One of the best games from the early 1990s, X-COM: UFO Defense was my favorite game. When I got my iPhone, I figured someone had already done it but I couldn't find it when I searched the App Store. Then I searched the web and found references to works in progress but nothing available. So I wrote a rendition of it for the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad.
What People Are Saying about Aliens Versus Humans
"Aliens Versus Humans is a solid turn-based strategy game based on a cult classic PC title. It is involving and rewarding. And it is well worth a look." -- 148apps.com 4/5 stars. Read the full review here. Just a few of the Ratings and reviews from App Stores around the world:-
United States
- 5 Stars: "Addictive Gameplay! I love the replay value and it really does take you back. Nicely done. And for us beginners, the game is easy to understand with the help of the tutorial. This is a must buy for you all. And trust me when I say it's worth the price because you won't regret it."
- 5 Stars: "Fun tactics game. This plays like an old school x-com tactics game."
- 5 Stars: "FINALLY!!!! I can't believe it took this long for someone to make a game like the original Xcom. If you like turn based tactics games, this is a MUST buy! Love it!" Australia
- 5 Stars: "Brilliant! It has condensed the Xcom tactical play into a series of missions, with a degree of flexibility in your troopers and the UI stays out of your way, but the right corners were cut and it seems it focuses on some of the best parts of the game." United Kingdom
- 5 stars: "It's x-com!!!Awsome!!!!!I'm loving this I played the original for years and this is a great homage, I hope/ wish the developer updates with the research and development screens and maybe even the world map and base building, but for now I'm well happy about this game, it's a classic and this does the original justice , well done and keep up the good work!!!! I love it" Hong Kong
