It is the year 2084. You control a secret organization charged with defending Earth from a brutal alien enemy. Build up your bases, prepare your soldiers, and lead them to victory in turn-based tactical combat.

Totally worth the download, probably one of my favorite games now.

I'm new to UFO series. I've always wanted to try UFO, but having too outdated graphics (not that I'm very conscious about it as I also play Baldur's Gate and Jagged Alliance) or being bad recreations of the original, I never really got into them. This isn't really top-notch graphics, but it is beautiful enough that you'd love it. But gameplay is what really sets this apart. It is a bit complicated for first-timers, but once you get a hang of it, you'd love it more and more. The game lore is also well written. The more you read, the more you get sucked in; and believe me, there's *a lot* to read! Finally, the music...it's beautiful and fits perfectly to the game that it helps in immersion. Overall, the game shouldn't get anything lower than 9; but it is a 10 in my book.

Ive played this game a long time, but not enough time for me. I decided to come back to UFO: AI to prepare myself a bit more for the release of XCOM: enemy Unknown, which is also a game really similar.
That kind of game always have a great tactical perspective. If you dont use any tactics, well, you die!
this is a really great game, which have a lot of customization options available, more practical than visual, which is one of the only thing missing in it.
But, even when XCOM will be out, I think I will still continue to play this game. They look so similar, but when you play it, you start telling yourself "Will I be able to do this in any other game?"
Anyway, now, let me play.

Brings back good memories of the old original. Very similar in gameplay but with some twists.

Best ufo-type of game I've played. And I've played them all. Be sure to grab 2.5 or newer.
Also, this game is hard.
