Description

You play Lt. Col. Hericksen, an ex-colonial marine who is now the commander of a terraforming team. The object of the game is to travel to remote outpost B54-C in order to find the cause of a distress call your vessel received.

Once there, your team finds that the base has been overrun with aliens. You must find out how this happened and escape before either the aliens find you, or another mysterious alien race destroys the planet to eradicate the alien threat!

The game is more or less based on the Alien comics published by Dark Horse (hence the name)
