Asteroid Blaster

Play Asteroid Blaster free online. Pilot a nimble ship through a field of drifting rocks and blast them into dust.

A classic space shooter in a wrap-around asteroid field. Turn, thrust and fire to break big rocks into smaller, faster ones until the sector is clear. Fly off one edge and you reappear on the other. From wave 3 a saucer drops by to shoot back — and when things look hopeless, jump to hyperspace and hope for the best.

How to play Asteroid Blaster

Objective: Clear wave after wave of asteroids without losing all your ships.

  1. Shooting a large rock splits it in two medium rocks; medium rocks split into small ones; small ones are destroyed.
  2. Your ship keeps drifting in space — thrust in the opposite direction to slow down.
  3. Everything wraps around the edges of the screen.
  4. You are safe for a moment after respawning (the ship blinks).

Scoring

Large 20, medium 50, small 100, saucer 200, plus 250 for clearing a wave.

Difficulty levels

Easy: slow rocks and an extra ship. Hard: fast rocks.

Tips

  • Stay near the centre and let rocks come to you.
