ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Invaders... From Space! holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Invaders... From Space! has 20 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 66% of Invaders... From Space!'s written reviews are positive against 100% of Night Slashers's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
