Capitalism 2 (Jewel Case)
Windows | Enlight Interactive, 2003
Sometimes good games take a little time to be appreciated...
...and this is one of them. Many times in our instant gratification society people don't want to wait. If you are one of those people then I do not recommend Capitalism 2 but if you are one of those that is willing to put in the effort and explore the depth of the ...

MSTS is the greatest game ever!
MSTS is the greatest computer game I have ever played. If you are a railfan, then you will love this game. I highly recommend it. And I can't wait for MSTS 2 next year!

1701 A.D.
Windows | Aspyr Media, 2006
Very fun and engrossing
I've been playing this game for 6 months (since Jan 2008), logging over 300 hours of game-play (which it tracks for you), and it is still my favorite game.
Before this game, I played SimCity 4 and CivCity: Rome. (BTW, I also tried SimCity Societies, but I don't even ...

Crazy Machines: The Wacky Contraptions Game Win/Mac
Mac OS X, Windows | Viva Media, 2005
Super fun, Awesome Game
If you like building contraptions then this game is for you. I am a mechanical engineer and I love playing this game. Some levels take more critical thinking and problem solving, but that's what makes the game challenging and fun. You'll love this game!

Railroad Tycoon 3
Windows | Gathering Of Developers
Create a railroad empire with Railroad Tycoon 3
Railroad Tycoon 3 (RT3) is a improved sequel to RT2. The graphics and topography are excellent. When laying track a grid can be overlaid, which gives you an idea of the elevations. This allows you to keep expenses down and improve travel speed by avoiding steep ...

Restaurant Empire
Windows | Enlight Interactive, 2003
In dept and clever!
- Very well thought out game. Covers all aspects of running a restaurant, at least as much as a video game possibly could.
- Little bit of micromanagement here and there, but it's relatively easy to pick up as long as you have common sense.
- Again, very clever ...

RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 (Mac)

RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 (Mac)
My kids love this game. They had a copy for our PC, and when we all converted to Mac they were very upset they would not have access to the game. I bought the copy for the Mac, and they are thrilled. It is a great game that teaches important concepts including ...

Sid Meier's Pirates!
Windows | 2K Games, 2005
Fun, borderline addictive, and even educational!
We gave this game to our teenage son for Christmas a couple of years ago. It's interesting to note that he (and I) still play the game on a regular basis.
Just in case you are not aware of this game, here's the premis:
You are a young man living in the 1600s ...

Civilization IV
Mac OS X | Aspyr Media, 2006
Create your civilization then take over all others - too fun
Ok, I got to say that I was afraid of installing this game on my intel macbook I got back in May. I got the mid range model because I wanted something portable for class. Anyway, when I heard that Civilization IV wouldn't work on it because of the integrated graphics ...

SimCity 4 Deluxe Edition
Windows | Electronic Arts, 2003
Just need more Simcities, not weird off-shoots
I really like the game, though there needs to be a real sequel. Also need to ditch the squares. They can be used as guidelines, but being able to draw property lines would make it more interesting. Just an idea. I will continue to like this game, but Maxis should get ...

Chris Sawyer's Locomotion
Windows | Atari, 2004
Locomotion is a great blast from the past.
Locomotion is a 'spiritual sequel' to Transport Tycoon, although this DOES NOT MEAN it is exactly the same, simply with a graphics update. Loco holds its own as its own game. I've seen a number of reviews giving 5/5 and a number giving 1/5 - I strongly advise you try ...

Airline Tycoon Evolution
Windows | Strategy First
Fun Fun Fun
This game works PERFECTLY and it is very FUN and ADDICTING. I have a Pentium 2 233 Mz. drive and it works like a charm! It only slows down when it is changing songs. It is challenging, too. I cannot get past the 3rd level where you earn 5,000,000 in profits. I can't ...

Railroad Tycoon 3
Windows | Global Star, 2003
One of the greatest games...ever
Quite simply, this game is still replayable four years after my original purchase.
For those who love the Railroad Tycoon series, this is one of those rare sequels that simply do not disappoint. Railroad Tycoon 3 improves upon one of the greatest games ever in a ...
