I played this exact version as a child - best game out there for city building during the pyramid times.

I liked the idea of building towards a goal. Its a fairly easy relaxing game.

I spent ages playing the original Pharaoh and similar games like Caesar, and this just ain't it. They've dumbed it down like a mobile game. Very disappointing.

I'm so excited that they were able to bring back one of my favorite games from the late 90s! There's some small glitches (like sometimes the boats float over land lol) and I miss having armies invade on the city itself (it's now in a pop up box, so there's not as much reason to build walls and towers) and being able to move the city around (used to be able to look at the city from different angles), but I do really like the additional city builds in the main play. I'm not sure whether the difficulty levels work, as they all seem to be the same difficulty,

3rd mission in and I wanted to kill myself. Damn annoying. Notifications constantly popping up. Kills immersion. The more I play the game the more I yearn to replay the original..

The only thing that ruined the game for me was the army battle system. Man, it was so cool to move the army to attack the enemy and everything, but now you just look at an image, and that's it. Very disappointing!!!
Does anyone know if there’s a chance they might release an update to bring back the old method?

It's a good game. The older ones were better. I still love it, but have to be in the mood to play it, not the first game I would pick up when gaming

Definitely not worth 20 dollars by itself but fine for a quick nostalgia trip.
Though I'll never forgive patching my girl's Bast's blessing exploits for infinite goods! smh

Great game. Love the challenge of building a bustling city as well as trading to building monuments. Lots to learn about the Pharaohs and Egypt too.

It's a fun game if you enjoy primarily a strategy game without being concerned about fighting wars all the time. IMO the game is more focused on city building, trading, and resource management. If that sounds like something you'd be interested in, give it a try.
