Reviews - PSI: Syberian Conflict

PSI: Syberian Conflict is a real-time strategy game (RTS) set in soviet Siberia, 1967 with some RPG elements. In this game the 1908 Tunguska meteorite was actually a fleeing evolon alien leader's spaceship. The crash site was surrounded with concrete walls and designated as "The Zone", with not a single living being allowed to escape and enter. The USSR starts adapting alien technology for it's own use. However, at the cost of many lives... Fast-forward nearly 60 years into the future: a rescue party which arrived to retrieve the Leader encounters an unexpected resistance, and elsewhere a breach of "The Zone" is investigated by patrol squad "Beagle-13". This is the start of both campaigns. Both sides have 6 missions. Maps are up to 1 square kilometer in size. No base building - only unit production. Upgradeable Hero units. Special powers scattered around the levels. Terrain has plenty of details, affects battles. Good enough, although slightly dated graphics even for the time.
