Populous™: The Beginning

RTS where you make your Tribal Shaman into a god. Fun spells which adds a great depth to the gameplay. Summon Dragons Volcanoes Lightningbolts, Deadly Bees, Hypnotism, Spies, Fire Warriors, and more. Brilliant game. The death animation is very satisfying and the game overall has tons of briliant small details which are funny and enjoyable.

It's great to be able to play this game again. I remember having this game when I was a child. At the time I was fooling around with it not fully understanding the mechanics of the game. Now that I have it again I can play it with strategy. Thank you GOG.com for allowing me to play this game again!

Ah yes, playing the demo version of this was was simply not enough to satisfy my populous needs! Glad to see that GOG brings it back as this game deserves to be shown to everyone who has not experienced this classic beauty!

one of the best childhood games. Thanks GoG bringing this back and I loved it!

Thanks GOG, I still have my original discs for DK and this but they aren't usable on my current PC. Amazing then that these great games can be had for so little and I can now play em on my lovely macbook. Totally ace :) Games themselves need no review, they're unique and visionary creations you owe it to yourself to play. A great pity Peter Molyneux disappeared from the games world. The pre-baked DOS emulator works a charm btw - DK ran fine out of the box on OSX in hi-res - even with Window 7 x64 running in parallels at the same time (and with several instances of Visual C++ and eclipse open). Great stuff! Download without hesitation!
