About this game


Book of Aliens’ action takes place during a global crisis. Earth is threatened by an alien invasion originating from below the planet’s surface.

About Return 2 Games series


Book of Aliens is the upcoming second installment in Return 2 Games, a series of unique mid-core games inspired by the golden days of PC gaming. Each R2G title is a tribute to a single hit game from the ’90s: a reimagining of a single universal story for a brand-new audience, using modern means and innovative, often vastly simplified gameplay mechanics.



Book of Aliens is developed as a tribute to MicroProse’ UFO: Enemy Unknown. If you want to learn more about Return 2 Games or support us in the development of the series, visit the Supporter Pack store page:
