3 completely different nations on one planet - will it work out?
Control the blue Pimmons, the wild Amazons, or the insectoid Sajiki and create your kingdom on the planet Lukkat.
Direct the fate of a whole nation and make them control the planet. Be a founder of cities and ensure their growth and prosperity. Your nation requires not only food, it wants to be kept in good mood through pubs, theatres, circuses and orgy dens.
Push forward research and trade. The correct diplomatic strategy protects you from sudden attacks. But to be prepared - fighting will be inevitable.

Ok, Alien Nations is not the greatest strategy game ever, that's for sure: Probably is not even at the top 50, but it's still a quite enjoyable RTS. Why? Simple, because Alien Nations features some easy (but not shallow) gameplay, good sense of humor, colorful graphics and three different cool races with their own units and buildings. The bad news is the game is a bit slow, but... full review if you want some fast RTS action just play starcraft. Alien Nations is something different.
In general, I'm avoiding Strategy games not because I don't like them but because I'm not good at them. To be honest I suck! I prefer the safe tranquillity of adventures and the epic tales of RPG's.
At about 2000 a friend of mine gave me this game to try and (to my surpise) I stucked playing it until I finished it and with the three tribes (yes I actually did).
What... full review drove me the interest was that you couldn't controls your individuals but instead you could gave orders like a god and all this in real time.
You can give order for building, trading (very very important) e.t.c. and your people will follow your commands having their daily circle of life.
There are three tribe, each having their unique attitude, others being more hostile and others more peaceful. The sure thing is that you will love them.
The graphics are cute and the overall atmosphere has lot of homour.
Recommended to everyone!
A little tough to start, but a pretty forward tutorial, no ,major bells and whistles here, basic and good for people entering the genre for the first time.
