How to play Planet Invasion

The rules land within the first few seconds of play. The controls are listed in full in the table below — there are only a handful of them. The game runs in portrait, so on a phone you can play one-handed, and on desktop it stays centred rather than stretched out of shape. If a round goes badly, restart — attempts are cheap and it is usually the fastest way to improve.

Why it is worth playing
