Utopia	Mattel	1981	[126]* [48]*You and your opponent each have an island to rule. Points are accumulated based on the welfare of your island people. You can choose to be a benevolent ruler or an aggressive dictator. Your people need food, housing, and industry for clothing and other essentials. What you cannot manage are natural disasters. A single hurricane could wipe out your crops, sink your fishing fleet, destroy all the homes and factories you've built. Rebels may automatically appear should the welfare of the people drop. They could attack. Classic dilemmas in a game that is sure to become an absorbing classic in its own right.	Intellivision
Utopia	Mattel	1982	I'm guessing the releasedate is derived from the copyright, in this game and some others it says 1982, but was the Aquarius released somewhere before 1983? The western release wasn't before that as far as I know.	Aquarius

Spore	EA Games (Maxis)	2008	Comes in the same box as the Windows version.*Spore is your own personal universe in a box.

In Spore you have a variety of creation tools at your disposal that allow you to customise nearly every aspect of your universe: creatures, vehicles, buildings, and even spaceships.

The Spore universe is made up of five phases with different challenges and goals. You may choose to start with the cell phase and nurture one species from its humble aquatic origins to its evolution as a sentient species. Or you may decide to start building tribes or civilisations on multiple planets. What you do with your universe is up to you.

The [i]Spore Creature Creator[/i] was released as standalone product in [i]2008-06[/i] for people to populate the [i]Sporepedia[/i] with (this turned out to be huge success). The creature creator is not a game in itself, but only the part that allows creating the creatures (like the name implies).

Tide Pool Phase Fight with other creatures and consume them to adjust the form and abilities of your creature. It's survival of the fittest at the most microscopic level. * Creature Phase Venture onto land and help your creature learn and evolve with forays away from your nest. The only way to grow is by taking chances! * Tribal Phase Instead of controlling an individual creature, you are now caring for an entire tribe. Give them tools and guide their interactions as you upgrade their state of existence. * Civilization Phase Once your city is established, your creatures begin seeking out and interacting with other cultures. Make contact with an olive branch or a war cry. The goal for your creatures is to conquer the planet. * Space Phase The time has come to move on to other worlds in your solar system. Make contact, colonise, or terraform, then venture further to find other solar systems. A 'mission' structure provides new goals in your quest for galactic dominance. [EA]	Windows

Skyward Collapse	Arcen Games	2013	Un interesante giro a la estrategia: en vez de intentar sobreponer tu facción ante todo lo que se te ponga por delante, tu misión es equilibrar las fuerzas de dos facciones enemigas sin debilitarlas tanto que el hostil mundo en el cual viven acabe con ambas. Suma criaturas mitológicas e incluso dioses caminando entre ellos y sale un juegazo de estrategia por turnos, como una mezcla entre Black and White con Civilization y aderezada con una pizca de Age of Mithology. Arcen Games mantiene su excepcional saber hacer juegos. 9 de 10	Windows

Populous: The Beginning	Electronic Arts (Bullfrog)	1999	POPULOUS: The Beginning takes a slightly different approach to strategy and allows you to play as a Shaman, whose goal is to become a deity. Your must guide your people through the world on the way to ever-increasing power and domination. Of course, there are usually other people in the way who have the same goal in mind, so youll have to destroy the opposing forces and take control of religiously significant points, until you have complete mastery of the particular world you're battling over.* [32]* [27]	PS
Populous: The Beginning	Electronic Arts (Bullfrog)	1998	Populous 3 had Undiscovered Worlds downloadable (free?) add-on released at some point.***Populous was created by grandmaster Peter Molyneux. But he left Bullforg before this game was made. The question is: was Bullfrog able to recreate the magic of the populous games in it's third installment without it's idealizer? Fortunately, the answer is yes. They did a great job, and completely remade the series. Gone in the simple top-down view of the previews games. Now, it's a virtually fully scalable 3D world that can be miraculously terraformed just like the old days, but with infinitely better graphics and effects. A great game, extremely recommend to any strategy game player.	Windows

Populous	Electronic Arts (Bullfrog)	1993	A review from a French magazine from December 1993 stated that the game was "finally released on Mac", so the 1989 release date usually found (which is the original release date of the first version of this game) is yet to be confirmed. The Mac portage may have come only on 1993. According to most sources, the game was released in 1989 (as (c) 1989 appeared on the title screen), but some sources agree with the 1993 release date, and I would tend to believe them.*** [22]	Mac OS Classic
