I got a new gaming laptop and I feel like a kid in a candy store. Has over 1 TB and I downloaded a few games from Steam like Skyrim, Starfield, Oblivion, and a police simulator. Any recommendations whether it is old or newer? I like games like the Sims and Civilization so anything like that would work. Or Dynasty warriors. Are any Baldur’s Gates worth it? I played those old Sierra games as a kid. I may download Leisure Suit Larry since that was one I always wanted to play but knew my parents would’ve thrown a fit. Thanks in advance

Is that like RISK on steroids?
In a manner of speaking. Essentially, you build up cities and armies on a turn based world map. Building up your cities let’s you gain more income to support bigger armies, as well as unlocking new units to make up your armies. And much like IRL, your army is typically going to be made up of mostly militia or regular forces, with elites being rare due to high upkeep cost.
While it is turn based on the overworld, when your army attacks a city or another army, it turns into a real time battle, where your army is made up of what you actually brought, and you move them regiment by regiment.
For the better ones, I would recommend Total War Rome 2, Shogun 2, Fall of the Samurai (a standalone expansion for Shogun), Attila (the hardest one though), or Three Kingdoms.
Also, for city builders, Cities:Skylines 2 is about to come out and it looks like a pretty major step forward for the genre.
Thank you sir
