Don't take it lightly, this is hardcore game
This game, although presented in 2d, it successfully retain the horror atmosphere. Also this bring back memory of Contra series. Good job SEGA team

Awesome and old school.
As an older gamer who grew up watching the Alien movies I was looking forward to this game. I still love 2D shooters and have enjoyed Wayforward games before (such as Contra DS) so I'm happy to report that this game was a lot of fun.

The game has the atmosphere of the series with all the sound effects in order and a feeling of claustrophobia. The blasting action is satisfying, though the controls take a little time before you are accustomed. For example, using the touchscreen to reload is fiddly.

The game has a fixed cast of marines all with their own personalities, comments and replies. Additional play-through attempts are required to see them all. The player starts with 4 marines. Losing a marine sees them actually dead, so functionally they are a lives system. Additional marines (extra lives) can be found throughout the game, though a new marine will only join if there is currently less the 4 marines in your squad. In many cases you will able to return later to recruit if necessary.

The game plays out similar to a Metroid game of old. Locations are shut off until the correct piece of equipment is found allowing progression. This comparison to a 'metroidvania' may sound like a substantial game, but it is actually quite short; I finished it in little over 5 hours. Still I recommend it for anybody into the style of game described and say it is a must have for Aliens fans. There is little else like it on the DS, the game is quite challenging and I know I will play it again (particularly on long flights!).
