Save from Aliens II

Alien waves are closing in and your blaster's the only thing standing between them and the last humans. Every second counts.

I'll admit it — Save from Aliens II doesn't pretend to be anything fancy. You get a small arena, a blaster, and wave after wave of aliens that want you dead. That's it. But there's a reason I kept coming back: the movement feels tight, and when you thread a gap between two green attackers while charging a shot, it hits that old-school arcade itch perfectly. The screen fills up fast with enemies that drift, dive, and sometimes split, so you're constantly flicking between dodging and firing. Controls are dead simple — arrows to move, space to shoot on keyboard; tap the on-screen arrows and tap the screen to shoot on mobile. It sounds basic, but the real skill comes from managing space. Corners are death traps. The aliens don't just chase; they swarm in arcs that punish greedy shooting. I had my best runs when I stopped spamming and started kiting the pack into a loose circle, firing only when at least three lined up. You don't get health back, so every hit matters more than it should. The second entry adds more alien types than the first — some rush, some hang back and spit, and a few bigger ones soak up shots before splitting. The difficulty ramps at a pace that feels fair until it isn't, and then you're one misstep from restart. If you like bite-sized arcade action that doesn't hold your hand, this one's worth a few runs. Just don't expect mercy.

Arrow keys to move, spacebar to shoot. On screen arrows to move, tap screen to shoot.

Keep moving in wide loops instead of backing into corners — aliens love trapping you against the wall. Line up enemies before firing to conserve shots, since there's no ammo pickup early. On mobile, tap the far side of the screen to shoot while your other thumb handles movement. Save your space for when the pack clumps together; spamming it leaves you open during the firing pause. Watch the edges — most spawns come from top and bottom, so don't hug them. Learn which alien type rushes first and take it out before it splits into smaller pests.
