Missile Invader - retro handheld emulation1.1 - App Store

For all the retro gamers and fanatics out there! From the makers of Astro Wars, Galaxy Invader and other retro handheld/tabletop emulations comes this classic handheld space-invader style game originally created by Bandai and Sears: Missile Invader (or Missile Vader). Screenshots show actual app in action. See how close to the real thing it is!

This is classic retro brought back from the 80's. This was one of the first handheld games with very simple game-play. Just dodge and fire. Be quick though as they fight back with vengeance! This is a 99% accurate recreation. Every detail has been recreated. All the sounds and graphics have been faithfully reproduced apart from one minor alteration and that was the addition of an extra duplicate fire button. We kept the original position for the purists but the extra one make it easier to fire on an iPad. These types of machines were made by companies such as Grandstand, Tomy, Entex, CGL, Tandy, Bandai and Epoch to name but a few.
