Sid Meier's Colonisation, my 10 year old laptop that I replaced last year only had enough power to play that game and I put so many hours into it when I didn't have access to my main pc. It's just a shame that my new laptop doesn't upscale dosbox the same way my old one did but I think that's just because of the differences between MacOS and Windows.

(Edit: wrote the wrong game series somehow)

So many amazing games to choose from such as all the D&D based ones, Morrowind, the SimCity ones and the Championship Manager games, but my absolute favorite was Fallout 2 for sure!

Syndicate and Wing Commander Privateer

Shattered Galaxy, it marketed itself as an mmorpgrts. The depth of gameplay was fantastic. While the graphics look a little dated, I would still play it if there was any server population left.

MGS 1 for obvious reasons.

Blitz and NBA street 1&2 were definitely some faves.

Jet Moto series.

Jet grind radio had so many hours sunk into it.

Resident evil 1-2 was absolutely terrified of these games but couldnโ€™t stop playing and quickly became a favorite of me and my dad.

Subspace - Meet people from all over the world, and then kill them.

One of the first online multiplayer games. It has a very long skill curve, and a ton of variety in game types.

It's still alive in Steam as Continuum!

The 90s were peak gaming for me - a lot a creative things were going on, new genres being explored. And we were spoilt for choice with all the blatant piracy.

But if I had to choose one game that really blew me away, that would be Thief.

I loved the game Tomba! 2 The Evil Swine Return, it was creative, intricate, and very far ahead of its time, I would love to see the series get a reboot or a remaster
