The game could have been great if it weren't for this one mission... if I remember correctly, it's the fifth. What's up with that?! Did theThe game could have been great if it weren't for this one mission... if I remember correctly, it's the fifth. What's up with that?! Did the developers smoke something that day and forgot to change it again? That was really completely unnecessary and completely frustrated me. A look at the videos on YouTube then showed that it was almost impossible to do it. Shame on you!

Attack of the Earthlings is by no means a bad game — its personality and anti-capitalist, anti-human stance works, and the ideas underlying the mechanics are well-thought-out. Unfortunately, the execution, lack of optimization and muddy presentation undermine a title that was already going to struggle in a genre well-stocked with plenty of superlative examples.

If lastability and replay value are the sacrifices needed for tight and innovative design, then Attack of the Earthlings signals a welcome change in a saturated genre. I for one welcome our new insect overlords.

For the most part the game does a great job at being a strategic and thought-provoking turn-based strategy game. And the humour provides an excellent layer of polish and enthusiasm which makes playing Attack of the Earthlings much more enjoyable.

While Attack of the Earthlings is aiming to be more casual than its counterparts, its gameplay really is too simple to be interesting for more than a few minutes. This, mixed with the criminally awkward and slow animations, makes the game little more than a chore, broken up a few some decent jokes.
