Panzer General 2 Mac Os X

Mac OS X users should pay attention to those instructions, although I recommend using Boxer. DOSBox drag and drop (Windows) Many of the standard DOS games can be played immediately with a drag and drop, after a standard DOSBox setup. Welcome to the “Panzer General 2” for Mac game page. This page contains information + tools how to port Panzer General 2 in a few simple steps (that even a noob can understand) so you can play it on your Mac using Crossover. Crossover makes it possible to play Windows on your Mac with just a few clicks!

UFO: Alien Invasion is a turn-based strategy game in the style of the old X-COM PC games, where you control a secret organisation charged with protecting the world against a brutal alien enemy.

The gameplay is broken down into two parts.

'Geoscope' mode is all about high-level tasks. You'll research new technologies to help you in your battles, produce new weapons, build up bases, and launch interceptor craft to shoot down invading UFOs.

The heart of the game, though, is Tactical Mode, where you send a hand-picked team of specialist soldiers to an area where there's been reports of alien activity, and have them find out exactly what's going on.

Unusually, this works in a turn-based form. Every soldier has a certain number of 'time units' to spend per turn. You might use these to move a soldier as far forward as possible across a map, for instance. But, you may find his very last step brings an alien into his sight. And so when your turn ends, the alien will be able to attack and kill him with ease.

If you're not used to turn-based games then this initially will be, well, a little frustrating. But you just have to be careful, move forward very slowly, don't just rush into rooms, allow your soldiers to cover each other, and so on. Which of course is actually what this situation would be like in real life; it all helps to create a surprising amount of tension and excitement.

UFO: Alien Invasion isn't a sequel or remake of X-COM, then, but it does generally do a good job of recreating the same atmosphere. The graphics are a little retro, but as acceptable as you'd expect from a modified version of the Quake 2 engine, and if you're looking for some engrossing and entirely free entertainment then there's a good chance that the program will appeal.

Version 2.5:

Verdict:

It takes a while to master, and not everyone will like the turn-based approach, but we find UFO: Alien Invasion to be a complex and engrossing game which can keep you entertained for many hours

Game Review

Panzer General is a top-down, turn-based, historical battle game developed and published by Strategic Simulations, Inc and released for DOS in 1994. It was one of the first games (if not the first) that gave you the ability to play for the Nazis, but succeed where Hitler failed.

In this strategic battle game you command land, air, and sea units to defeat the enemy forces. Choose between the Axis or Allied forces to take on a computer or human opponent or play campaign mode as the German Generalissimus and take down those Allied dogs. Go to war and take command of your troops through a point-and-click interface with an easy access menu. This game features “circled” battle animations, battle sounds, and marching and moving sounds (think Risk: The Game of Global Domination for Playstation, 1997). Even winning an award for Best Voice-Over Acting (Barry Link as commanding officer).
