About Earth Attack
The fate of the Earth hangs in the balance as a coalition of malevolent planets invades the Solar System, threatening destruction with each passing moment. However, our planet is not going down without a fight! In a thrilling twist of events, the Earth retaliates, supported by the Moon in its bold campaign to defend their home. As players, you ll
The genre lives on waves or levels that build up, enemies with distinct behaviours and precise aiming. Earth Attack understands that, and it shows in the first minute of play. Playing it works your situational awareness and resource management, which is a large part of why the "one more round" feeling is so strong.

- Press the play button above and wait for Earth Attack to finish loading. On first load this can take a few seconds while the game files are fetched.

Tips and tricks
- If there is a reload, reload during quiet moments — never in the middle of a wave.
- Prioritise the threat that will hurt you soonest, not the one that is closest or biggest. Fast enemies before slow ones, shooters before melee.
- Sound tells you where an enemy is before you can see it. Headphones help more than you would expect.
- Keep your cursor or crosshair roughly where enemies appear, not on the spot where the last one died.
- Because this is a Kids game, younger children do better with a mouse or touch screen than with keyboard combinations.
Who will enjoy it
We would recommend Earth Attack to players who like precision, quick targeting and progressively tougher waves. A typical session is levels of a few minutes each, with longer runs in survival modes. Difficulty-wise it is approachable at first, with a steep climb in the later waves. The controls are tap and drag based, which makes it comfortable on touch screens as well as with a mouse.
