Zaxxon Escape (ザクソン エスケープ) is an entry in the Zaxxon series, and a direct sequel to the original 1982 arcade release of Zaxxon. It was released for Android and iOS devices in 2012, but was removed from sale in 2014. It was still available on Amazon until 2017-2018.
The game takes a from-behind perspective similar to Galaxy Force II; you play by directing your ship to turn up, down, left, or right and shoot at certain times. In addition, you rotate the device to rotate your ship, which is necessary to pass through certain holes that you would not be able to fit through otherwise.
