Pharaoh + Cleopatra

I played this game way back when, and I loved it, but lost the CD for it. When I found it on steam, I was happy, and played it for many dozens of hours, but set it down for a few years. Then, yesterday, I got the itch and booted it up. Turns out, none of the building animations work anymore. Reinstalling doesn't fix it. This breaks the feel of the game, you can't tell who has employees or not, who is working, what needs attention.

Love this game on my Lenovo go....but just stopped working...gutted

Jogo muito bem feito, ainda mais pensando na época em que foi lançado. Toda hora, há algo a se fazer, de modo que o jogo não fica entediante em momento algum.

I began playing this when I weas a teenager, back before Pharaoh had the Cleopatra expansion pack. Games like this, Civilization, and Age of Empires had a knack for fully immersing me. I've never beaten the expansion pack portion of this, but it's a goal for me this year. I just really feel like committing the time required to do it finally. There's just so much to love. In particular, the music, the voice acting, the little blurbs of historical facts and situations regarding trade routes just suck me in. You're given options on some missions to focus on cultural achievements rather than battle focused missions. I've completed multiples of both. Both are challengi3ng, though the cultural ones involving building the mastaba and whatnot have a tendency to take longer due mostly to the sheer amount of resources needed to gather to complete. I also enjoy that you have to keep the gods appeased by throwing festivals and building temples. This affects so many aspects of your game, most notably the inundation of the Nile. If you have a farm based mission level, this can absolutely leave you flopping around without the ability to feed your population. Honestly, this is just one of those niche games for people that love strategy and simulation missions. Bonus points if you're into Egyptology.

Sou suspeita em falar desse jogo pois amo a estratégia, indico sim , gosto demais de poder construir as cidades e vencer as missões

Great Game

Good old gaem

nice game

Coming from Zeus, this is like pulling teeth. If the gods weren't building my pyramids, nobody would be. Farm fully staffed, granary fully staffed, "I'M NOT MOVING UNTIL SOMEONE CAN UNLOAD THESE GOODS." Delivery people blink in and out of existence at their storehouses, apparently unable to "get" goods. Seth is a liar. Not ONCE has he stricken down anyone invading my cities. Mission descriptions will say "You can import [resource]." You cannot. Looking at guides for the original, you'll see mentions of trading partners that simply do not exist in this version. I was supposed to be getting a steady supply of plain stone delivered to my by dear Pharaoh, but he stopped, despite me emptying my coffers and storehouses every time he asked. Again, I had to rely on the gods to build my pyramids. I plan to power through, but I don't know if it's actually possible.
