A great game of my childhood. I loved that you can mix turrets and units. Like a tank with a laser gun or the same tank with a rocket launcher, but both weapons can also be build on a atst like walker

I love this game; it would be special to have it on GOG. I have spent many hours on it and hope for a version that works on modern Windows PCs. Come on, CDPR and GOG, bring this game to us :)

How i wish to play this again. And how i dream about a Remake :D. Its so simple to build your own units modular, but its one of the best mechanics in games i ever saw. And unbelievable, one of the rarest oO.

In Computerbild Spiele 2/2000 it became game of the month (test result 1.49). A complete solution was published in Computerbild Spiele 3/2000. And Thandor is included on the CD in the magazine 6/2001 I played with my brother a lot.

This game had great mechanics and unit personalization. Awesome memories with it, I with it could be available as I can't make it run in anything further than windows XP
The game is part of german gaming history. Compared to C&C it has its own charm. I distinctly remember the narrator calling out the unit names. The soundtrack is great and the customizable options with the weapon types is a clever idea. This game would make a perfect addition to gog's library, especially considering you can't run it on modern systems right now.

I played a lot of RTS games in my early ages and i must say that Thandors research system of different weapons and then the combination with different unit-bases was a highlight for me. It allowed a bunch of customizable armies which i thoroughly enjoyed. Of course there were obvious better ones especially considering the pathing, but high replayability nontheless.
Those games also need your vote!

Zoo Tycoon: Complete Collection
Zoo Tycoon: Complete CollectionAn insidiously addictive simulation game, Zoo Tycoon allows players to create their own zoo, but not just any zoo. It's completely free-form: Start with fences for your exhibits, then pick animals and give them toys, foliage, and anything else you want. For your customers, you can lay down paths to lead them around, then add food stands, amusement rides, even maps and trash cans. Not sure what you need? The zoo advisors will tell you how to make the animals happy, and the customers themselves will tell you what they're looking for, be it snacks, more animals, or anything else. There's also a vast amount of background information on each critter--its diet, its habitat, etc.--which can be useful when you're adding a macrauchenia or a Loch Ness Monster. In all, you can choose over 100 animals, plus countless habitat and park embellishments.
