Default Re: What other games complement your Dominions 3?

Lately my game plate is pretty sparse.
I have been playing the heck out of the free Digital Eel games just for some quick entertainment:
Big Box of Blox
Plasmaworm
Dr. Blob's Organism

Especially the Blox. It is like an insane Tetris, and I was never a big Tetris fan.

Probably the newest game that I enjoyed was Call of Duty 4. After you beat the campaign, you get a bonus mission involving a plane and terrorists. I must have played that mission 30 times. Easy, but fun as hell.

I briefly played a couple of rounds of Wesnoth not too long ago and still enjoy it.

I played quite a bit of Galactic Civ for awhile and purchased Sins of a Solar Empire. Big disappointment for me. It looks really good, but the way the whole pirate thing was handled just made me hate to play it. I finished one game and tried to start another, but just got to the point where I dreaded playing it. I imagine that I will go back to it some day and try to keep an open mind...

I am sort of looking forward to Spore, but a big part of me is afraid it will be a little too cute. By cute, I mean like the newer Sims cute. I really want to get excited about it, but I am afraid that I will be disappointed. The creature creator is good fun, but it won't take me long to get bored with it unless the Spore environment and game itself can draw me in. Conceptually, I find it fascinating.
