Firaxis’ XCOM: Enemy Unknown and its explosive expansion, Enemy Within, are celebrated for their brutal difficulty and unforgiving permadeath. Losing a seasoned Colonel to a lucky Critical Hit from a Sectoid is a rite of passage. However, sometimes you don’t want to fight the RNG gods. Sometimes, you want to test a strategy, fix a game-breaking bug, skip the grind, or simply unleash god-like power upon the alien menace.
