Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to plaster as many politicians and their henchmen with pies as you can. The politicians, who don't really like getting blasted in the face with a pie, will drop bombs on you. The bombs will do you great bodily harm, so you would be wise to avoid them. The game plays similarly to "Space Invaders" with a touch of galaxian or galaga, and with some fun and unique twists. There are numerous different kinds of powerups, giving you additional shields, hull plating, and more missile launchers and special weapons. Political Invaders features 100 different and unique levels, and several different kinds of foes. The game is challenging, but the difficulty can be set so that both novice and expert gamers can have just the right game feel. You can play with keyboard, mouse, joystick, or gamepad. This game is designed with political satire in mind, and hence we tend to make fun of the political figures contained within, calling them silly names and such. We have attempted to be fair and balanced, and pick on the left and the right equally. In addition to american politicians, you can also choose to pie world leaders if you desire. Please don't take offense if we make fun of your particular political heroes. We do not endorse one political figure, candidate, or party over any other. We encourage you to make those choices for yourself. Features 3D rendered graphics, and requires DirectX 9.0 or greater. Now features coverate of the United States Election 2008 Presidential Hopefuls!
