Fun! Fun! Fun! October 20, 2008
This game was a great buy! You can create your own scenarios or go through an entire family history up until you are Pharaoh. You can name your own family, too. Easy to understand interface and you can change the speed of the game as well. It was great fun to see Egypt develop over time with each generation. Also, appeasing the gods was fun..if you didn't build enough temples/shrines, they would get all jealous or angry, and cause calamity to fall upon your city. It's just another great city building game!!

I love this game and have loved in since it first came out. You start with simple city building and pretty straightforward missions. WIth each leve it gets more complicated as you manage various areas of the city you build, run the goventment and keep enemies at bay.
This is a game I will start playing and realize hours have passes as I try to keeep the Egyptian Gods appeased while staving off Malairia and buliding my mastaba before the palace treasure goes broke.
You can play missions or enjoy all sorts of free play levels as well. If you enjoy this type of game, this one is great. My kids enjoy this one as well, as it is easy to understand and play.
The best game in my collection! May 6, 2005

I've had this game for years, almost as long as I've had my computer, and I still play it! It's challanging, but not frustrating or complicated, and I spend hours designing city layouts and constructing huge monuments. It's a challange to create the most efficent city I can, and that's what keeps me playing. Sure, it's not a high-stakes, shoot-'em-up game, it's a good, clean game for all ages, and I recommend it highly.
