You are in command of a small special unit which has been founded to face the alien strike force. To be successful on the long run, you will also have to have a research team study the aliens and their technologies in order to learn as much as possible about their technology, their goals and the aliens themselves.

'UFO: Alien Invasion' is heavily inspired by the 'X-COM' series by Mythos and Microprose. The first game of the series, 'UFO DEFENSE', became a classic and, in our honest opinion, is one of the best games ever made.
'UFO: Alien Invasion' is neither a sequel nor a remake of 'UFO DEFENSE' - we simply had the urge to create a similar strategy game, which will hopefully be as entertaining as the original was for the players.

Before you can fight the aliens you must equip your gun using the inventory screen, by dragging the gun into your hands. To fire the gun, you must reload it first by clicking the revolver icon on the lower-right side of the screen. Items you pick up along the way, must be equipped the same way before you can use it.

Keys:
Direction left/right: Move left/right
Direction up: jump
Spacebar: fire gun (if equipped)
Run: equip your horse
