I had never heard of XCOM before so I had to ask my husband what it was. He told me it was a video game series that he was supposed to like. However, he's never played it. That leaves me a tad confused, but I think he meant that it's the kind of game he likes. Anyway, still confused as ever, I watched the video.

This game looks like fun and I think the app is really neat. It exerts pressure and determines what bad things are going to happen. I do wonder why the app doesn't read the instructions aloud, but perhaps that's an option. I don't think this would be a good game for me. I don't do well under that kind of time pressure. Also, we don't have anyone to play it with.
