Excellent game. A truly underrated gem if the rts and squad tactics genre. True to the more of the franchise while still be a good stand alone story. A bit clichè, but good.

Alien Dark Descent is an incredibly immersive game that hooked me from the start. As a fan of turn-based strategy, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed its RTS elements combined with the intense atmosphere. Perfect for XCOM enthusiasts—just don't forget to bring a sniper along!
