    Steam has a 4X sale going on now and the latest Theme Hospital spiritual successor made two spinoffs.

    They made a sequel to Evil Genius in 2021.

    Whatever interests from the late 20th century you think only you had are almost certainly disappointingly mainstream now.

    But hey, keep at it. I’m still holding out hope for EA pulling off a Dungeon Keeper sequel at some point even if it’s a PR stunt.

      My wife just picked Black & White (2001) back up. That game has held up better than I’d ever have expected.

        The B&W games feel weirdly… mobile these days. They put a lot of work into that 3D hand interface and it turns out they just ended up stumbling upon a semi-competent touchscreen UX.

      You’ll want to check out “Dungeons”. I recently played Dungeons 3 and it is basically an improved dungeon keeper except you can go into the overworld too.

        I played them all. They’re not the same.

        I’d say that Evil Genius sequel is the closest we’ve had, honestly.
