Yes! Another Spidweb player! How avid are you? Guessing by the fact you say remind... not very... Have you tried the Avernum Trilogy yet? BoA just was released for Macs... I wait for the PC version impatiently...

Someone else voted for Exile which reminded me of what a great game it is.

Does no one know how to use the list feature?

Based on what I would play if I decided to sit down and load up a game today, with one tip of the hat to historical considerations at #10:
  1. Civ2
  2. Null entry (no game deserves the 18 pts for second place, stealing the glory of Civ2)
  3. Master of Orion 2
  4. SMAC
  5. Warlords 2
  6. Roller Coaster Tycoon
  7. Railroad Tycoon Deluxe
  8. SimCity 2000
  9. CtP2
  10. Civilization

A lot of games are best in their second edition. When a good game is made but there are some flaws, they make a sequel with the same draw of the original but without the flaws that were bothersome in the first one. Then in the third one they try to improve upon a perfect game and don't meet expectations.

Seriously do you have to post just to tell us you're going to update?

How about posting to tell us when you are going to post and announce an update?
