Evochron Alliance Demo

Evochron Alliance is the sequel to Evochron, which introduced space-sim fans to a diverse universe of interactive real-time sc-fi gameplay with several new and unique elements. Set in a newly colonized area of space, Evochron Alliance continues where the original left off and adds a single player campaign involving an elusive alien race known as the Vonari.
