I don't get why exactly the calendar needs to change? Because the seasons don't line up any more? I suppose over thousands of years the expectation when winter is happening will have moved as well. Or is it because days and years won't match with other planets? That's not something a calendar can fix.

And don't forget Desperados 3 which has a western theme.

So you haven't read the title either? This is about late dining - so showing the latest available option seems to be a good indicator for me.

What I meant was that it will not be that hard to replicate. It might feel complicated and deep but most likely isn't that complex. Sure - without analyzing the original source code (which isn't legally available as far as I know) - it might be impossible to recreate the exact behavior, but it should be possible to mimic the behavior - it might just take a few attempts to fine tune the input parameters.

Top 0% of games is a pretty narrow field... (⁠☉⁠。⁠☉⁠)⁠!

Demis Hassabis is a genius in the field of artificial intelligence, but the AI of Black & White is 20+ years old and runs on pretty limited hardware (by today's standards).

The "New" is part of the product name. You can only buy used ones or new old stock (as in old but unused).

I started playing it last year because my nephew wanted someone to play (apart from his friends at school). I kept playing it on a regular basis (I had bought the base game years ago, but have not paid anything since). I enjoy the colorful graphics which run fine even on my 10+ old gaming PC. Some rounds are short and you're dead within minutes but often I reach top ten, but even then the rounds aren't taking that long (20 to 30 minutes), which is something I like about the game, because I barely take the time to have hour-long gaming sessions any more. Despite its looks skill makes a difference when it comes to aiming and movement (most special weapons are movement skills). I mostly play the no building mode because I can't manage shooting and building at the same time.

And due to weird time travel mechanics also the last appearance of the time machine... 🖖

Are the two of them so different that it would matter?

Quake 3 Arena, but only if the tournament lasts no longer than 15 minutes. My heart can't take more...
