Galactic Wars is a 1-player space-themed arcade game for the Apple II, comprising a galaxy of the Krillians and the Centrons who have developed a complex technology. The player controls a small rocket ship which can move slowly horizontally on the bottom of the screen. On the top of the screen are a number of alien saucers which rain laser blasts upon the player. In between these combatants lies a rapidly moving asteroid field that can block fire. If the player destroys all enemy vessels, they advance to a more difficult stage. The goal is to maximize score, and points are awarded for destroying alien ships. The player has 3 rockets, and it's game over when all are lost.
