About game
Rail travel usually brings peace but here you fight off an alien invasion while defending your locomotive. Keeping your train safe from the UFO fleet means you must aim dual cannons with precision to trigger massive explosions. You navigate through 10 boss battles where every flying saucer counts toward your final score. Upgrading your damage output and health remains vital as the waves of enemies grow relentless. You can experiment with different combinations like the machine gun and rocket launcher to see what destroys the invaders fastest. Unlocking special abilities provides a tactical edge when the screen fills with hostile ships. Endless mode keeps the action rolling for those who want to push their high scores to the limit.
