Best Ancient Egypt City Builder

I bought this when it was originally released and I cannot tell you how many hours I spent playing through Egypt's history (building temples, the sphinx, pyramids, etc.). I would bet that I have spent at least as long in Skyrim as I had playing this game. It's just hard enough to keep a person interested, but easy enough so that you don't get frustrated (I cannot say the same for the Caesar III game (road blocks would have been useful here). All in all Pharaoh & Cleopatra are both excellent games and the transition between the two is seamless. If you are looking for a city builder with nice hand-drawn graphics and an Egypt basis then this is the game for you. Just don't plan on doing anything else except working and playing this game for a few months.

A legend among city-builder

Augustus said once: "I found Rome a city of bricks, and I left it a city of marble". Pharaoh found it a city of marble, and turned it into a city of diamond... I still have the original CD somewhere, but bought it again at bargain price to have the Cleopatra add-on I never had back in the day. Pharaoh is the successor of Caesar III, and to me the best of the series, even compared to the games who came after (like Zeus) It took everything that was grand about C3 and made it even better. It is a game easy to pick up (if you never played a city builder before) and really challenging to finish, promising countless hours of play, either in story mode or sandbox. Now go build your own bronze age megalopolis and may Osiris be with you (and help you keep your granaries full)

A warm, rich and living game

You're here, in your living room on this afternoon. Winter is striking, rain hitting the roof as you sit down with your laptop in a comfortable chair besides the fireplace. You welcome some wandering immigrants, you only have your hospitality to offer. The harsh climate of Egypt will challenge you as you embark on this great adventure, months pass and your city is already home of a thousand souls, exporting goods, albeit an important debt in your treasury. But, wait, your Overseer of the Military has been informed of incoming enemies, ready to burn your city down. Luckily you're already prepared for this attack and you deploy your infantry and your warships on the war front. Peace has returned in your prosperous city as you return to your farms to grow some barley. It is that time of the year again, heavy rains are sweeping throughout Nubia, beyond the borders of Upper Egypt, water is flowing into the Nile. The Great Inundation soaks and fertilizes the farming grounds along the river, you honour Osiris for providing food for the coming year. All the festivities come to a sudden stop as Bast has sent her wrath on your population and a plague is killing all your dreams, you neglected her, you build her a temple hoping to never defy her again. It is Pharaoh's will to build a mastaba, another burial place in Nubt, your city, the city of our ancestors. The task is immense and you need to train workers to lay the bricks that you have imported at a high cost. As you stabilize you economy and start producing more Deben that you spend, you'll find yourself walking like an Egyptian on the road back from the Senet's house to your apartment, on the way you encouter your bazaar man, the local brewer and an Osiris' priest, you've sucessfully provided shelter for thousands of lifes in the warm heat of Egypt, but you're never safe here, a house in burning in the distance. The doorbell rings, it's already dark outside time flew by, the rain has stopped, and the fire still burns.

Most awesome game ever

Pharaoh is perhaps the most artistic, beautiful city game ever created and I've yet to see it topped. I was kind of sad when they announced they wouldn't be producing a Mac version but thanks to some vitalisation software I can relive and replay. If you haven't played Pharaoh before you are in for a unique and top of it's genre league experience!
