Head to head
About

Alien Conquer

Read full description

Jim approaches the window of his room in the lunar base, the view displays the horizon with the planet earth and satellites cruising around it. In the car, Kate programs the control panel and sets the target, then the engine starts, and propulsion system turns on. The engine stops at the destination and in front of them two lunar dirt towers appear, with holes on all sides and in a path in center whose direction is down. Inside the hive, an ambush awaits them, an endless number of circular alien creatures with bulges all over their bodies pounce on them.
