Tap Invaders ($0.99)
Version – 1.0
Review – “A unique combination of action and music games!”
This is a game that is a little bit hard to describe at first. It has a feel kind of like the Guitar Hero genre of gaming, but instead of playing guitar you’re destroying the “invaders” to music. The result of this combination makes this game fast-paced and exciting to watch as well as play!
When you open up Tap Invaders for the first time you’ll be prompted to either sign into your OpenFeint account or to create a new one. In case you’re unfamiliar with it, OpenFeint is a 
social gaming network that allows you to compete with other people around the world, as well as make friends and enemies!
Once you get past the initial OpenFeint login screen, the first thing you’ll see is the main menu. The menu is nothing flashy, just a simple background with some basic options to get you started. You can set a few basic “Options” by touching the menu option at the bottom of the screen. 
You’ll find sliders to control the music and sound effects volume independently, as well as a brief description of the in-game screen.
Once you’re ready to get started playing there are three difficulties that you can select from the menu, “easy,” “medium,” and “hard.” While you can’t really “fail” this game like you can in Guitar Hero, I would definitely recommend that you start your first game on Easy because there is a significant amount of difference in difficulty!
the main gameplay screen consists of three buttons at the bottom with targets above them. touching any of these buttons will fire a projectile at the target above that button. The object of the game is to time it so that you shoot the ships that fall from above. this is easier said than done!
As you play you’ll quickly find that the two buttons on the outside fire projectiles that move slower, but have a longer range. The center button fires a laser looking beam that moves very quickly but just barely makes it to the target. The difference in timing between these is not overly complicated, but at the same time it definitely makes it more difficult!
Overall the fast-paced action in this game will make it worth it for some people, but not for everyone. With only 3 levels the replay value of this game is not great, but it does offer the online leader board powered by OpenFeint and a smooth gameplay experience. Even though this app could use some more levels, I’d encourage you to check out the embedded video and see for yourself that this app is worth the $0.99 price tag!
