Following the destruction of an Espheni tower at the end of season 3, the Second Mass happen upon the wreckage of an ambushed convoy. Among the survivors is an engineer who claims he can create a powerful weapon that may level the playing field in the fight against the Espheni invaders, but it will require the 2nd Mass to undertake several risky operations to collect all the components. What seems at first to be a routine salvage mission quickly becomes a battle for mankind’s very existence. [Little Orbit]… Expand

    If this was a bargain-bin title we might be inclined to be slightly more forgiving, but as it is, this is 35 pounds for a game you've likely already played a far better version of. [Xmas 2014, p.87]

    Graphically speaking, the game looks poor on 360. Even for a last generation game it looks like it would sit better on the PS2 during most stages.

    An egregious rip off of a classic game, and one that manages to capture none of its class or drama. Even fans of the show will be disappointed. [Issue#118, p.87]

    Possui mecânicas interessantes de evolução de personagens e de gestão de upgrades.
    Os pontos negativos estão ligados à gráficos fracos, poucas opções de customização e uma inteligência artificial fraca.

    Não esperem um X-COM, mas não é algo para se decepcionar, principalmente se levarmos em conta ser um jogo de baixo orçamento e proveniente de ser 'baseado' de outras mídias.

    Certamente vale uma nota 7~8 para os otimistas, e notas muito baixas estão diretamente ligadas ao desgosto pelo gênero do que exatamente pelo jogo.    … Expand

Achievements are glitchy. Game play was ok but after the first 10 mission the game became very tedious and boring! The game was not worth the $15 I paid for it.
    I love turn based strategy games but I wish I didn't buy this game. Save your self time and frustration and don't buy this game.    … Expand

    Save your money. Just go play X-COM again. This is nothing more than a pathetic cash grab where the devs are playing on your love of X-COM. ISave your money. Just go play X-COM again. This is nothing more than a pathetic cash grab where the devs are playing on your love of X-COM. I bought this steaming pile of a game and sadly I did a digital download. I can't even trade it back in. Little Orbit should be paying you to play this garbage. Nonexistent AI. Pathetic customization or lack thereof. Original Xbox level graphics and effects. Horrible voice acting. No plot. Just absolute garbage.… Expand
