Play Cash Invaders Online

Cash Invaders is a scrolling shooter game released in 2002 for the MS-DOS platform. The game falls within the arcade and sci-fi shooter genres, featuring a futuristic setting where players engage in combat against alien forces.

Players control a spaceship tasked with surviving through one hundred progressively difficult levels. The primary objective is to defeat waves of alien enemies while navigating the scrolling environment. A central gameplay system involves collecting in-game currency, which is used to purchase temporary power-ups such as machine guns, shields, boomerangs, and extra lives. These enhancements diminish over time, requiring continuous collection and expenditure of funds to maintain combat effectiveness. Progression is structured in sets of ten levels, with a bonus stage appearing after each set where players must shoot numbered aliens in a specific sequence to earn additional points.

The challenges intensify as the game advances, introducing enemy variants with increased strength, speed, and kamikaze attack patterns. Certain levels feature faster scrolling speeds that can outpace the player's ship unless a speed boost power-up is acquired. The game tracks performance through a high score list that records the dates scores were achieved, providing a record of player progression.
