Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri™ Planetary Pack
Description
Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri™ Planetary Pack includes the original Alpha Centauri and the expansion, Alien Crossfire.
Mankind begins its most monumental task: the colonization of space. A crew of internationally renowned scientists and security strategists, with wide-ranging convictions and diverse ethics, embarks on a mission that will change the world. One Planet. Seven unique factions. Which will you lead? Each faction has its own agenda, each leader a final goal. You must play to each strength and exploit each hidden weakness in your quest to rule the future.
Key features:
- Great spin-off of the legendary Civilization series, in a refreshing sci-fi setting
- Design your own units. Balance their speed, power, and toughness to suit your current tactical needs
- Seven factions to chose from, each with its own artificial intelligence model that creates a very suggestive feeling that you’re up against real people

Best Civ game ever made
Even today it still holds up with ideas and concepts that for some unfathomable reason where discarded such as a diplomacy system that allows you to decline diplomacy if you're in the middle of something, or espionage where you can conduct an operation, then leave evidence implicating another faction and provoking two enemies into war, or breaking their alliance. It's a game where you can concievably win the game having never fired a shot in anger, you do have to defend against mindworms but you can just bribe your enemie's units on the battlefield. It also has a thoughtful, intelligent story and quotes that have stood the test of time such as the manipulative outro when you try to quit a game - "Please don't go, the Drones need you, they look up to you" guilt tripping you into a few more hours play. Buy it, play it, you won't be sorry because this is a masterclass in game development and sadly demonstrates how the art is being lost.

Not as fun as the nostalgia
Back in the day I used to love this game, but the AI is pointlessly aggressive.
