, you need first assemble a Rocket, to being able to go to their moon base, and destroy them. So you need to find the parts of the ship. They are scattered

around the world and you, armed with a laser gun and a jet pack, with limited fuel, need to travel around the world to find the parts of it. The only way you can beat this game is using the war room wisely. It’s a place, where you are looking at a world map. You can strategically put agents to infiltrate the countries, in order to see, if alien activity is encountered and if a rocket part is in that country. But you need to do this in a certain amount of time, before aliens completely dominate the world. Once you find country with aliens in it, you can fly to the country using your jet pack and you will play action scene. The first action is fighting with Leutonian Zeppelin (the name of the alien race), that is going to the U.S., to kidnap some scientist, in order to make bombs for the aliens.
Once you finish gathering the parts for the rocket and enough fuel to launch it, you go to the moon and play last levels. They are similar to Jungle base levels, but with alien girls shooting at you, and, finally, the alien king, Crag.
The game is a classical “Humans vs Aliens” game, but with a complicated plot. Music is a bit repetitive in the game, graphics are ok. But the game play is very interesting, enough to make you want to finish the game.
