X-COM: UFO Defense

In X-COM: UFO Defense, you lead a global initiative established to combat the growing threat of alien invaders. Your mission begins by shooting down UFOs, but it doesn't end there. Once you have neutralized the extraterrestrial crafts, you must mobilize a squad of heavily armed soldiers to explore crash sites across diverse terrains.

Engage in intense close-combat battles using a variety of military weapons, such as automatic rifles and rocket launchers, as well as tactical vehicles like tanks. Your objective is not only to eliminate alien forces but also to recover valuable technologies, weapons, and alien life forms that can enhance your capabilities.

Successful missions yield critical insights into alien technology, allowing your scientists to analyze and eventually develop advanced weaponry. However, your strategy must extend beyond the battlefield; diplomatic tensions may arise as governments consider secret alliances with aliens, threatening the very funding and support you rely on to protect Earth. Every decision matters in this multifaceted campaign for humanity's survival.
