Sounds a little like Sid Meier's original Civilization. ... a game that provided much-needed procrastination during many a final exam in college.

Civilization rules. I have a couple editions of it, including IV. You build up from a barbarian tribe to trying to win the space race (which I have yet to do before the cutoff date of 2050). It's impossilble to play for less than a few hours at a time.
I used to sit down to play on a weekend ... and look up at the clock again Thursday.

A friend of mine recently introduced me to this game called Cybernations, which has been a lot of fun. You create a nation, build up technology and soldiers, get into wars, and eventually build nuclear weapons. I just got my first nukes a few days ago.

SHALL WE PLAY A GAME?

LET'S PLAY GLOBAL THERMONUCLEAR WAR.

A STRANGE GAME.

THE ONLY WINNING MOVE
IS NOT TO PLAY.

HOW ABOUT A NICE GAME OF CHESS?

I was in Target today with my boys and saw STRATEGO!!! and almost bought it (unfortunately boys are only 5 and 7, so too young.) Now that was an addictive game.

I kicked my addiction of Tetris somehow in the mid '90s and thankfully have stayed on the wagon since.

Holy crap...my aunt gave me an original Game Boy with Tetris for Christmas (in the packaging and everything) and within a week I've become addicted.

I also think I'm starting to get carpal tunnel.
