Maybe a good list to pick a new clone from, or a place to visit when brainstorming.

See also: Games That I Love (favorites)
Inspired by NaNoWriMo's "magna carta"s, this is a list of things in games that I've liked.
They are here as inspiration, motivation, and as a tribute. I hope to borrow/steal/remix/create with this, to give my own games a bit of the joy these brought me.
These should help step towards the principles I care about in games. What themes are threaded through all these?

Games have always been a passion of mine - I love finding games in which the devs made something they wanted to play, something that didn't adhere to some generic idea of what a game should be. As a result I love indie games and tend to abhor games with large budgets but bankrupt creativity.
I hope to continue to pull the likes/themes over to the gaming magna cartas.
A Dino game.
