Others say...
"It's all in good fun...." I bought this game based upon what gamers said in reviews here. I was interested in knowing what others were playing in the genre of the new Ceasar IV. I was looking for a game that was a city builder/sim type, but one that didn't bog down in an average computer without a powerful graphics card. And I wanted a fun game that allowed me to do the city building without having to restart building over and over because the scenario was just too hard to beat. This is an older game, but be assured it does not lack for quality game play. There are hours and hours of fun to be had playing- the adventures are packed with challenge for any level of player (you can choose the difficulty level yourself)and they are engaging and interesting. What I especially enjoy is that the game plays well without bogging down at all on my computer. I have played all of the roller coaster games, the sim games and now this is my new favorite city builder game. You get a lot for your money with this one, and if you haven't tried it...do.
"A great game you can enjoy for a long time" I bought this game looking for something that would be fun in my spare time and became addicted!
The game has a great tutorial to teach you how to build and run your city. It is fairly easy to learn the basics of building a city but there are enough variations to keep the game intersting and to keep you learning. There are also campaigns which are very well put together, and my favorite, the ability to create your own campaigns, right down to the landscape if you choose.
I like how much you are able to control about your city and the relationships you can form with the different gods. By choosing which God you align yourself with you can create a lot of varience in the game.
This game kept my attention for a long time and I know I'll continue to enjoy it. I think it is a superbly done strategy and building game!
"MYTHOLOGY ENTHUSIAST LOVES THIS GAME!!!!" I have loved Greek Mythology since I was 8 years old. Loved it so much that I'm kinda a scholar of it, to a degree. So, basically anything that has anything to do with Greek Mythology I simply love.
This game is no exception. I can talk about everything I love about this game but one thing absolutely fascinated me. Say, for instance, in the first adventure, you build your city up enough where it can support a sanctuary for both Ares and Athena, the God and Goddess of war respectively. You have no military and invaders start attacking your city. If you don't get scared and bribe them off and decide to defend your city, guess what happens...the invaders have to fight the combined strength and power of both Ares and Athena.
Imagine an entire army being creamed by Ares and Athena! This is just one of the things that you can see within this game if you have gods on your side. Even better, have Zeus himself on your side and he takes out the armies by himself, even if you have no military.
To me, this is one of the best city building games of all time, right up there with Pharaoh and Civilization.
"The game never ends!!" I purchased this game with the Poseidon expansion (Acropolis)for about $4 at a local game store thinking it would just be a way to waste spare time. I became addicted to it in almost no time at all with gods battling each other, keeping people happy and healthy while trying to build onto your city. I was shook up when I tried to install it on my new system and it would not install to save my life because it was too scratched. Since then, I've tried to re-purchase Acropolis willing to spend 5 times the ammount of money on it, but it is no longer available. I will find a way to have this full version game again so that spare time can be spent wisely making Hera tame Zeus and watching my little dudes run from the monsters which attack at any given time.
"A challenge for beginners" I first saw the ad for Zeus in an Archaeology Magazine and was curious. So I bought it and found it was real fun but also a challenge. It took me weeks to pass some levels. I took my copy to Venezuela and my sister loved it so I gave it to her and bought another one. Then I bought Great Empires 2 and that had Zeus so I gave my second copy to my niece. So I'm on my 3rd copy of Zeus. It's a game you can't get enough of.

What our customer's say!
"So addictive!", I'm really an action game guy at heart with a little RPG/MMORG and adventure game mixed in. But ever since I played Caesar 3, I've been hooked on this series of games (Caesar 3, Pharoahs, and now Zeus). It's a great game to play on a long airplane ride; it's a great "thinking man's game (or woman)".
Zeus is the most refined of the series and best overall although I didn't like the cartoon-y aspect of the artwork in this game. I really loved the Rome setting and the more matter-of-fact style of artwork in Caesar 3, but that's probably more a personal preference than anything.
I think the only tiny gripe I've had with this game and it's predecessors is that the levels still get kinda repetitive after awhile. But overall, it's one of my favorite games, and really offers some intellectual stimulation and puzzle solving.
"Good game, but BEWARE", This is a fun game, especially if you like city building games. The interface is easy to understand, and the scenarios range from easy to challenging. You can even play in a "sandbox" or create a scenario. However, the new version I received was not the one advertised on this page. It was a UK version of the game that won't work with expansions made for US versions (such as Posidon). My advice is to check this out w/ the seller before ordering to make sure you truely get what you order.
"Sweet", I had a friend who had this game a few years back , I found it on Amazon cheap and I had to get it. I got the game in 2 days! I still like playing it.
"The best of the ancient city-building games, high fun and excellent replayability", From Caesar to Caesar II to Caesar III to Pharaoh and now to Zeus: Master of Olympus, so many changes have taken place, and yet the concept is always the same.
From the Romans to the Egyptians, we now hit the Greeks, with a strong mythological twist, and it's the absolute best game in the franchise!
It bears more resemblence to Pharaoh than it does to Caesar III, but it's significantly different in that buildings now take up more space (four spaces for a single house rather than one space for one house) but this only serves to make cities much more manageable without making them drastically smaller.
