It is the year 2084. You control a secret organisation charged with
defending Earth from a brutal alien enemy. Build up your bases, prepare
your team, and dive head-first into the fast and flowing turn-based
combat.
UFO: ALIEN INVASION is a squad-based tactical
strategy game in the tradition of the old X-COM PC games, but with a
twist. Our game combines military realism with hard science-fiction and
the weirdness of an alien invasion. The carefully constructed
turn-based system gives you pin-point control of your squad while
maintaining a sense of pace and danger.
Over the long term you will need to conduct
research into the alien threat to figure out their mysterious goals and
use their powerful weapons for your own ends. You will produce unique
items and use them in combat against your enemies. If you like, you can
even use them against your friends with our multiplayer functionality.
'UFO: Alien Invasion'. Endless hours of gameplay -- absolutely free.
The game takes a lot of inspiration from the X-COM series by Mythos and
Microprose. However, it's neither a sequel nor a remake of any X-COM or
other commercial title. What we as a team wanted to make is a brand new
experience that tries to surpass the quality of games from 1992, rather
than simply recreate them with flashier graphics.
We also believe that open-source projects don't
need to be disorganised or badly-managed. We work together in a
friendly and professional way, with a clear vision for a game that we
know is worth playing.

just installed game but wont run on desura???
This game is starting to be amazing!! But If there any way without letting the soldiers died?
Anyone have any plan or idea! reply me!
Do you updata anymore because the game right now is fun but boring over time. And i heard that you made game were you are on the alien planet? Well if so can you tell me about this at all?
The 2.4 campaign drags on for a long time, but the 2.5-dev campaign has been tightened up a bit, so hopefully you'll find the next stable release a bit better in this regard.
There's no playing on an alien planet in ufoai.

Im getting alota random crashes in this game, its quite frusterating since there is no auto save function. I have the proper graphics and computer, i can run xcom enemy unknown and bioshock infinite even. So im not sure why i keep getting these crashes.
The Linux version is very outdated here - it's 2.3.1 (from 2010) :-/.
There may be more up-to-date versions on our website:
