This is one of those games I remembered so fondly from my childhood but could never find after it fell into obscurity in the early 2000s. Then I found Planets.Nu, the successor to VGA Planets (yes, it carries the blessing of the game's creator) and I got immersed in it again.

Essentially a 12-player chess game where everyone moves simultaneously, with each race based on a popular Sci-Fi race, such as the United Federation of Planets (showcased here), the Borg, or the Rebel Alliance. Each race has its own unique traits, ships and has to contend with an equally unique, procedually generated galaxy with diverse natives, weather and other phenomena. A must-play-at-least-once for any self-respecting Nerd.
