Released: 1991
Laser Invasion is a mixed-genre action game that uses the NES Zapper for certain sections.
+ Missile types and optional equipment can be chosen prior to take-off, which allows players to form their own strategies.
+ Gun shooting works great with the Zapper, as well as a d-pad thanks to a speedy reticle and generous hit-boxes.
+ 3D maze section could easily have been an entire game in its own right, and having to locate items to survive is fun.
+ Stage 2's escape finale is exhilarating and the twists and turns through narrow corridors gets the adrenaline pumping.
- Difficulty could deter some players, as it's sky-high from the outset and the time limits in the maze areas are strict.
- Helicopter sections don't feel integral to the gameplay, as you can avoid combat and head straight to a map icon.
