Avenger is a Space Invaders clone published on cartridge[1] by Commodore in 1981 for the VIC-20. The game uses multicolor graphics[2] and supports keyboard or joystick control.[3] The player starts with three bases (lives) and gets a new base at 1500 points.[2]

A year later it was released for the Commodore 64.[4]

Reception

In Creative Computing, David Busch wrote, "Those who have played hundreds of games of Space Invaders on many different computer systems will probably tire of this rather quickly."[2]

Reviewing the German release under "Alpha-Alarm" title, TeleMatch magazine compared the gameplay with Space Invaders from Atari as easy and not so thoughtful.[5]
