Xenonauts is a single player sci-fi strategy game for the PC, where, like in previous X-COM games, your task is to defend the world against an alien invasion. You engage UFOs and deploy a special division of soldiers to deal with the alien threat. If you played X-COM: UFO Defense (aka UFO: Enemy Unknown) back in the 90&#8217;s you should feel right at home.<\/p>\n<p>So, I got in touch with Chris for the possibility of hosting a giveaway contest for Xenonauts. He complied and supplied us with <strong>5\u00a0game codes!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>So, what do you need to do to win a game?<\/p>\n<h3><strong>How to enter the contest<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s very simple to participate and have a chance to win one of the 5 copies of Xenonauts.
