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.
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.Top Action Fantasy Comedy Sandbox

Sakura Taisen 2: Kimi, Shinitamou Koto NakareThe sequel to the original Sega Saturn system seller (in Japan at least) becomes one of the Saturn's last great hurrahs.

The all-female cast from the original returns in full, joined by two additional members.

The SettlersThe goal of this game is to build a prosperous and well organized city and to gain control of enemy cities. This might initially seem simple to do, but in reality it is much more complex. If you consider all the game's problems inversely, that is from the end of the game first, you will understand better.
In order to conquer the enemy castles, you will need many knights. To keep their morale up, you will need gold, and for the weapons you will need iron and coal. These raw materials are found in mines. The mines must be provided with food and the raw materials must be melted in a foundry.
The food supply is ensured by the fishermen and the farmers, but they need tools, as do all other workers. These tools are made by smiths. To build huts, houses, castles you will need construction materials and workers...Historical

Bahamut LagoonBahamut Lagoon combines RPG mechanics with squad-based combat. Characters have HP, MP (SP for fighter characters), EXP, equipment, stats and class-specific, SP-draining special elemental abilities very much like traditional console RPGs. The player can explore his surroundings, talk to people and visit shops when not in battle, though to a limited degree as there is no world map and no way to leave the current area.
The game's core is its turn-based battles fought on a 2d grid. Characters are assembled into parties of four and the player allowed a maximum of six parties, which are usually well outnumbered. The two opposing sides act in alternating turns so that each party can move once and/or attack once a turn. Attacks are divided into distant and close-up combat. In the former, a party uses a special ability (e.g. casting fireballs, throwing lightning, healing allies) of one of its members at a distance. The range and possible area of effect damage vary per ability. If the attacking party has two or more characters with the same ability, they join in the action to multiply its effectiveness. Distant combat results in less money and generally less damage, but the target cannot retaliate. Distant attacks can also affect the field; fire and ice ignite or extinguish forests and melt or freeze ice, etc. Close-up, each unit in two adjacent opposing parties can act once. Very much like Final Fantasy SNES combat, they can attack an enemy, use an item or a special ability (though these can't be combined and most only affect one target instead of all) or defend.
Dragons are the player's ace in the hole. They have their own stats and gain experience like normal characters do. In battle, each party has a dragon attached to it and draws a large portion of its strength from that of its dragon: if a party's dragon is slain, the party will lose the ability to use special attacks and class-specific abilities for the remainder of the map. The beast acts as a very powerful autonomous unit that moves after its party does and it cannot be controlled beyond very simple commands, e.g. "Come!" Out of battle, dragons will eat anything and raising them by feeding them items is an important part of the game. Feeding can improve their stats as well as affect their behavior on the field, and the dragons develop into new forms as they grow.
The player can change the characters in each of the parties, their formation as well as what dragon represents them at will.Action Fantasy
