I still frequently play the newer xcom 1-2. I really want to play the originals, but I feel like I need to read some guide of the basics, since it's not very clear. I assume back in the day there must have been a manual or something to reference.
Check out Xenonauts 2. It's basically a modern version of classic X-Com, not what it's become. It's still early access, but it's pretty solid.
Oh wow, I had heard the name of this game, but I had no idea it was like XCOM. Thanks for the tip!
