Invaders - shoot waves of aliens earning as much points as possible. Back in 1978 it swept the world and became a first "killer app" for video game consoles. The game was so successful that in Japan it was attributed to the shortage of 100 yen coins and in 1982 it grossed 3 times more than newly released Start Wars movie. It has been ported to numerous platforms. So why should you give our version a try? We tried to recreate all the fun of the game in a tiny download package. Waves of colorful, funky-looking aliens are descending on Earth, and your mission is shoot them down before they can land. Tilt the phone to move defender ship from side to side, shielding your ship behind the brick-wall defenses. The longer you take to eliminate the aliens, the closer they get to the ground. Shoot down the extraterrestrial spaceship at the top of the screen for extra points. Don't forget to check our Game section for other fun games...

Rebound Invaders from Outer Space Back from the arcade days when classic arcade games ruled we bring you Rebound Invaders from Outer Space. Your ship is equipped with the latest high energy weapon - The Lightening Plasma Ball. Lightening plasma balls are great, they bounce everywhere until they destroy a ship or fall off the bottom of the screen. Great, you can shoot around corners and have lots of bullets in action at the same time, one small design flaw though ... they will also destroy your ship! The aliens are fighting back: They have developed a light saber force field to bounce your plasma balls right back at you - take care not to shoot yourself in the foot! So there's lots of action in this arcade style shoot'em up. You'll need fast reactions, and lots of skill to defeat the "Rebound Invaders from Outer Space". Tilt your screen to move, touch the screen anywhere to fire. If you're not a fan of tilt controls, pop in to the setting and you've find an option to enable on screen controls. Download Rebound Invaders now, its Free.
