Does anyone know of any good monster rampage games for the PC?

I used to love Crush, Crumble, and Chomp! for the Apple ][, and I’ve been looking for something similar for the PC for many years, without success. I know there’s Rampage (which I can play with MAME), but I’m less interested in arcade-style action gaming than a more turn-based style. Basically, what I’m looking for is a turn-based strategy game which allows me to play a monster rampaging through a large city, knocking buildings over and eating people.

Does anyone know of anything available along these lines?

Amazingly, there haven’t been that many in the last few years. Closest really would be something like Stubbs The Zombie (where you are the zombie and get to eat people) and Ghost Master. Those are really all I can think of at the moment, but I will see if I can find some more.

Yeah, I was familiar with Stubbs (Fallout 3 amusingly added high-level ghoul/zombie bosses which pull out internal organs and throw them at you in tribute), but I’d never even heard of Ghost Master. Looks interesting enough I may hunt down a torrent for it, although it’s still not really a giant-monster city-stomping game.

Heh, either torrent it or wait til Steam has another sale.
