Galaxy Wars is a fixed shooter arcade game developed by Universal in 1979 and published by Taito. Players control a stationary launcher to fire missiles at invading armed UFOs from the top of the screen, while dodging meteors and enemy bombs. Hold the fire button to launch missiles, and holding it longer increases missile speed. Destroying different enemy ships earns 50 to 550 points. After clearing certain levels, players get encouraging ratings like "Good!!", "Very Good!!", and "Wonderful!!". The game supports 1-2 players alternating turns, with scores and high scores displayed at the top of the screen. For controls, the arcade cabinet features a joystick to move the launcher left and right and guide missiles.
