You will control the fate of the human race through researching alien technologies, creating and managing a fully operational base, planning combat missions and controlling soldier movement in battle.

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Players praise XCOM for its engaging blend of tactical turn-based combat, base-building mechanics, and well-balanced difficulty that remains fresh despite its age, with many calling it a standout in the series. However, some criticize the random number generation system as frustrating, and technical issues like frequent crashes and occasional bugs detract from the experience for certain players.
Softlocked twice on the FIRST mission due to bugs. Unit got stuck on the roof and couldn't move, reload the game now it's stuck in a tutorial asking me to kill an enemy that's already dead. Not a good first impression.
Bağımlılık sonradan geliyor arkadaşlar, oyuna azıcık şans verin pişman olmayacaksınız. Bu arada Cheat Engine'den speedhacki 2 ye alıp öyle oynamanızı tavsiye ederim, tur beklerken sıkıntıdan ölmezsiniz böylece.
Your soldier's gonna miss a 95% shot to hit while the alien's gonna hit their 25% True story buy the way (it didn't happen to me exactly like this but it certainly felt like it)
The X-com series as a whole is amazing with this being a great starting place to begin. In my opinion this is one of the best turn based strategy games out there, but it does have some problems. The game is a bit short, however that could be seen as a plus as the mission variety is slim. The combat is fun and creating soldiers that you grow surprisingly attached to makes their deaths have a bigger impact. Overall an amazing game with plenty of replayability 7.5/10
Simple and dumb, nothing like the originals were in the 1990s.. It was the herald of a primitive age that lasted almost a decade. I'm glad we are back to games that treat you as an adult.
best game ever
