Defend the Earth's supply of uranium from the oncoming Zargon fleet... While loading the main program it plays a tune to stop you getting bored. Read Review
The speed of the ships is impressive, and the sound is good too. Read Review
The citizens of Earth have fled before the oncoming Zargon fleet. You have been left to guard the Earth's supply of uranium... suddenly the sky above you is filled by the enemy fleet... things are worse than you expected...
Will you be the supreme world champion?
The mothership is laying pods that hatch on landing, or split into two if shot. Other ships are peeling off from the main fleet, and diving towards the holes made in the defences. The successful ones mutate into motherships, which are indestructible.
Once the majority have mutated, they commence landing procedures.
You may have holes in your own defences to trap the hatched out pods. You can only do this five times.
Missiles = 20
