Black & White from Lionhead Studios released originally back in 2001 went on to great reviews, and won various awards. Sadly, it's one game that has also been lost to time but the openblack project plans to revive it with open source.

What I meant was that it will not be that hard to replicate. It might feel complicated and deep but most likely isn't that complex. Sure - without analyzing the original source code (which isn't legally available as far as I know) - it might be impossible to recreate the exact behavior, but it should be possible to mimic the behavior - it might just take a few attempts to fine tune the input parameters.
