Space Invaders The Online Slot

If you were a big fan of arcade games a few years ago then the chances are that names like Space Invaders, Asteroids and Frogger are enough to send a tingle down your spine and set you off wondering where your old Atari console ended up.

The good news is that one of those games is getting made into a modern online slots game by FreeMantleMedia Enterprises, and it is the one that involves shields which get destroyed bit by bit and lines of aliens that come down ever quicker to get you.

That’s right, the all time classics Space Invaders game is finally to make it into online casinos as a slots game. One look at this 1978 arcade classic is enough to get a lot of people wandering down memory lane, and it is sure to inspire a popular slots game too.

An Iconic Game

The design company doing the work is Square Enix Ltd and the official word from the developers is that the “iconic and globally recognised” Space Invaders game will be making its first appears as an online slot later this year on the OpenBet and GTS platforms.

It will apparently be targeted at UK and continental European players who want an exciting slot with a great retro feel. FreeMantle Media Enterprises have brought us title like The Price is Right, Family Fortunes and The X Factor in the past.

An exact release date hasn’t been announced yet, so we will keep our eyes open for more news on this game as 2012 progresses.
