Venture into the ominous caves of the celestial planet of Mars as you take on the challenge of the new 2D action space shooter game, The Caves Of Mars.
Embark on a mission to explore the Tharsis, a rugged and lofty region on Mars, where numerous caves have been stumbled upon. Each cave holds precious gems guarded by nefarious enemies and formidable alien life forms. Destroy these enemies and collect as many gems as possible to increase your health and earn points. The more gems you gather and enemies you slay, the more bonus points you receive.
Experience 100 randomly generated cave levels, all varying in size, complexity, and obstructions. With each level reached, the challenges intensify, as yRise Of Apolloou encounter more sophisticated enemies, aliens, and obstacles.
Control your spacecraft by tilting your device in the direction you wish to go. If you prefer an on-screen controller, you can easily enable this in the settings. Fire at the enemy by tapping the screen.
With each level you pass, you will come face to face with various enemies. While some are stationary, others form a pattern, or wave, of follow-and-attack spacecraft. Those with greater power will require multiple hits to destroy.
Watch out for the enemy boss spacecraft. They possess some of the keycards necessary to proceed through the game, so make sure you come equipped with the right weapons to collect the keycards.
Beware of the alien life forms as they make their attack on you. Some may jump, fly, and even throw lightning bolts.
To refuel your health, collect fuel. Be on the lookout for vessels containing Weapons and Shield Power-ups that can be collected to enhance your spacecraft. Each power-up you collect will change your spacecraft's appearance, and you'll be able to switch power-ups on and off to best suit your situation.
Restricting access to certain areas is the Laser Doors, and obtaining the Key Cards is a must to unlock them. Study the map as each Key Card's location is marked to assist in your progress. Beware of Laser Beams, which switch on and off. Successfully navigate through as they turn on and off in sequence.
As if the game wasn't challenging enough, players must also navigate their way through moving platforms throughout the caves. Venture through these unfamiliar territories, hone your skills and make the most of the power-ups to emerge victoriously.
