🎮 Play Space Invaders Sv Version Rev 2 Online (Arcade)

Space Invaders SV Version Rev 2 is a specific hardware revision of the seminal 1978 arcade shooter developed by Taito. This browser-playable version accurately preserves one of the original arcade ROM sets (labeled “SV” on the physical chips) of the game that defined the shoot-’em-up genre. You control a laser base defending Earth from relentless, descending waves of extraterrestrial ships that march faster as their numbers dwindle.

How to Play

Your objective is to destroy all alien ships on the screen before they reach the bottom, which results in an immediate game over. You can take cover behind four defensive bunkers, but they will gradually degrade as they take fire from both the aliens and your own cannon.

• Movement: Left and Right Arrow Keys
• Fire: Z or X
• Insert Coin: Shift
• Start: Enter

Gameplay Tips

• Count your shots: The Mystery Ship (UFO) that occasionally flies across the top of the screen awards a variable amount of points, but hitting it on exactly your 23rd shot (and every 15th shot thereafter) guarantees the maximum 300 points.
• Manage your cover: Bunkers are useful for hiding, but you can also blast small holes through them yourself to create safe firing channels against the aliens.
• Leave the highest targets for last: The alien horde speeds up based on how many ships remain. By taking out the lowest rows first, you increase the distance their projectiles have to travel, giving you more time to dodge as the game accelerates.
