Die Alien Slime

After such a promising title, it was a bit of a disappointment to find that this is actually the slowest Alien Syndrome clone in the known world. In fact, that's probably doing Alien Syndrome a disservice, because at least there's more to that game than wandering through an unchanging scrolling maze shooting dots at blobby aliens.

The weapons at your disposal fire really slowly and even the most powerful lasers are little more effective than the initial dot gun. If there was more to the game than the weak blasting it might have been more fun, but as it stands it's not a bundle of laughs.

Nice music, but the bland graphics and gameplay will bore the snores out of you.
