About X-COM: UFO Defense
Lead a squad of elite soldiers in tactical ground combat missions against alien invaders while researching captured alien technology to turn the tide of war. Navigate shifting global politics and strategic resource management as you decide humanity's fate in an increasingly desperate fight for Earth's survival.
Features:
- Command deadly close-combat battles
Shooting down UFOs is just the beginning: you must then lead a squad of heavily-armed soldiers across different terrains as they investigate the UFO crash site. Tackle the aliens with automatic rifles, rocket launchers, and even tanks in the struggle to retrieve useful technology, weapons or life forms. - Research and manufacture alien technologies
Successful ground assault missions will allow X-COM scientists to analyze alien items. Each new breakthrough brings you a little closer to understanding the technology and culture of the alien races. Once you have sufficient research data on the UFO's superior weapons and crafts, you'll be able to manufacture weapons of equal capability. - Develop a strategy to save the Earth
You must make every crucial decision as you combat the powerful alien forces. But you'll also need to watch the world political situation: governments may be forced into secret pacts with the aliens and then begin to reduce X-COM funding.

Been playing this game doe decades up to today. Still my favourite version of the franchise. I love how free you are... Free to become the global supplier of laser cannons to make millions and killl a few aliens while you are at it lol
It is truly one of the most iconic games of its time.
awesome old school game, dont make them like they used to
I've been playing this game since it came out and my roommate at the time hooked me on it. Just fun to play and lose yourself in some fun turn-based alien hunts
Great classic DOS action!
doesnt even work, stuck in a tiny box in the middle of the screen with no way to expand it. Cant see it well enough to play.
