About

Missile attack, later rebranded as Battlestar Galactica: Space Alert, is a dedicated handheld action game in which the player must fight incoming missiles (Cylon Raiders in the re-release). To win, the player must intercept 20 of them. The player can move to three positions and fire counter missiles (laser torpedoes in the re-release). In practice, it comes down to red dots descending onto the playfield and the player having to move their own red dot in their path before pressing the fire button to launch it upwards. If it hits, the enemy is intercepted.
