What classic game would you like to see remastered?

There are some great open-source remasters out there of classic titles including Civilization, Star Control II and Command & Conquer. But what deserving game has been overlooked? My pick: Railroad Tycoon 3.

Lemmings. It’s had some unique iterations over the years but I would like to see a revival and a new take on it.

There is Pingus (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pingus / https://pingus.seul.org/. IDK how well it holds up, but ofc it’s Free to be improved).

I'd like to see a remake of Major Havoc and a homage to the original arcade Battlezone. FWIW, Major Havoc recieved a "Director's Cut" a few years ago: https://mhedit.askey.org

I don't understand why I can't get Galaxians on my PS4?

Sometimes I just want an arcade experience rather than entering some epic world.

Rockstar Ate My Hamster. Please somebody remake it!

I remember playing that on the ZX Spectrum, back in the day!

There are still a copy of Spectrum games I play, but the most played is definitely "Chaos: The Battle of Wizards", by Julian Gollop. That was remadem as a kickstarter-funded project, but I have to say I've never even attempted to play the new version:

The original Deus Ex game and Jedi Knight and I guess all the other Dark Forces games while we're at it.

Shuffle puck and strategic conquest.
