    Reccommend a game
    « on: May 05, 2012, 08:58:21 PM »
    I don't have a lot of spare time, but when I do I like something relatively uncomplicated. Graphics need not be good. I suppose what I'd really like is something like civilization I - highly addictive, being able to play half asleep, computer opponents only, and maybe turn-based. I don't want anything with a steep learning curve. It has to work on my 64bit machine. Buy, free, or whatever. Willing to pay if it fills the bill.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    P.S. Don't steer me to emulators please. I've set up three of them for Civilization I, and they were all an unsatisfactory pains in the arse.

      Perhaps any of the Heroes of Might and Magic series.

      It's turn based, single or multiplayer, and relatively easy to learn.

      And no matter what your system specs are, one of the series will likely run on your computer. The first one was released in 1995 and the latest (and sixth) one in 2011.

      As to whether or not they'll work on a 64-bit system, I can't say for sure. The older ones might not, but their system requirements claims the 6th one will work on 32 or 64-bit systems.

      Realm of the Mad God is a really fun & addicting fantasy mmo kind of game that is free and can be played in browser.

      Why not play a newer Civilization game?  I've heard nothing but good things about Civ 5.

        I suggest you to try the following games.

        Tom Clancy's EndWar
        Black & White
        Shogun: Total War
        Archon: The Light and the Dark
        Legacy Online
        Empire Earth
        Heroes of Might & Magic III: The Restoration of Erathia

        I think you enjoy these games. Thanks.

          I hope that was a typo. Civilization 2 is 15 years old.
