Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri™ Planetary Pack

This game is amazing, but I found that the alieness of the landscape, people, units and plot was very bleak and had me feeling moon mad after a few hours, which is just enough to figure out the basics of how this game works. I've played it a few times with the same results, I think its really wel put together but the bleakness of the world puts me off comming back to it.

This game stole MANY hours of my life. I can't say how fun and totally addictive this game is. If my Win 7 played the old game better, I'd probably play it more today. The graphics are OLD! (1999) But It doesn't need it. Kids give it a try. It's well worth it, but make sure you delve deep into the tech trees. It makes a difference. Great game Sid.

I remember when I first got Alpha Centauri. Back then I had no idea who Sid Meier's was or his games. But after playing Alpha Centauri I knew I had too try more of his games. Alpha Centauri is a gorgeous TBS game with gorgeous art and amazing game play from city management, exploration, terraforming, etc. If you are new to video games or to Sid Meier's style of games. Then I highly recommend you play Alpha Centauri and its expansion. It is a wonderful classic for all gamers young and old, casual and hard core.

I still have the original discs for this & Crossfire. I've spent countless hours playing, and still love it. The voices are amazing, especially the guy that plays CEO Nwambudike Morgan. Very cool. Thanks GOG!

SMAC is among the very best games ever made. Not just strategy games, not just computer games, but games. It is far and away the best and greatest turn-based strategy game of all time.
