Was one of the first games I played when I could afford the C64. Was a lot of fun working your character from a nobody to basically a leader. Plus it was made by Strategic Simulations. They made so many great titles. Like the other commenter said, you already have questron 2 and this would complete the series. From wikipedia: Questron was SSI's first RPG, and became the fastest-selling new game in the company's history at almost 35,000 copies in North America, more than triple the sales of the typical SSI game. It's a no brainer, please bring this to GoG!

Really enjoyable Ultima rip off with some gambling and arcade sequences. Since you have Questron II let's get I!!! I can still remember having to sort of skeet shoot balls to improve statistics.
Those games also need your vote!

Black & White 2
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.
