GodisaGeek: "XCOM: Enemy Unknown isn’t just one of the best iPad games available, it’s one of the best games available, full stop. If you haven’t already picked it up on console or Windows PC – and don’t have PlayStation Plus, which would enable you to get the game for absolutely nothing – then you owe it to yourself to pick up this iOS version. It’s a little bit pricey when it comes to iOS games (weighing in at over a tenner) but when you consider that you’re getting essentially a full console game, playable on the move, it’s a steal."
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.
