The story starts from a civil war breaking out in a far away galaxy. It results in an alien leader escaping and crashing down in Tunguska, Siberia. The humans think it's a meteorite and get surprised almost 60 years later by an alien expedition, sent to track down their leader. There's a cliffhanger at the end, but I'm not going to spoil that.

You can play as both sides: the aliens and the soviets. There is a total of 12 levels.

There is no multiplayer or skirmish mode in any version.

Gameplay and the look and feel of the game is something between Warcraft 3 and Ground Control 2. Some people like it, some people hate it. Each side has one unique hero unit, that can spawn troops or revive other fallen heroes. If the main unit is dead the game might say you could continue, or it might end. There is  a total of 8 heroes for each side. Heroes can upgrade their stats and can soon become veterans by attacking the enemy (you gain upgrade points, which are shown in the top right of the screen). Creating your army requires having a certain amount of Bioessence or Biomatter (It depends on which language you're translating from.) for each unit. The more Bionodes you own, the faster you collect it. To create units, you must firstly connect (fortify) your special hero unit to one Bionode. Each one of them has a special effect, that can help you in battle - an Anomaly. The ones on Bionodes are reuseable, others that you can find elsewhere on the battlefield are useable only once. There's quite a few of them: Red Crystal - restores health; Blue Crystal - restores energy; Green Crystal - restores both health and energy; All-seeing Eye - reveals a portion of the map; Northern Lights - stuns enemies in a certain radius; Rainbow Shield - Casts a temporary invincibility shield on selected units; False Target - redirects enemy fire to your selected spot; Spear of Fate - destroys any enemy in its radius; Energy Discharge - Takes away most of the targets energy; Vampirism - Takes away most of the targets health.

This game first came out in Lithuania in 2006-03-03 and probably in the other Baltic states, because it was sold in supermarkets that you can find in all 3 Baltic states (most likely localized in Russian) Then some time later in Russia with more improvements in gameplay. The last country to have it sold was Italy strangely (multiplayer.it). The English version was supposed to be released in North America, by "Strategy First", but it never made it to publishing and was just unfinished. "Wireframe Dreams" also went to E3 2005, with proof surviving only in the form of an article about the expo.

You can find various pictures on the internet. And you might also find a crack for the Russian version. ( The full version is protected by Starforce DRM so you will need to crack it, otherwise, if you don't want to download special tools from the Starforce website, your modern PC might be ruined. Also, the crack is only for the Russian version.).

If you don't want to crack it, then here is some help from Starforce itself. You can either remove the drivers, or update them to ones that don't ruin windows 10. And if you're on a laptop, the still protected game also might think that you don't meet the minimum requirements even if you can. Just remember not to restart your PC right after installing the game. (I've uploaded 2 .mdx files in a .zip file, named "PSI media descriptor files". You should use these instead, because .iso files might not contain the necessary information to be authenticated by the DRM.)

Since this is the Lithuanian version, and there are no ways to play it safely on modern computers, on this page is an unofficial installer with a modified DRM-free Russian version (No need to install the original), that translates it back into Lithuanian and restores some cut content as seen in one link to gameplay videos at the bottom of the page. Of course, it would be amazing if the Lithuanian version would be cracked after so many years as well, because recreating it as a language patch is still not a 100% recreation, as there are other subtle differences hidden in a very secure file format. The developers have been mentioning over the past five years or so ( as of 2021)  that they are making a remaster and they have mentioned an open-source freeware version, but nothing has been officially, except a zip file containing the build that was probably sent to foreign publishers for translation and evaluation (See the text right below).

All three known versions (including my now obsolete patch) and the demo are now uploaded to myabandonware.com. Plus an internal developer release, which contains an older version than the foreign releases in Russia and Italy and a slightly updated Lithuanian localization along with a seemingly unfinished English localization.

Intro movie: Lithuanian (with English subtitles), Russian, Italian.

Useless fact: The Lithuanian intro movie consists of 3270 .jpg images in a 400x300 resolution, which are combined separately from the audio in a .rs file and played at around 30 fps. Only file ripping programs can extract the images.

An upscaled version is uploaded right here in a .zip file. It cannot replace the game intro because it is in a different format.
