A good God Game ? The Dungeon Keepers 1 & 2, and another one, still in Beta, War for the Overworld, which is very close of Dungeon Keepers and very promising.

wow no one knows about Impossible Creature huh ?? it was the one my fav. good god game cause if you play that game you'll know

It's not really a "god game" though - Just a plain old RTS with DNA mechanics. And there are several of those. Still a damn good game (Except for a few incredibly overpowered combinations)

yeah I agree with that statement. I knew someone who ran an independent game shop and when buying from EA they were charged £44.98 which they then would have to sell at £44.99. If they raised the price any higher they would not get any sales. The would make 1p from each game from EA they sold. Other companies were a lot better with their prices.

For the most part, anything that EA touches got to shit. I think that's the bottom line.

Bullfrog was also brought up by EA and then disbanded. I enjoyed the fable series of games. Yes they could have been better. The only one I have not played is Fable the Journey.

No no. Spore is from Maxis (Or what used to be Maxis - Now it's just another EA studio only kept alive through name

). You know - Simcity, Sim... Well anything starting with SIM___ really.

Peter Moleneux worked/lead on most Bullfrog games back in the day, then Lionhead (Fable/Black & White) and now Godus with his new studio, 22Cans.

One of the greatest Hipes and then dissapointments in Game History.

It was a brilliant Idea but utterly made into sh*t by him and EA.

After Black and White 2 and this i decided also never to buy a game from Peter Molyneux again.

Um, no, Spore is only a crime Will Wright committed. Not all evil comes forth from P. Molyneux.

And actually I had more fun with Fable 3 than with Fable 1 (but didn't ever play Fable 2, as it was never released for PC)

Also Fable 1 was a very hiped and then a dissapointment...but still a good game i liked.

(But mostly because of the brilliant Valiant "Jack of Blades" maybe one of the best antagonists in Game History)

But Fable 2-3 was then again totaly crap.

Molyneux been in the industry a long time several of the studios he created were brought out by other companies like EA. First game I played of Molyneux was Lemmings. I never tried Black and White 2. I did play the first one. Mega lo Manic was probably the first game that I played of this Genre.

Haven't tried Reus (though I bought it) and put some time into Godus, which I had soooo much hope for after Populoous and Black and White 1, and this game is a total piece of shi.... OMFG, unless 22Cans does something miraculous, this is the last thing I every buy from Molyneux.

Hey guys, I was looking for a good god game - like From Dust, Black & White 2 or the upcoming Godus. Though these games seem great, I want to know if there are any other good god games. Preferentially, I wouldn't like very old games, since they wouldn't run on my Windows 7. I would also like a Greek mithology themed, if possible.

Reus is more of a puzzle and godus, while real fun, has some limitations on the "god" side.

Despite how absolute holy tits Overlord 1 and 2 are, they're not god-games.

Populous, Black & White, From Dust is all I can think of, but thay've already been listed.

There really aren't enough of them to suggest "good ones" over bad ones (Well aside from the horrendous)

And Wikipedia lists a lot of games that have nothing to do with "God gaming" on that list. Dungeon Keeper, Spore and Startopia being among them. A builder does not a god game make.

More help then this I cannot give you, as I have never played a god game. And since the list is rather short - it should not be to hard figuring out what games you might like.

Thanks, I'll take a look at the list.
