About this Game
Missile Command has been revamped and improved for a new generation. In the Classic mode, the player must protect a set of cities from missiles that rain down from the sky, while the Ultimate mode retains the same gameplay but is set in a 3D environment. After a few levels, the player will attack a mother ship that is responsible for the unprovoked attacks. You've got to try to save the Earth from an alien invasion in Missile Command.
