Eagle is an early-80s vertical-scrolling shooter, with waves of enemy ships descending in formation and a player who must eliminate them before they reach the bottom of the screen, within the mold that Galaxian and Galaga had popularized just a couple of years earlier. It's one of many shooters from that first crop seeking its place in arcades without adding much novelty to the formula, but it documents well the genre's explosion as soon as its commercial success was proven.
