How can you not like a game where your citizens are turned into statues.
But it wasn't so much a City Building game--- the Cities kind of built themselves. Even more so in Middle Kingdom
But as a strategy game, it was from a lot of fun (Perseus) to downright tough (Athens vs Sparta)
And you went from Mythology driven victories to just two cities slugging it out.
Poseidon I was not too found of. Not different enough and the maps were not always fun.
But Zeus--- First rate.
I am looking forward to Pharaoh and if good, let's hope they move onto Zeus. And this time, give the Kraken a spine.
