One of the first pc games I got from a Goodwill store that I loved playing as kid but have long since misplaced the disk for. For a quick overview this game was more or less the prototype for Fallout Tactics given they share the same dev team but with more an Aliens feel to it. You control a squad of people on every stage on a space station that has been infested with alien life forms akin to Xenomorphs in a way. Granted they also have some random weaknesses or strengths against typical objects on a lvl so one lvl a fire extinguisher may deal a lethal effect while on another it might very well cause an enemy hit with it to multiply. I do remember hitting a way as a kid, and getting stuck but for what it's worth I was a young teen when I got my hands on this but I'm sure it did have some challenging stages if only due to limited healing or the weapon rng working against you.
Got this game in an old "Todo a 150 pesetas" store, back when I was young. Loved playing it with my father and sister. Would be awesome to be able to play it again.
Many types of characters, each with their own skills; weapons whose effects are unknown in each level until you test them in an alien (maybe they hurt them, maybe they evolve, maybe they multiply!); different maps with enviromental hazards as no oxygen or fire.
Hope I can play it again!
I played the demo to death when I was younger, I loved the 'Aliens' vibe to it, and for the longest time I had forgotten what this game was called. I would love to see it on here GoG just to be able to play the full game.
Anyone who enjoyed Star Trek: Away Team, might like this, it plays like an earlier version of that.
One of the best part of this game is that you don't have to play every level, as the game will unlock 3 levels after the one you have just completed. For example if you finish level 5, you can play levels 6, 7, and 8. If 7 is too difficult, you can play level 8 and unlock levels 9, 10, and 11. You do have to play the final level in order to see the ending though.
The challenging part is the various weapons/items on the map would have a different effect each time you loaded a level. So you could play level 5 one time and the Electrolaser does Medium Damage. The next time you play level 5 the Electrolaser will do Multiply effect (hit one alien, it turns into two aliens). The time after that the Electrolaser has the Shrink effect (Alien -> Grub -> Cocoon -> dead). So even the same mission will require different tactics.
I would like this game on GoG as the CD is starting to fail and the game no longer installs on Win10.
The Demo was so hard and gave me Nightmares. My Mom could not be convinced to buy it for me as a child...........................now I come back as a manchild.

Monster HunterMonster Hunter is an online action-hunting game by CAPCOM for the PlayStation 2 released on March 11th, 2004 in Japan, and September 21st, 2004 in North America. The game is a fantasy hunting simulator filled with many deadly monsters. Like actual hunting, successfully killing or capturing the monsters requires significant strategy, skill and involved resource management. While initially considered a commercial failure, Monster Hunter would go on to become one of CAPCOM's highest selling franchises.
Despite featuring an offline mode, Monster Hunter was primarily an online game. The official servers were shut down on December 31, 2007 in North America and Europe, and July 1, 2011 in Japan. This means that it is now impossible to play online on official CAPCOM servers. Despite this, the game still features a small active community on private servers.Action Fantasy Survival

L.A. NoireL.A. Noire is a neo-noir detective action-adventure video game developed by Team Bondi and published by Rockstar Games. It was initially released for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 platforms on 17 May 2011; a Microsoft Windows port was later released on 8 November 2011.
L.A. Noire is set in Los Angeles in 1947 and challenges the player, controlling a Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) officer, to solve a range of cases across five divisions. Players must investigate crime scenes for clues, follow up leads, and interrogate suspects, and the player's success at these activities will impact how much of each case's story is revealed.
The game draws heavily from both the plot and aesthetic elements of film noir—stylistic films made popular in the 1940s and 1950s that share similar visual styles and themes, including crime and moral ambiguity—along with drawing inspiration from real-life crimes for its in-game cases, based upon what was reported by the Los Angeles media in 1947.
The game uses a distinctive colour palette, but in homage to film noir it includes the option to play the game in black and white. Various plot elements reference the major themes of detective and mobster stories such as The Naked City, Chinatown, The Untouchables, The Black Dahlia, and L.A. Confidential.Open world Action Historical Thriller Sandbox Mystery
