Earth was attacked before by aliens but never this big. Citizen of earth now depends on your team, the one and only Earth Defense Force (EDF), the one who saves earth an hour ago from zombie attack to once again defend earth from danger. Emergency Earth is a solo game in which you took in charge to defend earth from danger
In the game player controls a group of army trying to blast the alien and defend earth from the invasion of aliens. The alien will emerge one by one from their mother ship. The map of the game is a strip of 5 column where the mother ship is on far right while the army is on the far left. Player is given a die at first to either use it to blast the alien or tries to get funding (money $). Money is used to get more dice hence more actions and other abilities like reroll and so on.
