Sid Meier's Colonization

This game would be number 1 on my top 10 game list. It's a great strategy game that's easy to learn and fun to play. Most of all, no 2 games are the same, so you can play it over and over. Scenario's are fully customize-able, and it even has an editor. It can be a bit finicky on newer systems, but I've always managed to get it to run satisfactorily.

Decent gameplay which has aged surprisingly well, gorgeous pixel graphics but a bit of a romanticising take on the topic. Nonetheless, I had some fun playing it :)

Either this or Transport Tycoon. I received it as a 14th birthday present, and I must have played it for days on end. I loved the history of it, the graphics, the strategy. Hopefully you will too.

Exact game I used to play. I thought it was lost forever. Thanks GOG!

Great gameplay - I've played this a TON, maybe more than any other game on the PC. I even like this original version more than the updated game based on the Civ IV engine. Great soundtrack (although after 7 or 8 ours of non-stop play it does get a little repetitive, LOL).
