Publisher's description of Homeworld
Homeworld combines elements of space combat, strategic play, and action in a new gaming experience. This demo includes the first two missions from the full version and a step-by-step tutorial. In the first mission, command the massive mothership and begin construction of your fleet. In the second, learn to engage enemy craft in deep space on the 3D battlefield. Each victory brings you closer to Hiigra, your homeworld. The demo also features Skirmish mode, which allows you to practice your multiplayer skills against up to seven computer opponents.

Pros: The 3D battlefield is definitely enticing to hard-core RTS fans, and the gameplay is unique as well. Very fun and very addicting! Deninitely a classic, and perhaps one of the best RTS games made. I highly recommend at least trying the demo.
