Only a few thousand humans managed to escape from the Earth before its collapse in 2150 A.D. They spent the next few years on the terra forming of the red planet, developing new technologies and building up new civilisations. Somehow each of the three fractions "Eurasian Dynasty", "United Civilised States" and "Lunar Corporation" did this independently and separately from each other - but in the year 2160 something strange happens in this new world. If ED, UCS and LC join forces or continue their old war against each other - is possibly now, up to the player. Beside the usual venues in the solar system, there are some strange looking locations: planets with moving and reflecting liquid surfaces. And beside the standard RTS - resources acquisition, base building and destruction of enemy bases, the year 2160 will have some adventure inspired tasks for the players.Get the Earth 2160 demo off WP (350mb)
1.0 CONTENTS
1.1 Demo
This demo consists of two levels from the retail version. One level from the ED campaign and one level from the LC campaign. We recommend playing the ED campaign mission first because it includes some basic instructions. There is a timer of 45 minutes during each mission on the demo. This timer is not in the retail version.
There are some additional minor improvements to the retail version, but this demo should give you a good sense for what to expect in the retail version.
