Play Alien Soldier Online

Alien Soldier throws you right into the chaos as Epsilon-Eagle, a rogue mutant leader fighting his old crew gone bad. The first thing you do? Pick four weapons from six options—I remember staring at that screen way too long, trying to guess which combo would wreck Xi-Tiger’s forces best. (Spoiler: the flamethrower’s a solid pick.)

This isn’t your typical run-and-gun. You’ll teleport around like a maniac, and if you’re at full health, suddenly turn into a screen-clearing phoenix. Most levels are just quick sprints to prep for the real stars: the bosses. Each one’s a puzzle—dodge their wild attack patterns, figure out their weak spot, and try not to burn through all your ammo. The side-scrolling bits? Basically just breathing room between those insane fights.

It’s brutal, flashy, and makes you feel like a mutant powerhouse once you get the rhythm down. Just don’t expect to beat it in one sitting.
