One of the more interesting games I used to play was Black & White, where you essentially ruled over a bunch of humans as a god and chose whether you wanted to be cruel or benevolent. A lot of other titles who tried to do this formula after Lionhead Studios had a habit of getting it wrong. Enter: Crest!
