I love all of Spiderweb Software's games. There's tons of content in all of them, endless customization and story. But the best I've played is their OG series Exile 3 if you can find a way to run it.

I don't write reviews all that often, but I wanted to tell everyone how much I love the Geneforge games. I am glad Spiderweb is still around, and I am thrilled that these classic titles are getting some updates. I hope that there will be more of them released soon.

Turn-based point-and-click RPG where you summon monsters to help you fight. There are multiple factions in the game, so some of your choices have a huge impact on the game. It's a classic.
