What the hell is a god game |
She gave you the examples right there (although I'd debate Minecraft as a god game).
Populous; Black & White; SimCity; Startopia.; Tropico. You play as a 'god', in that you're normally just a cursor and you shape things around you for whatever it is you're shaping (followers in populous, cities in simcity etc.)
I love this genre. It seems to be dying out, though (and it's pretty much dead on consoles, in any case).
