Gameplay
[edit]Alien Conflict was a play-by-mail computer-moderated game in which the players are part of the Kastron Sandpeople who abduct aliens from their worlds for arena combat.[1] Players could use a custom character design or import one from Starmaster.[2]
Reception
[edit]W.G. Armintrout reviewed Alien Conflict in Space Gamer No. 65.[1] Armintrout commented that "Designing an alien is challenging, while actual play is beer-and-pretzels fun. Except for the high price, I can recommend Alien Conflict to everyone."[1]
