Not that this is a huge deal, but GG is selling Northlandfor Mac. This and the others int he series are quite old at this point.
I think it is good to see this game coming out for sale as it is the next to last (I think) in the Cultures series of games.
I am hoping to see them all on GOG one day Cultures, Cultures 2, Northland, and 8th Wonder of the World.
It gives encouragement that these games will one day see life again.
I still own them all on disk, but I would buy them here DRM free for sure.
By-the-way, they are a slow paced city builder where people, professions, and products all have to be created and supplied in sufficient numbers to keep your village thriving in order to train military units.
The game boasted 200+ hours of game play, and they are correct, however you will spend many of those hours having children waiting for them to grow up and then learn their jobs so they can move on to other and greater jobs.
Fun game if you have the patience and desire.
