Uncharted Waters Review by CaptN3mo
Xenonauts is a game with different aspects of strategy involved (Real-time, turn-based, accelerated time and paused progression). Between base management, the protection of Earth and the general survival of the human race you have to manage a large amount of other things in-between. It won´t get boring! Here are some more details: • The game sets a nice pace for you (not slow mind you, just appreciative of your being new to this game) to understand how it is controlled. You are introduced to a few important hotkeys, core UI elements, the various keyboard and mouse commands and you are able to get a feel for the inner workings of the game as it progresses. After that, the speed and difficulty are increasing rapidly! o On the one hand, you have the global alien invasion situation to manage in a real- time overview of Earth.(There are 4 different speeds to choose from) o On the other hand, you need to engage the attackers from out there somewhere in turn-based ground-combat. You need to take down their “flying saucers” first of course. The Interception of UFO´s gives you the choice between automatic resolution and manual intercept. o Furthermore, you have to manage one or more bases of operations from where you launch intercepts and recover/fight missions. You build the bases up from scratch (except for the first one, which comes basically operational but with expansion options). In those bases you manage research, troops and equipment, defence, radar observation as well as your air and ground vehicles. Xenonauts is the graphically unimpressive but mechanically maybe even superior or more complex sibling of the new Xcom Games and the faithful Heir, as true to the heritage as possible and healthy, of the spirit and challenge of the old X-com games. Make of that what you will. It is a truly well-made game. It shines without being glittering. It is for everybody who wants a strategically challenging game.
