ALPHAZAP tm is an arcade style word game in which players must shoot letters. When the game begins, you are given 4 ships. Each ship is loaded with 13 missles. Each letter you hit uses a missle. When you shoot the letters in an order that spells a words, those letters are removed and your missle supply is replenished. Your ship is destroyed if your use up all your missles or are hit by a falling bomb. The game ends if all your ships are destroyed or the letters make it to the bottom of the screen. During the game, bonuses are occassionally dropped. You must catch these to claim them. These may be a shield that will protect you from falling bombs, or extra missles.
Our Review: AlphaZap is an educational/arcade game similar to the classic arcade game Galaxian. The objective is to shoot the letters before they shoot you. Forming words will give bonus points. The interface and controls are fairly standard, and easy to use. Great to play as a pastime at home and at work.
