Can I play Angry Cockroach on a phone?

Usually yes. Tap to shoot works well on a touchscreen, and many shooters add on-screen movement controls. A mouse is more precise on desktop.

Why does the game feel too fast?

Shooters ramp up quickly. Focus on the nearest threat only and let the rest wait. Difficulty tends to feel more manageable once you stop trying to clear everything at once.

Does it track my high score?

Many shooting games store a best score in your browser on that device. It will not transfer to another device, since there is no account.

The guide

Overview

Angry Cockroach is a bright 2D physics-destruction game where the kitchen fights back. Pull an equipped cockroach into a handmade launcher, aim, and release it into increasingly fortified cartoon structures. Smash materials, chain combos, trigger close-up special moves, and defeat every animated pest-control guard before the roster runs out. Eighteen raids, ten upgradeable cockroaches, seven limited-use gadgets, daily XP rewards, saved progression, and optional rewarded continues create a replayable campaign on desktop, tablet, and mobile.

What it's like to play

Point, fire, move. A shooting game trains those three into a reflex within the first minute, then spends the rest of the session making them harder. Enemies arrive faster, take more hits, and come from angles you did not expect. Ammunition or cooldowns keep you from simply holding the trigger. Rounds are short, and the score at the end is a fair record of how sharp you were.

How to play

1Start a round and fire a few shots at nothing to see your rate of fire and how the aim behaves.
2Prioritise enemies that are about to fire or reach you over those further away.
3Watch your ammo or heat gauge and reload or pause during gaps between waves.
4Learn where enemies spawn from and pre-aim at those points a moment before they appear.

Why it's worth a go
