Simulation was quite detailed, but the tutorial mode was endlessly buggy, controls poorly designed, and the overall experience very unpolished. Graphics awful.
 
Played this endlessly, online and local. Deep yet easy to pick up. Lots of creative alternate modes from the community. Excellent music.
 
Essentially just Worms Armageddon 1.1, but what's wrong with a little polish being put on an already very strong game? Only wish WormPot had a random spin mode.
 
One of LucasArts' best old adventure games. Intriguingly shows its ancestry in text games. Consistently funny, especially the pun-based swordfighting.
 
As a child, this game blew my mind. Humorous environments, simple puzzles (but more than enough for young me), a top-notch kids' game.
 
A children's game from the crew that would go on to make Myst. Fun, exploration-heavy, easy but age-appropriate puzzles. Loved this one as a kid on my old Mac.
 
One of the first pet sim games, still holds up quite well. Pets have strong personalities, direct line to your heartstrings. Try putting cats and dogs together.
 
Like Myst, very beautiful and peaceful. Puzzles beat the crud out of me, but even using a walkthrough I had a highly enjoyable time working through this game.
 
Classic for a reason, but unfortunately doesn't hold up nearly as well as Riven. Peaceful, yes, but also frustratingly slow, with inconsistent detail.
 
Really wanted to like this; the idea of an online puzzle world is great, as is this game's art style. However, awful awful controls utterly ruined it.
 
Weak level design and utterly excessive amounts of painstaking collection. The N64 has much better platforming games.
 
A fun if unsubtle 3D platformer, back when everybody was trying to figure out how to make their own Mario-esque mascot. Filled with movie and TV references.
 
This is a tough call. I really like this game's art direction, and the action gameplay is alright for its time. But, grinding always gets a game on my bad side.
 
I've clocked many hours with my friends on this game. Slightly quicker paced than its sequel; both games have their advantages. Full of Nintendo fanboy service.
 
Intriguing premise that isn't really borne out. The musical aspect is pretty superficial; you're left with a fairly average trance-themed shooter.
