UFO Alien Invasion is a strategy game for the PC from WW3 Design featuring tactical combat against hostile alien forces which are about to infiltrate earth at this very moment. You are in command of a small special unit which has been founded to face the alien strike force. To be successful on the long run, you will also have to have a research team study the aliens and their technologies in order to learn as much as possible about their technology, their goals and the aliens themselves.
Heavily inspired by the ‘X-COM’ series by Mythos and Microprose, the first game of the series, UFO Defense, became a classic and while UFO: Alien Invasion is neither a sequel nor a remake, it is still a turn-based strategy game like the former. Each member of your squad has a limited number so called “time units” each round, which are consumed when you order the unit to walk, to fire a weapon or to perform any of the other miscellaneous actions. When all your forces are out of time units, the alien’s turn starts. In addition to eliminating as many enemies as possible, your mission is to minimize civilian casualties as well as to acquire parts of the advanced alien technology.

Hi,
Would like to check this out as a fan of the Xcom series, but the link is dead. Any chance of digging this out?
Cheers,
