Why you can trust GamesRadar+
Humans vs aliens. If anything from videogames is to be believed, it’s the inevitable struggle of the future. In this third installment of the UFO series, mankind’s already lost the battle for planet Earth, and we've been shipped off by conquering aliens to a lonely crater on Mars instead.
Newcomers will be totally bewildered by Afterlight’s mix of turn-based strategy and micro-management. If you’ve never tested the waters of the series before, it can be a bit like trying to gouge your eye out with a slippery spoon - painful andtough, while you’re positive there’s a much better way to get the job done.
