Basically, Cleopatra picks up where Pharaoh left off and lets you take command of Egypt’s dynastic line though four new campaigns. The first campaign, Valley of the Kings puts you in charge of building huge new tombs, carved into the faces of the cliffs that surround your city. Once you’ve got ’em built, you’ll also have to work very hard to make sure that the local tomb robbers don’t crack into them and steal all of the supplies for the journey into the underworld that you have stocked them with. Once you’ve made it through these beginning missions (and as the easiest of the lot, they’re not all that easy), you’ll be ready to move on to Ancient Conquerors, several missions putting you against the worst of Egypt’s enemies (the fight with the Hittites took me forever to beat).As if fighting off all these invaders wasn’t bad enough, you’ll also have to keep your cities stocked with all the niceties of an advanced civilization.
Manage your city poorly and you shall watch it burn, be pillaged or collapse in economic ruin. Manage it well and ultimately the greatest Egyptian structures will be built in your honor. Your rule will span generations, until your dynasty, your royal bloodline produces a Pharaoh!
Pharaoh includes many features never before seen in a city building game, such as a farming model based on the flooding of the Nile, naval warfare, giant monuments that are assembled over time, unique dynastic progression, and variable difficulty levels. This a massively addictive, huge, but most importantly fun game that is a great choice for anyone looking for a solid city builder title, or an intellectual challenge.
