Fallen Haven is a 1997 computer game. It is a science-fiction themed turn-based strategy game. It functions on Windows 95 and 98 computers.

A sequel, Liberation Day, was released in 1998.

Plot[edit]

The game depicts a battle between the human race and an alien culture called the Taurans, sparked by a misunderstanding.

The armies of the Humans are relatively simple and rugged, while the armies of the Taurans are more technologically advanced.

Reception[edit]

The game received average reviews. The Charlotte Observer noted its multiple levels of difficulty.[11] However, Next Generation said, "In the end, Fallen Haven is little more than a good idea with poor implementation. With a few gameplay tweaks and the addition of the two-player option Fallen Haven might have been great, but as it stands you're better off sticking with Civilization 2 [sic]."[6]
