"In the early 1980s, it was not uncommon to find console games that were heavily inspired by arcade games of the time. One such game was 1981's Astrosmash for the Intellivision console. It combined gameplay elements from Space Invaders and Asteroids, and was apparently well-liked by Intellivision players. This year, BBG Entertainment unleashed its own Astrosmash remake onto consoles and PC. The remake isn’t very ambitious, but it does seem to faithfully capture the gameplay of the original," says Co-Optimus.
Know the beast that you’re getting: ASTROSMASH is a coin-op classic that’s been given a razzle-dazzle visual improvement, four-player co-op, as well as reams of graphical and gameplay options.
Intellivision Amico's loss is now a gain for shooter fans.
ASTROSMASH is available right now on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch and PC, attempting to gather the shoot 'em up fans together.
