oh no! even the game is in complete Russian

I just found the gameplay video in youtube.  The video looks as good if not better than X-Com.  Of course we all know it's just a video and doesn't really mean anything.

I'm throwing away my sony ericsson and buying a nokia.

Edit by SupSuper: No pirate sites. :)

If it was on PC, I was interested, but now it doesn't get me excited at all... I just don't like strategy games on mobile devices; I need a big screen and a mouse. :p

Is it freeware or commercial game? Online or single player? And most important - do they consider porting it to pc?

Maybe they will port it to PC? Who knows.

Well this is freeware game, but there exist donations in exchange to in-game finance help. This is definitly singeplayer, but there exist online hi-score table. I not found in thier site plans about porting to PC.

Game have have english interface, so you, guys can play with this game (Java powered cell-phone is required).

It's line of sight, not actual "lighting" like in X-Com. :P

Wow, I just tried this for some time and it looks really cool and polished.
Funny the game is playable in english but the website is russian only. :)

2 questions:
where is the english version?  is it in the russian version already?

And does anybody know any emulators that can emulate this game on PC?

Game asks your language before first start. Russian and English available. Also you can change it in Settings ("?????????", 4th line in Main menu, and then "????").

I finally tried this out, it's a fairly simplified X-Com clone. Geoscape has no base-building, just soldier/equipment management (kinda like early UFO:AI) and research, and battlescape missions pop up overtime.

Battlescape is pretty much the same, you move around your dudes in turn-based fashion until you shoot up all the aliens, with destructable terrain, lighting, TUs, shot types, etc. No complex inventory management.

Interface works well on mobile, though a bit tiny on my phone. There's also some sort of plot but I couldn't really care since the english is really crude. :P
