Dwarf Fortress	Bay 12 Games	2006	Dwarf Fortress is a single-player fantasy game. You can control a dwarven outpost or an adventurer in a randomly generated, persistent world. Although Dwarf Fortress is still in a work in progress, many features have already been implemented. The world is randomly generated with distinct civilizations spanning centuries of detailed history, hundreds of towns, caves and regions with various wildlife. The world persists as long as you like, over many games, recording historical events and tracking changes. Command your dwarves as they search for wealth in the mountain. ---Craft treasures and furniture from many materials and improve these objects with precious metals, jewels and more. ---Defend yourself against attacks from hostile civilizations, the wilderness, the depths, the dead and creatures of the night. ---Trade for all manner of exotic goods with your neighbors. ---Establish a barony and support the nobility as they make demands of your populace. ---Keep your dwarves happy and read their thoughts as they work and relax. ---Z coordinate allows you to dig out fortresses with multiple levels. Build towers or conquer the underworld. ---Build floodgates to divert water for farming or to drown your adversaries... and don't forget the magma! ---Surgery, sutures, splints, crutches and more: care for your wounded dwarves instead of leaving them to fend for themselves. ---Retire your fortress, then unretire it after spending time playing other roles in the world. ---Honey, wax, pottery, windmills, waterwheels, soap, plaster, wool, eggs, dyes, cheese, glass, animal training, and much much more... Play an adventurer and explore, quest for glory or seek vengeance. ---Meet adversaries from previous games. ---Recruit people to come with you on your journey. ---Explore without cumbersome plot restrictions -- thriving capitals, villages, catacombs, labyrinths, bandit camps, caves and more! ---Seamlessly wander the world or travel more rapidly on the region map and in underground tunnels. ---Travel by day and search for a place to shelter as night falls. ---Listen to rumors and help out town and civilization leaders. ---Earn a reputation as a hero, friend, soldier, enemy, thug, etc. with the various civilizations in the world. ---Retire and meet your old characters. Bring them along on an adventure with a new character or reactivate them and play directly. ---Z coordinate allows you to move between twisting underground caverns and scale structures, fighting adversaries above and below. Climb, jump and sprint! ---Stealth system with vision arcs which also respects vegetation density and other factors. ---Use signs like shoe impressions and animal tracks to hunt and avoid danger. ---Steal a mummy's treasure or learn the secrets of life and death at a necromancer's tower. ---Visit your retired fortresses and ask your dwarves to join you on adventures. The combat model uses skills, body parts, individual tissues, material properties, aimed attacks, wrestling, one-time opportunities, charging and dodging between squares, bleeding, pain, nausea, various poison effects and much more. Attacks and other movements extend over several instants, allowing you to deliberately catch enemy blows or plan your counter-attack. Hundreds of animals and other monsters, including many that are randomly generated for each world. Multi-tile climbable trees and many, many kinds of plants. Fruit, flowers and falling leaves. A dynamic weather model tracks wind, humidity and air masses to create fronts, clouds, rain storms and blizzards. Over two hundred rock and mineral types are incorporated into the world, placed in their proper geological environments. Add new creatures, weapons, plants, metals and other objects via modifiable text files. Extended ASCII character set rendered in 16 colors (including black) as well as 8 background colors (including black).

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
Spore	EA Games (Maxis)	2008	Comes in the same box as the Windows version.*Spore is your own personal universe in a box. In this universe you can create and evolve life, establish tribes, build civilisations and even sculpt entire worlds. 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. While Spore is a single player game, your creations and other players' creations are automatically shared between your galaxy and theirs, providing a limitless number of worlds to explore and play. 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.

Black & White	Electronic Arts (Lionhead Studios)	2001	In a perfect world, people wouldn't need gods. But perfect worlds can't exist and sooner or later someone, in trouble, desperate, will pray to the heavens. This is what happens in the beginning of Black & White. Your new tribe bow before you in awe, and from this moment your prayer power starts to grow. As you carry out godly acts, the belief in you rises and more and more people are convinced that worshipping you in the way forward. But you can be good or evil. You may choose to rule the world as you wish. As you grow in power, you acquire a Creature, a wondrous being capable of doing anything you can do. Capable of learning and being trained and capable of making his own decisions. The people of Eden, whether they believe in you or not, can't failed to be impressed by this beast, and more are swayed to your cause through their admiration of the Creature and the god that owns him. But on other lands there are other gods. They have their own Creatures and their own followers. You must vie with them for power. You must use your Miracles, your Creature and your cunning to steal followers from these gods, and to do battle between the Creatures for supremacy. The ultimate goal is the Creed. Elements of these live within each Creature, and he who controls the parts of the Creed can control the whole land of Eden. You may do well. You may sway the minds of the tribes, but can you gather the parts of the Creed? Can you defeat the god of gods, the enemy of enemies? Can you defeat your Nemesis and rule over the whole world? That is a question only you, and only time will answer.*Latest version: 1.3 (as of ?)[b]Minimum:[/b] Windows 95, 98, ME, or 2000 * 350 MHz Pentium II MMX CPU * 64 MB RAM * 8 MB VRAM * 600 MB HD space***2001 offering by design genius Molyneux, Black and White promised, and delivered, incredible advances in terms of in-game graphics, an advanced storyline, and artificial intelligence and playability that shocked the gaming world. Based around Godlike control of a village, with a creature that you can use to do tasks for you. However, Black & White failed to quite live up to what it promised. Nevertheless, an amazing game.

Like its wildly successful predecessor, Black & White, the sequel is all about moral choices. The land, however, has transformed itself. The inhabitants of this breathtaking 3D world have lost their innocence and developed new weapons and technology. As you enter this warring world, will you make tribes coexist peacefully; encouraging villages and towns to grow into sprawling metropolises, or prompt them to inflict their will upon others by, creating and commanding large armies that seek to dominate and conquer? Creatures in the game have grown too. They can learn strategies, master new abilities and skills, lead armies into battle and be your ultimate unit. Black & White 2 includes other new elements, such as improved graphics and miracle effects such as rivers of fire and earthquakes that yield massive destruction. Every choice you make will have an impact. Each action and inactions prompts obvious changes to buildings, flora and fauna, all morphing to reflect your personality. New features: Wage massive wars, sieges and battles or use your skill and power to keep the peace. * Discover and use new Epic Miracles, including the ground-ripping Earthquake and volcanoes, which cause rivers of lava. * Choose and customize the Creature that's right for you from a selection, including old favorites such as the Ape, Cow, and Lion. * Research and create new forms of weaponry, from swords to bows to siege machines. * Build and design unique defensive gates and walls. * Control and marshal huge and varied armies. * Create and control settlements that include housing, farming, and many other buildings like fountains and lush gardens (if you're Good) or spikes and torture pits (if you're Evil). * Weather systems such as rain, snow, mists, and fog. * Journey through 9 lands homing each of the five tribes.

The company, on doing this sequel, had to keep up with the original game's quality and fun. The problem was, without Molyneux. Thankfully, Bullfrog proved that they can still create classic games even without their former mentor. This game takes everything that made it's prequel great, and improves it all. Briefly, you an evil dungeon keeper (natch), that has to command the place in your reign of filth and decay. Also, protect the place from those damn goody-two-shoes who try to destroy your underground evil dungeon. I don't want tp spoil the game with words; you simply have to play it.	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
