Abomination: The Nemesis Project (also known simply as Abomination) is a real-time tactics/action computer game released in 1999. In the game, the player leads a team of eight genetically altered supersoldiers (marines) to defeat an infestation of a global genetic plague which slowly turns into a superorganism. Prior to release, Abomination was often referred to as the closest strategy fans would ever come to another X-COM. However, response to the game ranged from lukewarm to negative, with the game's A.I. being the most primary of grievances.
