Geometry Wars: Galaxies

System: Wii Release date: 18/01/2008

Blast-off on a mission to save the galaxy in turbo-charged DS adventure Geometry Wars: Galaxies. In the style of an old school arcade blaster, Geometry Wars: Galaxies launches you into a high speed battle with alien space ships as you try to save solar systems from destruction.

Your intergalactic combat will take place in 60 unique areas known as Battle Grids. Clearing a Battle Grid of enemies will require speed and concentration as you shoot down wave after wave of hostile life-forms with high-powered weaponry! You’ll have some help along the way from your Battle Drone – a flying sidekick that can be programmed to defend you or attack everything in sight. The drone will also help you to collect the Geom currency that appears during battle. The more Geoms you have, the more heavy duty artillery you can attach to your Battle Drone before entering the next grid.

Geometry Wars: Galaxies includes a number of different options for how to control the in-game action. You can guide your ship with the +Control Pad or opt to use the Touch Screen and Stylus. If you decide to use the Touch Screen, you’ll also have the option of using the stylus to dictate either the ship’s movement or where to direct your firepower. On top of the multiple customization options, Geometry Wars: Galaxies uses other unique features of the DS; even calling on you to blow into the microphone in order to shake enemies that are slowing you down!

The game includes a number of multiplayer options that let you battle with a friend or work alongside them to save the day. The wireless capabilities of the DS also mean you can connect to the Internet via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection and share your high scores with the world in online leaderboards. If you own the DS and Wii versions of Geometry Wars: Galaxies, connecting both systems wirelessly will unlock new content – with new battle grids appearing in both versions of the game.

  • Fend off alien invasions in 60 unique Battle Grids as you try to save the solar system from destruction.
  • Control your ship with the +Control Pad or by using the Touch Screen, and blow into the DS microphone to fend off certain enemies.
  • Share your high scores with the world in online leaderboards via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection and connect your DS to your Wii to unlock new grids if you own both versions of the game.
