This space invaders game has superb visual effects that possess almost a three-dimensional quality. To defend yourself (and Earth) you must guard an area two screen-widths across using sophisticated tracking devices including forward radar, a proximity meter and an altimeter. The alien ships grow and display increasingly fine detail as they approach, and explode with wonderful realism. But even after being hit they can dispatch plasma bombs with deadly accuracy, so be careful. 3D-Orbiter is difficult and requires a cool head and good coordination, but it is very exciting and will provide hours of fun.
