Worthwhile demo
I just finished the demo and it was fun. The game gave me a simplified King of Dragon Pass vibe. There are at least 4 resources to manage: Food, Culture, Construction and Authority. The tutorial is very clear and I found most everything quite intuitive. If one likes turn-based strategy games, then you should definitely at least try the demo.

Highly playable and interesting demo
I just finished playing demo of the Egypt - Old Kingdom and I liked it a lot, so I immediately installed this one to try. Both games are very similar with some minor changes of the basic mechanics. It's very straight forward and easy to learn and most importantly highly playable and interesting. At the beginning the graphics seemed a little bit basic and simple but while playing the game I started appreciating the general art of the game more. The mechanics are standard tactical turn-based strategy type - you have a day to make a move and than you pass a turn. You have various resources that you need to manage, gods to worship and technologies (skills) to improve. All the history data in the game seems to be accurate and up to date. The demo is shorter than the other one and you can finish it in 10-30 minutes, but it is enough to get the gist of the game. I wish other developers would take this as an example and always provide us with demos before the final release, it's a nice and transparent way to do business.

Easy to grasp, but not dumb
I found it thoroughly entertaining. I had a feeling of fragility of my nation; I had to be preared for challenges that could alter history of my Egypt forever. There's a lot of criticism of "linearity" - yes, it allows you only to follow predestined path for Egypt, albeit the order of things is slightly up to you. Bat also, if you are slacking at following the challenges, it can do collectively so much harm, that you won't be efficient anymore - you will slide to Game Over. It's not too forgiving. I recommend saving every 5 turns, independently from autosave, because who will here admit completing it whole rogue-style? Iron-man mode? Very unlikely. For the replaybility, I agree - none. But it took me mimimal 12 hours to finish it. I may also say it has pretty elegant design - mechanics are easy, and game teaches you those one small step at a time - but it goes smoothly with gameplay, and you cannot accidentally break the game. As for graphics -- they don't hurt eyes, they are very clear and informative. It's like civilization, with 1 civ, but with story, given through short paragraphs and nice drawings. Demo is free on gog and it lets you continue your save in retail! Well worth on sale or not.

Mobile game, not much history...
Very simple game without much history. I would not compare it with any non-mobile game. Not my thing, but good for them for providing a demo.
