Gameplay

Titan Attacks! is heavily based on Space Invaders in overall format, but more fast-paced than the latter game. The player controls a tank and must shoot at enemies moving back and forth at the top of the screen, who sometimes shoot back with lasers and bombs.

The player also collects money, which they can use to buy tank upgrades to increase the power of their tank. This includes a more powerful gun and defensive energy that protects the player from attacks.

Story

The player is the last surviving tank commander on Earth, and must defend the planet from an onslaught of aliens from the moon Titan.

Reception

The game received mixed reviews from critics, and holds an aggregate score of 74/100 for the PS4 version on Metacritic.

Colin Moriarty of IGN rated the game 74/100, calling the game "unapologetically old-school" and a "fun time-waster", though he criticized the fact that it didn't attempt to break any new ground.
