Overview
Description

Original War is a real‑time strategy game that blends science‑fiction and historical warfare. Players command elite forces sent two million years into the past to mine the alien mineral Siberite and secure a new energy source for the United States. The narrative explores a divergent timeline where America becomes the sole superpower thanks to this inexhaustible power. The game features single‑player campaigns, multiplayer battles, and cooperative missions, letting players experience tactical combat, resource management, and time‑bending strategies across icy landscapes and alien technology. Developed by ALTAR Games and published by Bohemia Interactive Studio, Original War offers a unique mix of RTS depth and speculative history.

Star Wolves 2 puts you back in the cockpit of the legendary Star Wolves team, fighting for the Empire against alien threats and rogue AI. Set six years after the original, the game blends 3D space combat with deep role‑playing and strategic squad management in an open‑world galaxy. Navigate a universe of human pirates, alien warlords, and rebellious machines while customizing your crew, upgrading ships, and making quick tactical decisions. The single‑player experience offers a rich narrative, tactical battles, and the freedom to explore a sprawling sci‑fi setting.
