Invadabots 2.9

CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET Staff

This take on the classic Space Invaders arcade game strikes us as a strictly average choice. This program's concept is the same as that of its forefather, requiring you to blast away at the hordes of descending aliens, although in this case, your enemies don't look very intimidating. Dodging your foes' incoming fire does take a bit of dexterity, but play with the keyboard is easy enough to learn. Invasion's graphics are strictly mediocre with the exception of the explosions, which look a tad more realistic.

You can choose from several types of music, and while some don't really suit the game's theme, none of them sound very well produced. Occasional dabblers in arcade-style games might give this one a try, but we doubt serious gamers will be all that impressed.
