I've been reminded of a Maxis game that I really wanted to play back in 1993/94 - Sim Life.

Genetic Engineering was the hot new pop science thanks to Jurassic Park, so yeah, it definitely was a good time for Maxis to put out something that lets you tinker with the stuff of life itself... and make all kinds of strange chimaeras.

The cover for Sim Life itself is one of the most nostalgic for me, it captured my attention like little else at the time.

Amazing striped, fuzzy rhinos, here I come!
