In general, I'm avoiding Strategy games not because I don't like them but because I'm not good at them. To be honest I suck! I prefer the safe tranquillity of adventures and the epic tales of RPG's.
At about 2000 a friend of mine gave me this game to try and (to my surpise) I stucked playing it until I finished it and with the three tribes (yes I actually did).
What drove me the interest was that you couldn't controls your individuals but instead you could gave orders like a god and all this in real time.
You can give order for building, trading (very very important) e.t.c. and your people will follow your commands having their daily circle of life.
There are three tribe, each having their unique attitude, others being more hostile and others more peaceful. The sure thing is that you will love them.
The graphics are cute and the overall atmosphere has lot of homour.
Recommended to everyone!
