About this game

Captain Fizz Meets The Blaster-Trons is an arcade puzzle shooter set on the invaded planet Icarus. Players must reach the lift at the end of each of 20 stacked levels to save its people.

The game is designed around simultaneous two-player action, with each player occupying half of the screen. Levels combine long corridors and maze-like layouts with colour-coded locked doors and doors that can only be used in one direction.

Both the heroes and the aliens carry lethal lasers, although players can survive several hits before dying.
