This game takes place on the planet LV-426 which many fans will know as the planet on which the film Aliens takes place. The 30 missions are broken down into 3 sections each themed by a different Alien movie. Each section ends with a boss battle against a Queen Alien.

It is a basic first-person shooter from the Doom era and follows that path very well. The variety of Aliens is basic as is the line-up of weapons, but this does not affect the gamepaly a great deal.

One of the major good points about this game is its eerie atmosphere. It really has a good habit of creeping you out as you wander the lonely corridors.
