Searching for something else (rebuilding dna) and this came up. Just wondering given tptw propensity to hide in full view using multi media - is this perhaps prophetic???

This game is about the result of a war between us and EB's where following nuclear war mutants appear. Made by inhuman games and won the 2005 best interactive game award. The objective is to

"...a fleet of alien ships appeared outside Earth's atmosphere. Several super weapons were fired from the largest of the alien spacecraft, the resulting explosions causing major alterations to Earth's geography. Fearing for the lives of every human on earth, the United States Government (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Government) unleashed its hidden nuclear arsenal on the alien ships. The resulting explosions rained down onto the planet, causing buildings to be destroyed and the air to be poisoned by radiation. As a result, in 10 hours, 5 of the 9 billion humans on Earth were killed."

The mutants were hybrids of the aliens that came to conquer Earth. They injected captured humans with their own DNA, causing them to mutate. Eventually, the mutants' forces were strong enough to take on the humans. The mutants deployed their forces, and the war between the humans and mutants began.

One integral feature is that if a human and a mutant are allied then they are able to benefit from each other's technology; something that most games do not allow"

The main resource in the game, used by both races, is trash. Trash is used as a building material for almost every unit in the game. It must be collected by Dump Trucks or Thralls, which are the collection and building units for humans and mutants respectively. Both of these units are collectively referred to as peons.

There are two other resources in the game, Gas and People. Gas is used as a resource only by humans, while people are as a resource only used by mutants. Gas is gathered by building a refinery on top of a gas site.

Pipe is an inexpensive structure that is built together, and forms the basis of logistics in Trash.

...in Trash they must travel through pipe. This also applies to technologies which are researched. Technology can be shared with an allied player by constructing a pipe to link your pipe system with your ally's.

'''extensive tech tree that players can use to improve the future units that are created. What is unlike most RTS games is that future units are the only ones that immediately take advantage of new upgrades. Older units must be upgraded individually in order to use the new abilities. However, upgrading is not limited to your own units. Players can also upgrade allied units, creating a very singular RTS experience, but that still is just a piece of the magic"

"Unlike most Real Time Strategy games where teamwork is really based on a collection of individuals, succeeding in Trash (http://www.gametunnel.com/gamespace.php?id=238) requires working together to create new weapons and technologies through the combined assets of all players on the team."
