Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 4.86/day in the week to Sep 3 → 9.71/day in the week after.

legalzinho
Un tutorial malísimo y como buen juego Focus, la dificultad es absurdamente descompensada. Pero no es malo una vez te acostumbras a los detallitos tontos.
Лучшее с 1986 года, что есть про Чужих и USCM. Авторы - гении, такую же атмосферу как в фильме, снова создать и передать - нужно прям быть тру фанатом, вырасти на первоисточнике, расширять лор и вложить в проект всю душу и силы. 10 из 10. Don't get too comfy, ok.

14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Aug 22: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,515 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

while 55CA is a little steep for what's offered here and some of how it's implemented, i found the game to be a wonderful slice of early aliens anxiety on nightmare difficulty (hiding in a room listening to the beeping getting faster just praying they turn left instead of right) ontop of a fairly unique TTS, my main gripe (besides the myriad of bugs which required restarting the game) is to do with a relative lack customization options compared to say X-com
First of all, I love sci-fi and Alien. I didn't know what to expect, but I'm loving this game. It's more complex than I thought it would be. There are a lot of layers and it's really satisfying when you unlock to fun weapons.
Я кайфанул))))))
C'est très brouillon, pas très beau. Personnalisation des marines plus ridicule qu'inexistante. Punitif à l'excès. J'avoue que j'ai du mal à comprendre tous ces avis positifs. Mais chacun son truc j'imagine.
If you like the Alien-movies, and the xcom-games, this rocks! But difficult. I fidled alitle with the difficulty-settings, and stranded on mission 6. You have to start way-back, in mission, often, so getting whiped 20x times, was it for me. Will try another run some other time, on lowest difficulty.
IP 的效果有做到, 氣氛與壓力都有到位, 雖然如此, 但通閞成就感很低 己方角色能力很刻意做得很貧弱來提升遊戲難度, 永遠都在趕路的情況下管理團隊狀態 同時需要顧及的事情太多, 反而無法令人舒壓的 電玩媒體, 說不上一款遊戲 * 不適合上班族遊玩
Este juego es difícil como pocos. No es un XCOM, cuidado. En tiempo real llevas a una squad de marines y no tiene nada que ver con XCOM, quizás la cámara isométrica pero ya. Puede ser complicado acostumbrase al combate, luego le pillas el truco. Gestionar la moral de los marines es CLAVE. La trama es la típica de Alien, alguien no puede estarse quieto y el planeta se llena de bichos. Típica, que no mala. Decente o manejable, pero el diseño te engulle y te hace parte de la atmósfera al punto de asustarte a veces. Así se que disfruta bastante. Pequeño resumen de este juego: -Tus marines van a morir. -Los Aliens te la van a liar quieras o no. -Nunca hay una zona de descanso cuando la necesitas. 9.5/10
