A turn-based strategy game with some RPG elements where heroes but also ordinary units as well are able to gain levels, abilities, spells. I remember playing the campaign with my friends which was very challenging but also fun as it requires the player to adjust and develop tactics to advance and defeat the undead hordes and other foes. I would like to see this game on GOG because I believe it is an hidden little gem that should be preserved.
The very first game I fell in love with to the point of making spreadsheets and enjoying grinding sessions - breaking camp improved HP/MP regen while forcing the group to be stationary, but still allowed casting spells and participating in combat when approached by an enemy, so I stationed my parties at spawn points of one desert level and kept killing the respawning foes. The virgin moment of feeling like I beat the system. It'd be magnificent to have this piece of my gaming history come back to life once more.

Black & White 2
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.

Monster Hunter
Monster HunterMonster Hunter is an online action-hunting game by CAPCOM for the PlayStation 2 released on March 11th, 2004 in Japan, and September 21st, 2004 in North America. The game is a fantasy hunting simulator filled with many deadly monsters. Like actual hunting, successfully killing or capturing the monsters requires significant strategy, skill and involved resource management. While initially considered a commercial failure, Monster Hunter would go on to become one of CAPCOM's highest selling franchises. Despite featuring an offline mode, Monster Hunter was primarily an online game. The official servers were shut down on December 31, 2007 in North America and Europe, and July 1, 2011 in Japan. This means that it is now impossible to play online on official CAPCOM servers. Despite this, the game still features a small active community on private servers.
