This is the sort of game that stays in your mind. It might not be the fanciest, you have to mod it to get widescreen and I probably overlook any flaws because I know no better. But it's been 20 years and I'm still playing this game. 3D graphics ruined some of the early 2000's games but this sort of pixel style will always look good, mostly because you can't zoom in but viewed from affar it just has a lovely quality. Don't just stop here though, Sierra made a few of these and they each have their quirks and art style. But for me I fancy it will be another 20 years in the future and I will still be playing Pharoah. Thanks to GOG and my old CD copy, no one will ever tear this thing out of my clutches.
Knew about this game for years but the screenshots never did it justice. The scope is wild. In many ways it's like Minecraft, not infinite but what you can do with mods makes this one of the best games for moulding to your dream Zombie game. The updates do take a tad long but the most recent has been for foundation mechanics aimed at setting up future gameplay. Do yourself a favour, play it blind (figuratively) a few times and add the mods as you see fit. Use the tutorial to get used to the aiming, it's like nothing else out there. And don't die.
