The sequel to the innovative strategy game by Peter Molyneux, once again offering the players an opportunity to play a god. The action of Black & White 2 takes place in the same world, and our task is to assume divine control over a chosen tribe of worshipers. The gameplay mechanics were not significantly changed, although the continuation is more combat-focused than its predecessor, and the constant choosing between good and evil remains the key issue. Depending on one's play style, the direction in which our tribe develops may, and will, change as well; we ourselves can influence it to focus more on the economy or the military. Furthermore, the so-called familiars still play an important role in the game. The creatures became more intelligent, though, and can be assigned more complex tasks than before.

An unusual strategy game with RPG features, developed by the British Lionhead Studios under the lead of a legendary developer, Peter Molyneux. Black & White takes us to the world of Eden, where a long-standing harmony and balance between the humans and the nature is disrupted by the appearance of many deities, whose untamed craving for power leads to countless conflicts and wars. We take role of one of such gods, with our task being to teach and guide our followers, as well as raise a familiar - a powerful creature that will assist us in fights and help control our tribe. Depending on our preferences, we can become a god loved by our people or a merciless tyrant ruling through fear. Our choices will also impact the growth of our familiar, which can turn into friendly and helpful entity or a fearsome monster.

An unusual real-time strategy game developed by Crytivo Games. We control a small society from a level of a tribe up to the era of great galactic empires. The Universim is based on the typical elements found in grand strategy games. Our duties include leading the society through the next stages of technological growth up to a level that allows us to colonize entire star systems. The game begins on a small planet with a group of tribesmen. From that moment, we shape our society through city building, resource gathering, creating a healthy economy, and conducting research on new technologies. The whole process is quite relaxed and player-friendly, introducing a number of alternative ways of attaining our goal. The gameplay is also enriched by random events that force the player to respond in time and modify his development strategy.

An original open-world game combining elements typical for titles such as Spore or Minecraft. The game was created by Arc System Works, and the TOYBOX Inc. studio led by Yasuhiro Wada - the father of the Harvest Moon series. Birthdays the Beginning casts the player in the role of a creator of worlds, whose goal is to create a planet, along with a breathing ecosystem rich in life. Once a universe has been generated, the player decides about topography-related aspects through raising mountains and creating valleys where water, the source of life, can gather. What's more, the player has to provide things such as adequate temperatures. At the beginning, the player uses simple, unicellular organisms that get to inhabit the game world. Later on, the player leads them through subsequent stages of evolution - from different plants and dinosaurs, through creatures resembling present-day animals, and ultimately to reach humanoid beings. Birthdays: The Beginning offers colorful, three-dimensional visuals accompanied by a light atmosphere.
