It was written by Yahoo Software of Los Angeles, California.[1][2] Along with Star Trek, CatChum, and Ladder, Aliens was one of the games that came with the early Kaypro computers.
Gameplay
[edit]The game runs in text mode; the aliens are made of letters and punctuation marks. Each level was given a name, displayed on top of the screen, such as "Blood Bath" and "We Come in Peace."
