About This Game

Immerse yourself in Ancient Egypt from the age of the great pyramids to the final years of the New Kingdom. Govern all aspects of the exotic Egyptian, culture from religion to trading with distant cities. Cultivate vast farms in the Nile valley and discover the important role this river, with its unpredictable floods, played in the life of the Egyptians. Stone by stone, erect giant monuments - from the Sphinx, to the lighthouse and library of Alexandria.

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.

  • Pharaoh + Cleopatra bundle includes Pharaoh and Cleopatra: Queen of the Nile expansion.
  • A city-builder gem, made by the creators of the award-winning Caesar III.
  • Extensive help section not only does an excellent job at explaining the game mechanics, but also contains many interesting facts and trivia about life in Ancient Egypt.
  • Destroy enemies on land and sea, or simply build the perfect Egyptian city of your liking with the City Construction Kit.

Pharaoh + Cleopatra, developed by Impressions Games and published by Sierra in 1999, is a landmark in the city-building genre and remains one of the most atmospheric, mechanically rich, and historically grounded simulations ever made. As a spiritual successor to Caesar III, and part of the same engine lineage, Pharaoh takes the proven city-building framework and transplants it to Ancient Egypt, complete with Nile floods, monument construction, and a unique economy centered around the rhythms of Egyptian life. The included Cleopatra: Queen of the Nile expansion adds a substantial campaign and new challenges, making this bundle a must-play for both fans of classic strategy games and those interested in historical simulation. The game puts you in the sandals of a noble family rising through Egyptian society over the course of several millennia. Starting with small settlements along the Nile and progressing to mighty urban centers like Thebes and Memphis, each mission offers a distinct ch...

Unfortunately, this game crashes within a minute of being opened, repeatedly. I think it is just too old to run on most computers, which sucks.
