Square off against your human opponent and an AI-controlled alien enemy to see who will emerge victorious. 4000 A.D. is perfect for anyone who enjoys strategy games but doesn't have the endless hours required for games like Homeworld, Starcraft or Alpha Centauri. Each turn can be played in just a few minutes, making it ideal for the office. You can even get a bit of work done while you wait for your opponent's next turn.
