About Balloon Invasion

In Balloon Invasion you sit behind a big cannon that points up at the sky. Far away, army balloons float in from the sea and drift toward your base. You drag the mouse to aim and click to fire, trying to pop each balloon before it reaches you. When a group moves together, you sweep your shots across the line and watch the sky fill with small explosions and falling scraps.

Each balloon that you destroy gives points that you use right away. You can spend points to call planes that fly in and help you, or drop a storm of shells from far guns. You can also build little helper turrets on the ground. Some fire flak like your main cannon. Some shoot fast bullets. Others shoot rockets that chase balloons. Between battles you unlock upgrades, so your cannon fires faster, hits harder, or reloads more quickly.

Balloon Invasion feels like a cartoon war board brought to life. You learn to aim in front of moving targets, not right on top of them. You learn when to save your points and when to panic and call a big air raid. The difficulty rises step by step, so kids can enjoy the fireworks on easier stages while older players push into harder maps with more balloons and tighter timing. It keeps your hands busy and your mind focused without a lot of buttons to remember.
