  • Summary: In Astrosmash you control a cannon weapon that can scroll left or right along a flat plane in order to target falling objects, such as large or small meteors, large or small spinning bombs, and guided missiles, as well as a UFO that crosses the screen from time to time at higher levels. LowIn Astrosmash you control a cannon weapon that can scroll left or right along a flat plane in order to target falling objects, such as large or small meteors, large or small spinning bombs, and guided missiles, as well as a UFO that crosses the screen from time to time at higher levels. Low hills and stars are seen in the background.

    This reimagined new ASTROSMASH is much more exciting, more visually appealing, and a bit more challenging without straying from the game's original theme and gameplay. The new graphics are phenomenal and the amazing background music adds excitement to this video game classic. Plus, ASTROSMASH now allows co-op and versus gameplay for up to four players! These players could play locally or online - even cross platform - with each other.

    2023’s Astrosmash feels like the product of an industry that’s increasingly favoring profitability over artistic expression. Yes, it vaguely plays like the original, looks less pixelated, and now has obligatory power-ups, effectively checking off the minimum qualifications for any update. But for fans of Mattel’s ground-based shooter, it’s a missed opportunity to truly honor a classic.
