Space Invaders Frenzy is EVERYWHERE right now.  I saw it at 5 different arcades just this past weekend.  Fun game but it gets so difficult so fast that you can't get more than a minute out of it.

Now that looks fun. Love the retro vibe to it and computer voice.

I'm sure I'd only last 30 seconds but that's all i ever did on most games when i was 10 so I'd like to have a go of that. Is it anywhere in the south of U.K.?

He posted two different games.  This is the arcade game.  The display really is striking.  It's like eight feet tall.

Looks like a combination of space invaders and missile command.  Not that it's a bad thing.

Well no casino game was around, and the game is probably in the Aventure dome and you have to be mad max to survive all those kids in there.

The game looks very familiar,  and I have seen this before somewhere...

   Jennifer got to play one last night! :applaud: .... It seemed very pixelated and big, you had to look up at it, and hard to see because your sitting so close, as a result only got to play it once before getting dizzy, But oh my, the gun was like a super tailgunner style lazer or something and streamed destruction on those pesky monsters.

5 arcades, eh?  Are they all in Canada and we've never heard of them?

Three at Weirs Beach in NH, Funspot about a mile up the road from there, and Salem Willows in MA.  We hit all of them that weekend.

They have it at Level 257 in Schaumburg, IL and I saw it last year at The Wilderness  in the Wisconsin Dells. The game is designed to last under a minute.

Is it a design issue or do the prison hooch and the spoiled meats play a large factor?

I played this with my kid today.
got real hard real fast.
we did not last long. LOL!

Then i took a close look, the "screen" is actually composed of a lot of very very bright RGB LED's.

At the top of the play field is what looks like an infrared light bar and under the laser guns is some more IR stuff.
It got a lot cooler to me when i saw it was an LED display.

It is a display made out of a matrix of individual LEDs.
