Grab The Games: It came from space, and ate our brains

It came from space, and ate our brains' is an Arcade top down shooter with horde survival gameplay. The brain slurping aliens are only vulnerable to bullets. Using your flashlight, environment and special powers you have a better chance to take care of the unwanted pink guests. Triangle Studios focused on creating a unique atmospheric setting, addicting and straightforward gameplay, which can be played cooperatively.

Your name is Jerry, a no-nonsense kind of guy equipped with a flashlight and knowledge about how to handle a weapon. You somehow managed to survive the invasion of a merciless alien species, the kind that feeds on human brain. Things look bad when you wander the city and other locations. You are looking for gear and weapons to survive, as pink light emitting aliens try to corner you and eat your brain.


You realize there is only one thing left to do: set a new high score and die like a badass. The game is really worth playing with a sense of nostalgia from the old arcade shooter games we all loved. One of the first aspects I loved in this game is that this title focuses on the horde survival aspect which is great and well given. Moreover, there are a lot of weapons you can get your hands on including grenade launcher, shotgun etc and they can all be upgraded and become more deadly and help you throughout your mission.


There is also a huge variety of aliens which you can kill in 6 beautiful and well designed levels that create an atmosphere of mystery, darkness and fear. Furthermore I loved the fact that this game supports multiplayer with up to 4 players and another great aspect is that in the near feature local co-op will be added. I tried really hard to find some negative aspects but honestly I can't find a reason why someone shouldn't play this game. If I had to mention one is that I would like some cut- scenes that will unfold the story of the game. I think this would add more depth to the game and attract more people that love story based games.

To sum it all up, this game is surprising addictive, easy to pick up and really hard to master but it is so worth it! Highly recommended by the whole grabthegames team! Triangle Studios have done an amazing work!


Verdict: 9/10
