The Attack is a game written by Tom Pettingill for the TI-99/4A personal computer and published by Texas Instruments in 1981. The game was originally developed at Milton Bradley as Alien, based on the 1979 movie of the same name.

Game Play

The player in a spaceship must use their weapons to blast apart "spores" that connect together to form new aliens, and blast already formed aliens before they eat the player. There are incubators on screen that will release more spores, or in later levels, aliens.
