XCOM: Enemy Unknown is a re imagining of a 1994 PC game, which is widely regarded as one of the most effective turn-based technique games of all time. However, as this year’s Syndicate reboot showed, remaking a revered classic is certainly never an effortless task, specifically when the temptation is there to dabble with a great formula. Thankfully, Fireaxis has actually remained true to the series roots, delivering XCOM without dropping what it is that made the initial such an unforgettable hit.
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.
