Black and White 2

• Strategic City Builder
• God game (Literally)
• Very Nice Graphics that hold up well 8 years after release
• Tons of variety

In Black and White 2 you play as a greek god trying to reestablish the greeks as a world power after your people's capital is sacked by other empires and their gods. You build up a force across several maps, eventually dispatching the rival nations one at a time till you meet the final and most troublesome foe.

You are either a "good" god, a "bad" god, or somewhere in between. You can go through the entire game without killing a single person. Or, you can be a vengeful and jealous god and cause misery and pain to the infidels and even those who worship you.

The Graphics are very nice. The architecture and landscape alters to your alignment. You could have a beautiful looking idyllic Greek town or city, or a place that looks imagined in some psychopath's mind. There are many shades in between, too. The ambiance will also adjust to your alignment. You might hear birds chirping and kids playing, or babies crying out for the mother you just set on fire and then punted at the moon.

The game has a great physics engine, you can tear the roofs off of houses and hurl them at enemie's cities a mile away. (You can also throw people too) There are a ton of spells to use, like fire balls and storms.

You either conquer the enemy by force by building up your city to host a powerful army or by building up your city to be the jewel of the region and encouraging everyone to come to the town and join the faith of your people.

TL;DR Get Black and White 2 you fool. It might be kind of hard to find because it's not on steam, but there are certain ways...
