Raiders of the Lost Sim
Regina:
The little guy said I should post here about a software company that makes games suitable for everyone. If I remember right they're called Everybody Games but I'm not sure where the one we have is at the moment. I believe it's called Penguin Puzzle and it's a blast to play. I bought it for me and the short one ran off with it. ;)
There's a sequal to Tropico which I think is called Pirate's Cove. I've read that it's a lot better than the original. I just pretty much quit buying other games until the prices come way down because I end up not playing them enough to justify the cost. The Sims is another matter all together. There are times when (I'm embarrassed to admit) I play somewhere around 8 hours a day. Health issues prevent me from doing many things at times so that's when I put in quite a bit of playtime.

Roller coaster tycoon and that genre seem to be about micro-management. Great at first, then boring maintenance. There aren't that many challenge scenarios to be drawn out really, most customers, most profit, fastest growth, and so on and on.
I'd like to see a really accurate hospital simulation I just realised, after talking about Theme Hospital.
My 'quick game' of the moment is Bejewelled Deluxe, a popcap game. Lovely little interface, great sounds and a good combo of luck and skill.

Oh yeah, Ghost Master. Had a great time with that. What happened to the sequel that was supposed to be coming out?
Muisie:
My favorite strategy games: Sim City (at which I sucked), Rollercoaster Tycoon (original), Zoo Tycoon (original), and Tropico 2 (yes, my islands also melted but heck I made millions!).
If you can get your hands on Grim Fandango (adventure), I highly recommend it. It's old and the graphics are blocky, but the humor is unforgettable and the puzzles are not too easy/hard.
If you're into sneakiness and stealing, you HAVE to try Thief 2. Excellent game! Some scenarios are a little creepy, but still exhilirating. You may forget to breathe.
Regina:
I can't play anything where I might forget to breathe! I do that often enough anyway--I'd be found passed out on the floor if I played that! LOL
