Alien Brigade

Alien Brigade

Released1990
Alien Brigade is a side scrolling shooter similar to Operation Wolf. Aliens have arrived on earth and have brainwashed both soldiers and civilians in order to take over the world. Your job is to stop them! On each of the five levels you will have a different objective to complete, including saving civilians and destroying alien installations. Throughout the levels there will be numerous aliens and brainwashed people you will need to shoot, as well as attacking tanks, helicopters, and more. After shooting enemies a bonus may sometimes be left behind; if you shoot this, you can earn additional ammo, more powerful weapons, or increased health. If you don't shoot fast enough and are hit by enemy fire your health will slowly decrease; the game ends when all of your health is gone.

About This Game

A covert military unit discovers that extraterrestrial entities have replaced soldiers within the Army's ranks, disguising themselves as ordinary personnel. Players command this specialized task force through intense combat zones to root out the alien impostors before they can consolidate their foothold on Earth. Along the way, operatives must scavenge for advanced weaponry, liberate captured hostages, and navigate relentless waves of hostile creatures determined to overwhelm them. Success means humanity's survival; failure means assimilation into the very alien force they're fighting against.
