Not a great game, from what I've read, but it's _free_, so you should
compulsively be clicking like a Pavlovian test subject.

Its a classic!  I still have the original disks from when I first bought 
it (somewhere) and a Steam copy so it will run on a Windows from this

What the heck are you reading? The original X-COM is considered to be
one of the best PC strategy\tactics games ever made.

LOL. I stand corrected. I thought it was one of the (purportedly) awful
sequels, not the original X-COM.

Too many details in my life right now. I'm not focused.
