The attackers are invisible to the human eye, but unbelievably they are now visible via the iPhone camera.

A variety of enemies must be defeated, including impressive boss characters with powerful special moves.

"Non-stop fun and activity is guaranteed in Arcade Reality," said Johnny Coghlan, Head of Publishing for Chillingo. "This groundbreaking new game is perfect for gamers on the go, as it can be played anywhere by moving the iPhone around in real-time to spot and shoot alien enemies. No other shooter-'em-up achieves such high-quality immersion and enjoyment."
