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.

One of the best games I have ever played. Started played demo as a child in nineties and then got full game for Christmas. After so many years I sometimes play this game. For example I have finally found out how to play multiplayer missions. But on latest operating systems this game don't work so well so little bit optimization couldn't harm.
Those games also need your vote!

Toy Soldiers: War Chest
Toy Soldiers: War ChestToy Soldiers: War Chest is similar to the previous games where players prevent enemy units from reaching the toybox by building and upgrading turrets. In War Chest, turrets can be improved by upgrading armor, fire rate and damage separately. The enemy AI is improved as well. For example destroying a bridge will cause ground units to take a different path to the toybox. Certain units have the ability to heal nearby units and some will focus on destroying any placed turrets. Barrages and playable units from Toy Soldiers: Cold War returns with a few changes. Instead of earning killstreaks or destroying a specially marked enemy unit, the game uses a bar that fills up when killing enemy units. When the bar is filled to a certain amount, a special ability can used to call in barrages or spawn a hero unit such a zeppelin that performs a bombing run. The game features 4 highly customizable armies (8 in Hall of Fame Edition). Players can choose which turrets to deploy, barrages and modify the hero's arsenal. As the game progresses, new customization options will become available. The Hall of Fame Edition features four additional licensed armies based on fictional characters. This includes Duke and Cobra Commander from G.I. Joe, Ezio Auditore da Firenze from Assassin's Creed and He-Man from Masters of the Universe. The characters can be purchased separately or as a bundle on the standard version.
