any suggestions? I have a 19 yr old daughter that was consumed by WoW, but I can't see paying to play a game that I bought
I recomend "Thief" A first-person-stelth game. (weapons: bow-n-arrow or black-jack)
After you finish the boxed games (Theif I, II, III. about a dozzen missions each) there are about a thousand fan made missions you can download for free. About 3 hours adverage playing time.

Collecting is a disease = Obsessive-Possessive Disorder.

Slabbing Undergrounds is sacrilege.

The phrase "Action 1 of the Undergrounds"
makes my skin crawl.

Thief was a great game. If I'm not mistaken, the same folks helped develop Ultima Underworld I and II, so if you like RPGs, you might want to check those out, too, if you don't mind older graphics.
