Inspired by the automaton of the same name, this version was created. The normal resolution of 40 x 25 characters per screen has been increased to 80 x 50 with the help of the quarter-point graphics, thus already enabling a quite realistic gaming experience.

You have to defend yourself against attacking aliens. Your spaceship is located at the bottom of the screen. You start with 5 spaceships and can get an additional one at 20,000 points and every 70,000 points. In each wave of attacks, the aliens first try to reach their position in the upper half of the screen. When all the aliens have arrived at their positions, the attack begins.

Your spaceship can be destroyed by bombs or collisions. There are 3 different attackers.
