When my family first got a computer in the mid-late 90's, it came with two games: Tyrian (already in GoG) and Risk: The Game of Global Domination. I have memories playing with my dad and seeing how amazed he was to see this game on the computer screen. I became obsessed with the Ultimate Risk mode. I would choose a color to play with a specific country's flag and then think of it as an alternate history game and I was only 11. Since then the CD has been lost after several moves and I haven't been able to find a way to play it in almost 20 years. I would be very appreciative if it were added to GoG's catalog.
This was by far the best version of Risk ever made. I'd pay modern day AAA game prices to have it back. The fact that even if you can find a version of it the game would still be unplayable on modern systems is an actual travesty.

HeroQuest
HeroQuestThe famous fantasy-themed board game was converted into an isometric-viewed role playing game in which the evil Wizard Morcar must be defeated. You take control of a wizard, a dwarf, a barbarian and an elf, each with different strengths and weaknesses, who each start the 14 missions from opposite sides of the board. Strict turn-based movement rules apply, as actions other than movement can only be carried out before or after the move, the size of which is limited by a dice roll. These moves are carried out using an icon-based system. Characters can fight the many monsters which lurk, or cast spells to vanquish them. There are magic potions to uncover, but also hidden traps, so mapping is advised. Treasure can be collected, and traded at the shop after each level.

Zoo Tycoon: Complete Collection
Zoo Tycoon: Complete CollectionAn insidiously addictive simulation game, Zoo Tycoon allows players to create their own zoo, but not just any zoo. It's completely free-form: Start with fences for your exhibits, then pick animals and give them toys, foliage, and anything else you want. For your customers, you can lay down paths to lead them around, then add food stands, amusement rides, even maps and trash cans. Not sure what you need? The zoo advisors will tell you how to make the animals happy, and the customers themselves will tell you what they're looking for, be it snacks, more animals, or anything else. There's also a vast amount of background information on each critter--its diet, its habitat, etc.--which can be useful when you're adding a macrauchenia or a Loch Ness Monster. In all, you can choose over 100 animals, plus countless habitat and park embellishments.
