Fine games with no violence whatsoever.

Dunno if it's been mentioned, but the upcoming game Dyson (uh, I mean, Eufloria) has no violence, unless you think that seedlings have feelings.

Miaghstir: No weblinked resources that I know of. Most of the information I've found in the various Myst games and books (the Books of Atrus, Ti'Ana, and D'Ni; as the Myst Reader) - and, yes, websites - have blurred together so I no longer know where I picked up each bit of information. Gehn is steadfast in his vision that he is the creator - and thus god - of the worlds he writes books for, while Atrus (the younger, not Atrus/Aitrus, father of Gehn - don't remember his stance, or even if it is revealed) and Katran/Catherine are of the opinion that there are an infinite number of worlds, and that by describing them in a "master book" (I forget what they're actually called) you merely create links to them, and then the smaller carryable (usual) linking books link to a passage within the master book and thus to a place in that world.
Also: In Myst, Atrus destroys the prison books in which his sons are trapped, but in Myst 4, they are back. (But then, some things that are said to be impossible, have been proven to be, in fact, fully possible - like linking to another place in the same world, and taking the linking book with you (both being discoveries/inventions by Yeesha, and being shown to the players in Uru.)

M15aNtHrOpE: I think it is entirely possible for the Books that Atrus destroyed to have been the Linking Books to those worlds. If I'm not mistaken, the brothers weren't trapped in the Prison worlds, but trapped between Ages in MYST 1(hence the few pages torn out and thus could not escape), but then it would be assumed that the brothers would have been killed in the canon ending.
According to the D'ni Restoration Council, there can be two Books for each Age: One is the Descriptive Book (your "master book"), which may in itself contain the Link, and also the Linking Book, for Ages for which a Link is not provided in the Descriptive Book.

According to what I have read (again, sorry, no link, only memory), the description book (thank you for the correct term) can be used to link as well, but since there is only one of it, and it's much too large and heavy to bring around with you, the smaller linking books are used instead.

GoliathSK: SimCity.
Zoo Tycoon.
Those two games (SC + ZT) can easily turn into a slaughterhouse. Natural disasters and escaping dinosaurs. =)

lol
At least they don't have blood.

Many adventure games (Myst I, II, III, The Dig, some Monkey Island arguably) would be non violent. Similarly, many "business" games : [Open]Transport Tycoon Deluxe, Railroad Tycoon, 1861,... Social violence, maybe. Sports game, obviously, depending on the game. And, obviously, Postal, which is a game about delivering mail.

violent games are only those realistic bloddy horrible games like left4dead resident evil gta 4 and other.
If sonic or mario is jumping on enemies heads, that doesnt mean those games are violent.
All strategy games are not violent, despite that you send hordes of your units to fight other enemies.
There are games for children, non-violent games, and violent games(sick ones :D )

well it's the old "super man isn't violent."
but then you have kids trying to jump off the roofs of buildings.
(XD)
will kids pretend to be sonic and mario? jumping on the heads of their friends and wearing cute little furry tails?

Dont talk nonsence.We both have common sense what is violent and what is not.We were kids too you know.And we were not doing any stupid things like jumping on other kids heads, well unless the kid is retarted then he is going to jump on anyones head whether he played violent games or not.

I jumped on a couple of kids heads, but that was because I was a bully.
I have two kids and they are very impressionable as far as that stuff goes, I talk to them and am able to give them an idea of reality, but I can imagine that if I hadn't done that, they very well could go around pretending to be video game characters.

well its better to give to a kid 3beer bottles and drink with him till he gets sick, rather than talk dont drink, dont drink :)
after having an insane headache he is bound to dislike alcohol.Same with cigarettes.

Yes, and this is why I don't hide those kinds of things from them.
Although their mom would rather they don't see nudity, I say given the proper context nudity is appropriate.
