Master of Magic is my favorite 4x game. It's ancient (1994!), it's single-player only, it's buggy, it's unbalanced, & the AI is unstable to say the least, but there is just something about the synergy of the magic system, race variations & combat engine that keeps sucking me back into it after 17 years. Even after all this time there are serious bug-fixing & modding efforts underway for this classic game.
It should be mentioned that Master of Orion & Master of Orion 2 were both made by Simtex, the creators of Master of Magic & are excellent games in their own right.
Alien Crossfire & Alpha Centauri are a close third, followed by Civ IV.
That game is more like Grand Theft Auto in space.
