Synopsis

NovaStrike is a top-down arcade shooter in which the player takes control of a prototype advanced Scythe fighter and combats invading aliens over various planetary surfaces. The player fights both air and ground opponents ranging from enemy fighters to capital ships and ultimately an end-Boss. As the player progresses the Scythe unlocks its full potential through upgrading its weapon systems and overall capabilities.

Review Scores

Although the harsh difficulty and lack of multiplayer may offset some potential players, NovaStrike’s open areas and unique mission structure are reason enough to give it a shot.

Pros

+ Not another “dual analog” top-down shooter
+ Open, go-anywhere levels
+ Unique mission structure

Cons

- Overly demanding difficulty
- Lack of cooperative functionality

7.5
