Children of the Nile: Enhanced Edition

I can't describe in words how many hours I have lost to this game and how painful it is for me to play right now.. I played this game when it first came out and had way too many "Oh ♥♥♥♥, I have to work in the morning!" moments with it. Functionally, it's still viable, but technically it has fallen way behind the times. Whoever owns this IP now, needs to wake up. You're still selling this game and taking money from people, but you haven't modernized it in any way. If you read the discussions, there are folks who can't even play the game due to CtD failures. For some, it won't even launch, let alone crash. The game does not support modern monitors, HDR or any of the modern basic graphics settings. You have to modify the .cfg just to tell the game to run in windowed mode. They released an overhaul update in ~2014 or so, it's time for a refresh. At this point, they're just stealing money from gamers who want a sniff of nostalgia, or maybe are trying to pass on a legacy to the next generation. Do better.

LOVE IT! Played since its release and often replay the game, love being a pharoah, and love egypt in general, not really had issues with it, runs at 4k fine and its probably one of the best egyptian city builders i know, highly recommend it

I couldnt get into this game much until I installed the 3x walk speed hack. It really seems a lot of the game's bugs have to do with sims picks non optimal destinations and end up stuck somewhere. Making them walk faster has solved all the problems for me. The game does become significantly easier with the patch but city builder games are never difficult to play to begin with...

Історія Єгипту Дуже непогана стратегія з глибокими механіками і автентичним відчуттям керування світом. Загалом непогана картинка(якщо відблизити звісно і не придивлятись), гарний звук, але все ж у цій грі ключову роль відіграють саме механіки, і вони наближені до реального життя з його правилами і соціальними обмеженнями, задля цього і варто у неї пограти фанатам гарних стратегій

I want a remake.

This is best city-builder about ancient Egypt you could ever find so far, with citizens/politics/diplomacy management. I have played this game as child a lot when it was released, still holding my old CD (!) Big Box edition and I'm very glad it works without any problems even on modern computers. Graphic is still good and music, oh boy, the music is soo Good and relaxing. Game also has build in map editor for scenario's/campaign so you never run out of content to play with. 10/10, Old but Gold.

PLEASE SOMEONE REMAKE THIS GAME, DONT REMOVE ANY FEATURES. YOU CAN ADD THOUGH LOL

Играл в детстве. Играл в молодости. Всё ещё захожу и играю. Очень приятная игра и симулятор человечков для своего времени, очень жаль что серия так и не увидела дальнейшего продолжения. С удовоствием купил бы ремастер с новой графикой. Даже на сегоднешний день мало игр сравнится с Детьми нила, близкая по духу из нового только если Фарзест фронтир. 10 из 10

Could not make it to work more stable and in a fun way. resolution + UI/text scaling can be a little problematic more so on higher res or bigger screens. it seems like a decent game, would be nice if there was a remake?
