Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
63 of 297 sampled reviews raised it
Its simple premise, fast-paced gameplay and short quick-fire sessions are sure to take you back to playing Missile Command back in the day.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
29 of 297 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics are well-drawn and the music though simple, suits the pace of the game perfectly.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
22 of 297 sampled reviews raised it
Each enemy has a unique set of patters that with some observation can be learned to properly deal with them so even though the game play is simple with only one mouse button required to play, it's small but tricky at times learning curve makes it a fun and satisfying game to master.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
21 of 297 sampled reviews raised it
The voice overs for the story content is nicely done and there are some good background voices too for the ships, the controls are really so easy and all you have to worry about is moving the mouse to aim at the targets and then the mouse button to fire your weapons.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
8 of 297 sampled reviews raised it
The game boasts some very nice graphics (especially the warships) and some interesting sound design (especially in the menus), and is overall a fun, small game.
