The guide

Overview

Is a top down shooter game where a ship will have to resist as much as possible the attack of monsters that will appear more and more frequently. The ship is anchored in the center of the screen and can turn on itself to shoot monsters that will be of five different types, from the least dangerous encountered at the beginning to the most dangerous in the following levels. The game is divided into waves and each of them will have a longer duration than the previous one. Each destroyed monster will drop coins that they can be spent in the shop between waves to upgrade the ship. The aim of the game is to kill as many monsters as possible while resisting as many waves as possible

What it's like to play

Shooting games are about aim and timing, and not much else gets in the way. Targets appear, you point and fire, they disappear or they shoot back. Ammo matters. Position matters. Some games are side-on with waves of enemies, others put the crosshair in the middle of the screen. Either way, a session is a steady escalation until your reflexes run out.

How to play

1Find the fire and aim controls on the start screen; usually the mouse aims and clicks fire on desktop, and tapping the target fires on phones.
2Shoot the nearest or fastest threat first, not the biggest. Big targets usually take several hits anyway.
3Reload or switch weapons during quiet moments rather than in the middle of a wave.
4Keep moving if the game allows it. A stationary player is the easiest target in any shooter.

Why it's worth a go

Monster Assault is a sharp, focused test of aim that runs free in the browser with no download or login. Sessions are short and intense. It is a good way to spend ten minutes if you want something that pushes back, and there is nothing to clean up when you are done.
