Sim Life
Okay, this game I would describe as maybe the original Spore. You can control almost every aspect of life for your planet, you can change evolution, and you can even change physics! This game is pretty fun with all of the things you can do, so if you have some hours or days to yourself give it a try.

Maxis once again lets you play God-- but in contrast to SimEarth's macro-management, Simlife lets you design and manipulate the genes of plants and animals to see how they behave in a simulated environment. You can manipulate many aspects of the world, such as water/land ratio, yearly temperature cycles, moisture, soil depth, and more. Simlife is a great game for anyone with a passing interest in genetics and ecology. The downside was that the game was a memory hog for its time-- requiring a whopping 4MB to run <EG> If you like to tinker with genetics, SimLife is one of the best electronic "toys" of its kind. Highly recommended! Note: this download is the rarer Windows version that works well on Windows 95 and above :)
