More about this game

Whack a Alien! is a fast-paced arcade game where you must tap aliens before their 1320-millisecond timer runs out and they escape. Green aliens take one hit, purple aliens take two, and red mega aliens take three. The game speeds up by a factor of 0.94 with each level, dropping the spawn gap from 920 to 350 milliseconds. Hitting a blue hostage or letting an alien escape costs one of your three lives. The game ends when you run out of lives.

Tips

  • Focus on the red mega aliens first, as they require three hits to defeat and can easily escape if you ignore them while their timer runs down.
  • Watch out carefully for the blue human hostages, which have a 22 percent chance of spawning in one of the twelve holes instead of a normal alien target.
  • The game speeds up as your score increases and levels advance, so stay alert and prepare for the spawn gap to eventually drop to its minimum of 350 milliseconds.

FAQ

How many lives do I have?
You start every run with exactly three lives. You will lose one life if you accidentally hit a blue human hostage or if you let any alien escape its hole.
What happens when I score points?
As you score points, your level increases and the game speeds up. Purple aliens unlock at 5 points, and red mega aliens unlock at 14 points, adding more challenge.
How do I defeat the different aliens?
Green aliens take one hit, purple aliens take two hits, and red mega aliens take three hits to defeat. You must land all required hits before their lifetime timer expires.
