Xenonauts

I am in love with this game. I was supposed to be studying but instead played this for more than 5 hours straight. The balance between new researches, upgrading your base, expanding, hunting down UFOs and ground combat is really well done. I absolutely love the visuals on the xenopedia. Lastly, the ground combat is really satisfying for me, something I can't say for dogfights, which I would say are really simple.

I'm about 5 hours in and have now had to abandon two games due to it constantly crashing after completing a mission.

This game has a really unique atmosphere that adds very well to the great tactical-strategical gameplay of this game. I would recommend this game to anyone with interest in tactical or strategical games.

Good, but I have problems on MacOS: problems with unassign wounded soldiers and with speed control during interceptions. 2D graphics creates problem with visibility behind walls.

I've been gushing about this one in the forums for a few months now so I'll keep this short and sweet. This game is an incredibly smooth, playable and polished XCOM lovingly returned to a new generation of gamers. It stands up beautifully alongside both the original source material and the recent (and also very good!) Firaxis reskin. It adds and subtracts a bit here and there in the terms of mechanics; but nothing feels overly streamlined or unnecessary. It oozes eerie atmosphere and any complaint I might have is ultimately small, superficial and most importantly never takes away from the sheer enjoyment of playing the game. There's a lot to love here, both for the nostalgic gamer and any newcomer meeting this one for the first time. While much of my praise is couched in the bias of an enormous XCOM fan, make no mistake this game is a tactical strategy and strategic management gem. It stands up unbelievably well on its own rights and I can't see any reason why, 20+ years from now, someone isn't remaking THIS game. It really is a modern classic in every sense.
