IGN;Coming in at over 2GB and $20, XCOM: Enemy Unknown is a large and expensive game in the mobile market, but that shouldn't dissuade strategy gamers from giving it a try. Even without the multiplayer or DLC features, it offers more depth than you'll find in most, if not all, other strategy titles in the App store. There's more than enough game here to justify the space the game will take up in your budget and your iPad memory.
XCOM: Enemy Unknown rebooted the series back in 2012, and has since inspired numerous new strategy game series to be born.
If someone gets into this I'd recommend getting the enemy within version. It's got all the dlc included so it's the better version. Wish the author would've atleast mentioned it. I didn't see it.
Fantastic game though. Xcom 2 is top notch also. I've spent countless hours in these games.
There are few things more gratifying in gaming than skillfully turning the tide of a conflict. And few genres provide as many opportunities to abruptly reverse the odds via skill and forethought as tactical strategy. To be sure, we are more often than not talking about turn-based tactical mobile games, specifically titles in line with the iconic landmark series (XCOM and Jagged Alliance) that made the genre a genre.
Some games age better than others. When a game is getting on in years, mods can help give the game a little push and make it worth playing again.
Got this game free with Plus on PS3.
Hard and fun game.
