The #1 anti-productivity app on the App Store! “Task Attack...accomplish[es] the even harder task of standing out alongside the App Store’s crop of uninspired and shovelware retro clones...well worth a purchase.” -TouchArcade “Anyone who has ever played an arcade game, or is a fan of retro titles, will be right at home in Task Attack.” - AppAdvice Task Attack is a humorous, shoot'em up arcade game with a twist. Drawing inspiration from the 80's classics, players first encounter attacking alien invaders, but soon must fend off “real life” interruptions that creep into the game and join the assault. To successfully defend the galaxy, players must defeat trips to the store, car repairs, news alerts, and other annoying distractions. Do you have what it takes to survive a Task Attack?
