all of the invaders before
they land. If they reach
your shield line (Earth
line), your game ends.
Left and Right Screens
Space Invader has two
screens, shown by an “L”
or an “R” next to your
score on the upper right
hand side. The “L” indi-
cates you’re on the left
screen. The “R” indicates
you’re on the right screen.
Points Scored
You’ll receive 100 points
for each invader you kill in
the bottom rows, and 200
points for killing invaders
on the top row. When a
UFO appears, you’ll hear
an alert sound. If you elim-
inate a UFO, you get 400
points.
Levels of Play
To pass to a higher level,
you must shoot down all of
the invaders on your “L”
and “R” screens. Once you
pass to a higher level, the
cannons available to you
flash on the lower part of
your screen. The new level
you are in is displayed at
the upper left hand corner.
The higher the level, the
more difficult the game,
because the invaders will
shoot more frequently at
your cannon.
Game Ends
If you lose, “GAME
OVER” appears on the
upper left-hand side of
your screen. To begin a
new game, press
START or
FIRE twice. If you don’t
wish to start again, turn the
unit off and close the
screen.
Pause and Automatic
Shutoff
If you interrupt a game by
pressing PAUSE, the unit
will stay on until you
resume your game. If you
leave your Space Invader
turned on, it will automati-
cally shut off after 3.5 min-
utes.
