Xenonauts is a strategy game in which you control a multi-national military organisation defending a Cold War-era Earth from alien invasion, using small squads of persistent soldiers to eliminate the extraterrestrials and recover their technology in turn-based ground combat.
So I had had these guys on my wishlist for a while. Last December I pulled the trigger on them while on sale. I’ve had a bit of downtime and decided to try them out. They are a Xcom successor, but I had not played the original or the Sid Myer reboot, so I didn’t really know what to expect. The game is really fun. I do like the mechanics of it all and the isometric view. For sure worth getting and has been a fun 20hrs so far.
Once you play it thru once check out the community version. It’s officially sanctioned by the developers and I think they even had access to the source code.

A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it’s price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don’t meet the system requirements, or just haven’t had the time to keep up with the latest releases.
It’s very nice game. Excellent spiritual successor to the original xcom.

I did notice that and I am looking forward to it after a play though.
