Well, what is was supposed to be anyway.

I liked Spore's tribal stage. In fact, they were mostly all really fun other than the civilization stage, which was just awful. Space stage was hit and miss.

If you saw the early demo you can see the game was going to be more complex, fun and better overall, instead of the dumbed down end version.

[Urist McScoopbeard]

I did not, alas.

A tribal simulator.  Set in some faux-paleolithic/bronze/iron age setting, where each individual of your tribe is unique, and due to time passing on a day by day basis, incredibly important numbers-wise.  You only control one individual, the leader, and your ability to control the others is dependent on their loyalty to you, with family members being available automatically ( although that can change over time ) and foreign individuals and enemies potentially being converted to your group.

King of Dragon Pass is probably the closest to that I've ever seen.

I myself want to have something like this but built as an RPG. Your PC is a Beowulf-like hero of a small hall in the midst of some great catastrophy, and only by going into the wilderness and slaying beasts, protecting the fields, seeking treasure, and finding isolated settlements to bring into the fold, can your people survive the Blood Moon or Fimblewinter or whatever.

Coruscant, the game.

That reminds me. Does anybody here by any chance have the expertise to create  3d digital models of the SimCity 2000 arcologies of a format suitable to stick into a SimCity Societies Destinations mod?

I wish that there was a game which had both real-time and turn-based gameplay and that you could switch between them at any time.

X-COM: Apocalypse does on the battlemap, I've heard. Haven't played it myself, though.

There is something like that in development: Eternal Winter.

There are a few squad-level games that let you pause the game and issue orders.

Gunlok is one such game that I have, which came out in 2000, and I think is an underrated game, although opinions seem pretty divided on the topic.

Hearthstone: Starcraft Edition.
Though frankly there's less potential for cards there because AFAIK HS cards are pulled from WoW and there's far more potential there than in the Starcraft games, but it would still be pretty fun to see.

...I should get Hearthstone at some point anyway, actually. I keep watching it but I've never played it. :p

Hinterlands does that in a very simplistic fashion.

How about an RPG where the frequency of leveling up increases rather than decreases as the game progresses. That would be cool.
