After discovering the prosperous planet X13, the intergalactic corporation Galactoil began collecting the world's resources for a hopeful profit. However, little did the company know that X13 was the home of a deadly alien race known as the swarmers. After accidentally killing off a handful of the queen's offspring, the lives of every member of the corporation are at risk as the swarmers invade the factory. With the invasion begun, the swarmers must devour and destroy all humans in the turn-based strategy game Attack of the Earthlings.427Please respect copyright.PENANALFXw4TscFr
Without a doubt, Attack of the Earthlings gets its inspiration from the Alien movies for its concept yet takes an interesting direction on the game's creativity and focus. However, as an indie game released in 2018, it is a lesser-known title on steam, proven it is popularity harder to find than bigger sci-fi games on steam, such as Half-Life and Halo. 427Please respect copyright.PENANAH0WSgHETtI
With gameplay similar to the famous Xcom series, the player tackles each level of the game through turn-based tactics. In addition, the game gives the player the chance to play as the plot's villain, the Swarmer Queen, in a dark and surprisingly humorous setting. The Swarmer queen utilizes a mixture of stealth and savagery to kill unsuspecting human targets and consumes them to build a swarmer army. The Swarmers come in relevant numbers, with the option of evolving into better units with incredible abilities and advantages. 427Please respect copyright.PENANAwgYtiKNnuT
The humor, although nothing groundbreaking, still worked well with the game's tone giving a more entertaining experience to the player. The level design is another benefit to the game, providing players to take advantage of the surroundings and complete side challenges for bonus rewards. The combat can be slow for players looking for a more active experience but perfect for players who love strategy and turn-based combat.427Please respect copyright.PENANARLicpLbYcm
Although Indie Titles can go one way or another, Attack of the Earthlings is a unique game for lovers of turn-based strategy and a chance to play the villain. With a price of at least nineteen ninety-nine, the game makes up for its cost with its enjoyable strategy experience, especially if purchased on sale. I recommend this game to anyone looking for these experiences or looking to try something new to play. 427Please respect copyright.PENANAq64JVWttU6
