Let me know if I missed something, and I will try to get it added.

Other consoles and genres will come in sporadic subsequent threads. Please contribute to previous threads if you missed them. This is meant to be an exhaustive list.

Expanding on your choice(s) is definitely a plus. Not everyone knows about or has played non-mainstream titles.

    personally I have always loved this jank but extremely ambitious game from the 90s Imperialism II . the thing that's really interesting is you have to manage a labour pool that has increasing demands, you have to feed that labour pool, you can only recruit units from that labour pool, the economy is physically built on the map by connecting resources via roads to the capital so they can then be worked by the labour pool. you then use the products your workers make to produce more units, more roads, and continue the infinite expansion of imperialism. the diplomacy and war systems are very very dated, but I have always adored the economy in this game so much and the early game scramble for the new world
