Ground Control is set in the 25th century. Mankind emerged from the devastation of the Third World War (known in the game as "The Sixteen-minutes War", which almost wiped out the whole of humanity) and managed to colonize several planets across the galaxy.

This game is one of the very few strategy games that I liked. First being Command&Conquer. Though this game has much fancier graphics and a cool story. Great interface, easy controls, gameplay is set in the future. I didn't complete the game, because my VGA fried at that time, along with everything else... but I liked it while t lasted though. If you like strategy games, give this one a try. It's a long game...
