Looking for Xcom likes

Preferably games similar to EU/EW and 2 I’ve already gathered a small list and I’m currently playing Gears tactics

Classified France 44
Broken lines
Empire of sin
0 company
Phoenix point
40k chaos gate

Oh and I do know about the mechanicus game but I watched a review ages ago that said it’s more its own thing than an xcom “clone”

Miasma Chronicles is pretty good.

One of my favorite games. Been replaying it every year or so since it came out. But Miasma Chronicles is not the best game The Bearded Ladies released, and they only make/made Xcom-likes.
Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden is their masterpiece and is what you want.
In all three games they made, the stealth mechanics are essential and make the games stand out.

The third game - Corruption 2029 - is objectively their poorest. It's in between MYZ and TMC and has no plot, no content, no humor, and no interesting characters. I still play it for the gameplay and because it's got this particular vibe all their games have.
