X-Com: UFO Defense 1.2

In X-Com: UFO Defense, you command a global defense organization tasked with repelling an alien invasion threatening Earth. You construct and manage bases, intercept UFOs, and deploy squads in turn-based tactical combat to recover alien technology and survive encounters. Captured artifacts are researched in laboratories to unlock advanced weapons, armor, and spacecraft capabilities. Funding depends on your performance in protecting nations, which influences their continued support or potential withdrawal. Success requires balancing strategic resource management with desperate, high-stakes ground missions against an unknown extraterrestrial foe.
