Overview
Description

Black & White 2 is an acclaimed god simulation and real-time strategy game where you act as a deity summoned from the void by desperate refugees. Shape the destiny of your followers by developing their civilization through peaceful city-building or brutal conquest, while nurturing a massive physical avatar—ranging from an ape to a tiger—whose alignment reflects your moral choices. Building upon the foundation of the original game, this sequel introduces full-scale warfare and fighting units as you lead your chosen civilization across various lands to defeat rival empires like the Norse, Japanese, and Aztecs. Balance your divine miracles, manage your economy and population's desires, and fulfill an ancient prophecy to achieve ultimate dominance over the world.

Train Fever puts you in charge of a transport company in 1850, letting you design rail networks, construct stations, and purchase vehicles to meet the needs of expanding cities. The game features a dynamic city simulation where towns evolve based on your logistics decisions, creating a living world that reacts to supply and demand.
