UFO: Alien Invasion

About

You run a global defense force in this turn-based strategy game from 2006. Lead squads of soldiers against alien missions, balancing resource management, research, and base upgrades. Each mission unfolds in grid-based combat where shot placement and positioning matter. The open source code lets players tweak or expand the game freely. This free-to-play title focuses on tactical depth over flashy visuals. Community feedback highlights its strategic challenge and the weight of command decisions. With one user noting its story-driven approach, it rewards careful planning and adaptability. The design echoes classic tactics games but carves its own path through customization options and global threat management.
