Space Invaders Extreme is a remake for the current generation of handhelds of one of the most iconic games ever made. The basic gameplay remains the same. You control a small spaceship at the bottom of the screen and shoot at the pixelated alien spaceships which are scrolling down the screen towards you, all the while avoiding their weapons' fire.

A lot of other elements have changed though: there’s a much more intense sense of speed to the game, compounded by excellent presentation, from the fitting music and superb sound effects that make the game even more addictive and involving, to the psychedelic backgrounds and splashes of vibrant colour. It’s an incredibly short game, so keep that in mind when considering a purchase. Don’t let that put you off too much though; it’s a budget title that offers a few hours of truly superb gaming and it comes highly recommended.
