What are some game series you would like to see revived? And if possible, which entry should the new game follow from? (piefed.social)

For example, for me, I would *love* a new Populous game based from what was done in Populous 3. That, and a new SimCity based on SimCity 4!

But they took out crash mode. Yeah, you could crash whenever in the open world, but I loved the puzzle game aspects of the old crash mode.

What kind of mode is that ?
'Cause there was a mode you were scored on the amount of mayhem you caused.

They had pre-arranged intersections with set traffic patterns and multipliers and stuff scattered about, so it was a puzzle as well as a driving challenge.

oh that's cool !

Crash mode was sort of like Angry Birds but with exploding cars and 10x the production value. You’d get score multipliers for causing the most damage possible.
