This is the best Total War game ever made, along with the expansion. The only thing that should be improved is the diplomacy, could be a perfect game if it worked better.
You could fight incredible medieval fights and with the expansion, even experience firearms. Each faction has it's bonuses, agents of many kinds, you could send units without generals to defend, attack, reinforce....
Always loved defending a castle here against armies 3x times higher with rains of samurai arrows.
An evolution to the Total War series (and apparently the naming format). The Sengoku era of Japan (and the latter Fall of Samurai expansion) truly bring out a charm out of the game. The sea combat and sieges are difficult to master, but land battles were somewhat simplified into rock-paper-scissors units. And the major change here is that the general is not a hero, but just an element in the background that needs to be protected. But the battles themselves were amazing, especially with one-on-one Samurai battles with fluid choreography.
Multiplayer was also fun, wherein the other players don't need to wait all the time but can get to control units in other players' battles. Really great to have experienced that with my brother.
As always, would love to get the whole series on GOG one day.

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.
