Whenever I think of the Roman Empire, I think of this game. I used to play it until the explored (and conquered) map got too huge for my PC at the time to load. Every sound, every track of music is immediately memorable and every line is quotable. UNIIIIITS! FORM TESTUDO!
the number one Total War game in the series ! Especially the Original Version for me. So many memories and moments from this game... if it comes to GOG... this platform will gain lots of new users.
This one was the breaking point of RTS games for me. The 3D epic battles where unit types, positioning, and tactics really mattered - including the sieges - blew me away. Add to that the grand campaign map which let you evolve your cities and family, whilst conquering the world with your nation (and reading some important quotes on loading screen) really brought this game to a peak. And the historical scenarios - whilst really difficult - were also very fun to play.
I still own a CD for the Gold Edition (which includes the Barbarian Invasion - also amazing - expansion), and hope to one day see this one and the whole series on GOG one day.
I remember playing this game with my friend.. got my ass handed to me every single time :( but i knew it was a good game, the game is quite old by now, but that alone in my opinion makes it a great candidate for GOG plus, as far as i know this game has no licensed things in it (ei: music, real life brands, etc. etc..)

RollerCoaster TycoonThe premise of the game is to complete a series of preset scenarios by successfully building and maintaining amusement parks through business ownership as a theme park entrepreneur. The key to any park is building a large amount and diverse range of rides for the visitors. Players can choose from dozens of roller coaster types and can also build log flumes, carousels, bumper cars, haunted houses, go karts, ferris wheels, and swinging ships, among other rides. The intensity and type of rides must be balanced, as visitors' preferences vary significantly from person to person. For example, some guests prefer exciting rides and have high nausea tolerance levels, while other guests are just the opposite.Sandbox Business

Crimson SkiesThe series is set within an alternate history of the 1930s invented by Weisman and McCoy. Within this divergent timeline, the United States has collapsed, and air travel has become the most popular mode of transportation in North America; as a result, air pirates thrive in the world of Crimson Skies. In describing the concept of Crimson Skies, Jordan Weisman stated he wanted to "take the idea of 16th century Caribbean piracy and translate into a 1930s American setting."Action Fantasy Historical Warfare
