Invasion From Beyond

About

Invasion From Beyond is a fast paced shooter where you pilot a ship to thwart an alien invasion. With over 30 missions the game mixes straightforward combat with puzzle like objectives. Your ship comes equipped with a radar cargo hold and the Suck O Matic a quirky tool for moving items and completing tasks. Missions often require balancing firepower and strategy as you navigate through secret levels and upgrade weapons. The Suck O Matic stands out as a gameplay staple adding a layer of creativity to missions. The B movie inspired plot about crop circles and alien abductions keeps the tone light. While the 1998 release shows its age the blend of action and problem solving remains engaging. Players often note the variety of hidden content and the challenge of mastering the ship’s systems.

Storyline

The story for Invasion From Beyond is based on the golden age of B-Movie science fiction thrillers, and goes like this: farm workers have been abducted and crop circles were discovered in farmlands outside Washington, D.C.. The locals' insults towards superstitious fears ("Slap an Alien") were a welcome party for the Martians ready to strike. You are a fully qualified Earthlink and must pilot your ship to stop the alien invasion by manipulating the ground-based firepower of Earthlink Command and prevent the aliens from taking over our beloved planet Earth.
