A merciless alien species has invaded Earth and feeds on human brains. You play a human fighter facing the invasion across atmospheric locations, equipped with a flashlight and a weapon.
The game is a top-down arcade shooter built around moving through areas and shooting waves of aliens. Its twin-stick shooter format focuses on direct, fast-paced combat.
Play alone or with up to three others in local co-op. Try to survive endless hordes and push your high score higher; a prologue introduces the game.
