![]() ![]() ![]() For those who love creating perfectly beautiful laid-out cities with symmetrical gardens, it makes a world of difference to be able to make the designs match. Rather than just having a random garden design appear, you can choose the exact style, similar to selecting statues. One thing I particularly appreciated is that you can toggle the garden selection. Clicking on people will still get you a little soundbite of their voice, something I used to find so funny as a kid (I don’t know why), so I love that the remake kept it. The detailed world was always one of the biggest charms of the original series, and seeing it again brought back so many memories. When I first booted it up, it felt like I saw the game exactly how I remembered, with the sandy landscape, the Nile flooding, ostriches running wild, and little people rushing in to build their homes. However, Pharaoh: A New Era, a remake of 1999’s Pharaoh, is set to change my top choice. When I have a city-building craving it’s still my go-to, even 12 years later. While I enjoyed most of the games - sorry Caesar 4, you aren’t included - my favourite was Zeus: Master of Olympus, as it benefitted from that extra polish that came from being one of the later titles to launch. We all have comfort games we turn to when we fancy taking a break from shiny new titles and for me, that means the City Building ancient city sim series. ![]()
