The earth command faces a grave crisis. Hideous alien life forms have taken control of Earth's space station and hold its inhabitants hostage. Only 2 brave space troopers step forward to face the challenge. Ricky & Mary must save the hostages and destroy the alien menace once and for all. This overhead shoot'em up game features good graphics & sound as well as simple yet fast gameplay with plenty of weapons to find!

Two players control two soldiers, named Ricky and Mary, who fight their way through large eight-way scrolling levels while rescuing their comrades who are being held by aliens. After they have rescued a certain number of hostages, the exit opens and they can pass through it in order to fight the end-of-level guardian. If this monstrosity is defeated, they are then able to move onto the next stage. Alien Syndrome features two player simultaneous gameplay and pickups which assist the player, including better weapons and maps of the current level.

In 1988, the game was ported to the Master System, MSX, Amiga, Atari ST, Amstrad CPC, Commodore 64, and Famicom/Nintendo Entertainment System (published by Tengen without a Nintendo license). Later, the game was ported to the ZX Spectrum (1989) Game Gear (1992) and Sharp X68000 (1992), the latter being the only arcade perfect port.
