 Old Sims are the best sims! September 12, 2005

The Pharaoh-Cleopatra city/civilization building sim is still one of the best made even after a half dozen years. I much prefer it over many of the newer sims of a similar nature such as "Children of the Nile", The Settlers: Hertitage of Kings, etc.. Pharaoh-Cleopatra's graphics are much crisper and more detailed than the newer crap. Pharaoh-Cleopatra was one of the first and still might be the "Gold Standard"! And if you enjoy Pharaoh-Cleopatra, give Emperor: Rise of the Middle Kingdom or Zues-Poseidon a try. These "older" sims can now be had for less then 20 bucks!

I love this game.
I won't bore you with all the techy stuff..suffice to say, if you
like building games like Sims, you will like this.
You learn a lot about ancient Egypt which is a big plus for
homeschoolers. They can have fun while learning.
Cleopatra expansion lets you edit the maps and build your own
empire from the bottom up.
You can set up your own trade routes add whatever you like,
build up whatever military you want, even number of ships and soldiers, etc.
The cheats will let you have more playing time by letting you add
more money to the treasury, or add some fun,
like adding mummies or hippos rampaging all over your city.
But, be careful with that one, they don't go away!
This game is tops in my book.
That's why I have been playing it steady for over 5 years.
Bottom line: It's fun and that's what a gaming is supposed
to be.

I can spend five hours playing this game and not get bored. That's how I feel about most of these city-building games like Zeus: Master of Olympus and Caesar 3. The only thing I didn't like about this game was that you always had to put the industrial buildings very close to the homes or else there'd be no workers. Unfortunately that brings down the neighborhood appeal, and then your houses devolve. Also the gods can be somewhat hard to please. Of course, since the mission editor comes with this game, you could always edit a custom mission and limit the gods to 3 or so. Overall, this is a great add-on to an already fantastic game.

I enjoyed this game. Of all the sim games I prefere the ones like Pharoah, Cleopatra, Zues and Emperor: Rise of the Middle Kingdom.
