Feeling nostalgic? Return to the series that made turning aliens into mush via turn-based strategy, fun with the X-COM series at 75% off.
Grab either of the X-COM games (X-COM: UFO Defense, Terror from the Deep, Apocalypse, Interceptor, and Enforcer) for only $1.49 or all of them for $7.45.
Sure the games are old, but they are still bloody fun and at the price of $1.49 each, GOG.com are basically handing them out. Make sure you give them a bash, especially if you are a turn-based stratergy fan.
You are in control of X-COM: an organization formed by the world’s governments to fight the ever-increasing alien menace.
- 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.
Terror from the Deep
The war continues… X-COM: UFO Defense brought you to a galactic battlefield. X-COM: Terror from the Deep brings the alien terror into a totally new dimension.
Seeking to take advantage of a weakened Earth, X-COM’s deep space foes unexpectedly change strategy and launch a powerful second front against planet Earth. In the dark depths of vast oceans, long sleeping forces are awakened by reanimation signals sent out across the galactic silence by their interstellar brothers and sisters. Slowly but surely, an army of hibernating alien sea creatures awakens. Your combat now extends to the strange new worlds of the deep where superior alien technologies threaten the very survival of this planet – your planet – Earth.
