CrystAlien Conflict is a LEGO online strategy game released in 2007. It was created to advertise the 2007 LEGO Space subtheme, Mars Mission. The game follows two groups of explorers: The Humans and Aliens. Each group has 9 levels, a conflict mode and a special ops mode. There are also bonus levels, which can be accessed through cheat codes.

Gameplay[]

In the game, players can build structures using bricks. Bricks can be harvested using a Crystal Miner. Players start off with just the main base: the Eagle Command Base for the humans, and the Alien Mothership for the aliens. Power plants must be built in order to provide power to the other buildings. There are also other buildings, such as Training Centres for Infantry, Defence Turrents, Vehicle Factories, Radar Stations, Technology Centres and Satellites. Constructing any of these buildings will unlock the next unit in the build chain.

The armies become available once players have built the necessary buildings; Infantry and Engineers come with a Training Base, Vehicles come with the Vehicle Factory. The Astro-Fighters are unlocked with the Radar Station. The last building available, the Satellite, provides the player with a bombardment ability, costing 3000 credits, which players receive through mining Energy Crystals.

All parts of the armies are different. They both have health, and many units have special abilities. The Recon Dropship and the 'Hyper Carrier' have space for several Infantry to board and they can release them where ever needed (except on acid pools). With a maximum of two Recon Dropships or Hyper Carriers on the field at once, it is enough to carry all of a player's Soldiers and Engineers. Engineers, or Saboteurs, as they are called in alien form, can fix various vehicles and buildings or hijack opponent structures.

In some of the missions, players to not have a main base, which, in effect, makes them unable to build new structures.
