Players control a spaceship at the bottom of the screen, tasked with shooting down waves of alien enemies that swoop down in formations. It features simple yet challenging gameplay, typical of early console adaptations of arcade games, and is known for its retro charm and addictive gameplay loop of shooting and dodging enemy fire.
This is the primary genre for "Galaxian". The gameplay involves controlling a spaceship and shooting down waves of alien enemies that descend towards the player. Like its arcade counterpart, the Atari 2600 version of "Galaxian" focuses on quick, action-packed gameplay typical of arcade-style games.
