Dominion: SOG3 is at the top of my shortlist of childhood favorites! Some of my greatest middle school friendships were formed over the love of this game. Sure, we played all the awesome classics like the C&C series, Age of Empires, Warcraft, Dune II & 2000, Dark Reign, StarCraft, Total Annihilation, etc... but something about this game was magical. The umbilical system for base building was a fun nuance to me and it's the first time that I really came to appreciate the tactical value of cheap and plentiful vs expensive and durable faction units. The game play was fun and just the right amount of challenging for a pre-teen. It's a good example of a mid to late 1990's RTS with the typical formula: build your base, repel enemy incursions, amass your forces, and steamroll their base (simple, the way I like it). On a personal note- I enjoyed the soundtrack, which, oddly enough, reminds me of my favorite childhood dog. She was sick one day and resting on the couch while I was playing this game. At some point, I paused the game, sat down with her on the couch and comforted her for a while as the music played in the background. As a child absorbed in my own world, it's the first time that I remember being completely focused on caring for another and this soundtrack cements that wonderful memory. It warms my heart to know that this game has touched other lives and left lasting, joyful memories. Bringing this game back would be nothing short of a public service and should be part of every young RTS lover's "basic training". I've only written a handful of reviews in my entire life and I am thankful to have the opportunity to write this one. Please bring this game back, GOG!
