Our take on Starship Wars
Instead of using a single linear campaign, the game splits its structure across a 35-level Adventure Mode, an Infinite Mode, and a Survival Mode. Its progression also ties combat rewards to purchases of ships, shots, and mini ships.
What is Starship Wars?
Starship Wars is an action shooter with three modes: Infinite Mode, Adventure Mode with 35 levels, and Survival Mode.
Players move in four directions to dodge enemy attacks, destroy enemies and bosses, collect crystals, and gather upgrades. Crystals can be spent in a store on stronger starships, special shots, and mini ships. The game includes more than 80 shot types and several enemy and boss varieties. Its progression combines level-based play in Adventure Mode with endurance-focused and open-ended challenges in the other modes.