The maps are more vivid and easier to comprehend. The AI is strong and gathering resources is more fun than ever. Rather than building a farm for everything from food to fabric, and a place near precious resources for people to go out and get, you can do things like make cheese by building a goat herder and literally placing individual goats (a limit of 10 per hearding shack), or build a sheep herder and place individual sheep so that they can graze on the grass (in special areas only) and grow thick furs for wool and such. You can also build Olive Presses or Grape Presses and place row after row of olive trees or grape vines which grow over time to be picked.
Temples now are also far bigger (so big that they aren't placed automatically----you need to gather up marble and wood and precious objects before construction can begin, and specially trained artisans to craft the building) and now serve a purpose other than the God's punishment. Now they positively reinforce you. If you build their temple and get people to work there, they will serve you once in a while depending on their specialty (ie, Ares will give you six of his elite Sparti warriors to fight with your soldiers, and he will fight with you, Zeus provides an oracle and helps against invaders and monsters, Athena makes olive presses work faster and trees grow faster, Dionysus makes wine presses work faster, etc)
Heroes are also an available option, only springing up when they're needed for tasks (such as killing a Minotaur, or retrieving an object for a God) and you build a Hero's Hall. The Hall requires a certain amount of supplies in your warehouses to call upon a hero (like 1000 Drachmae, 32 tons of food, 64 bushels of grapes, etc). The hero you send on his task, and he/she will also fight alongside your soldiers.
The campaign game is exciting and lets you keep your primary city and build upon it rather than having to build a new city with each mission, and you have tasks to do rather than just "Get to this population and produce this much food". While you keep your primary city, you are also able to build new ones in the form of colonies.
Where the game really shines is its new political system. As Greece was never a unified nation, individual city-states constantly fought each other, and this is represented in the game in a great way. Hoplites don't need special training at a barracks where they stand around doing nothing and reducing surrounding areas' appeal, they are in fact noblemen from high-class housing who buy suits of armor and form up in companies when needed for war.
From the diplomacy page you can attempt to make alliances, attack and invade enemy cities, which become your client-kingdoms (forced allies) and from them you can ask for supplies of a certain commodity you do not have or simply want, or even request their military aid if you are under attack and have no army, or even request a military strike on an enemy so you aren't alone when invading. Attacking allies is not a good idea, and sometimes cities will randomly decide to go neutral with you, paving the way for expanded trade and allliance.
All in all, this is absolutely the best ancient city-building game out there in the same stem as the likes of Pharaoh, Caesar III, etc. I haven't yet played Emperor: Rise of the Middle Kingdom, but from the first mission, I can see it uses the same engine as this one with little changes save cosmetic changes.
Great game. Must buy
"After 6 years and it's STILL my favorite!", I've bought other "simulation" games and they all stink when comparing to Zeus. I also used the "Poseidon" expansion pack and it just makes it better. I truly hope that the makers of this game will do a 'Zeus 2' or something. I'd really love to see what they come up with.
You might need this...
Read this reviews before You buy...
"good, But doesnt Master Pharaoh.", Granted i like this game a lot. But some interface controls and other aspects of city building dont master Pharaoh. Like when you wish to trade with a city in zeus you must build a seperate trading post for every city on the world map, which reaches a large number by the end of the game.In pHaroah all you must do is build one dock or just leave you tradable product in the storage yard Also food distrubution doest beat out pharaoh. In Zeus you must create a different store for every product, and it is hard to suply every neighberhood with all it needs. In Pharaoh There is one Food distribution center that sells everything. Another Falt of Zeus Is the difficulty. By the first hour of playing i had a flourishing city. This is fun, but it gets old after a while.Monument Building is easier in zeus, but there arnt as many monumentz s to build, so once you have built all the temples to the olympian gods, you get bored.The last reason Pharaoh masters Zeus is that there is not as much to do as ther is to in pharoah. The adventures can be easily mastered, and after that you have little to do, It lacks a campaign as good as pharoahs. I suggest you purchase pharaoh over zeus, even though both are good games. Pharoah is the greatest i think, city building game in the market as of now.
"Zeus Master of Olympus: The Greatest Computer Game Ever!", This Zeus game is awesome! I bought it at Staples for ten bucks and I am very pleased with this game. Your role in Zeus is a Greek city leader. You can trade and fight with other cities, start colonies and receive tribute, build sancturaries to The Gods, call upon heros, like Hercules, to defeat monsters, like the Hydra or Cyclops. You can even make up your own name or choose real Greek names from a Male or Female Roster. ZEUS MASTER OF OLYMPUS IS THE GREATEST COMPUTER GAME EVER!!!
"Terriffic", If you are in to Greek mytholagy and you like computer games this is the game for you.You can worship gods upgrade housing and create a strong military.
"Zeus reveiw", I LOVE this game. I must say, as a young ...gamer, its easy to understand,the concept of running an anciant civizilation is awsome, and the twist with the gods not only make it interesting but educational. Like I dident ever know that Demeter was the goddess of fertaility and fufillment. How cool is that? They will so love the game and you will get hours of 'Hey mom, did you know that ____ was the god/goddess of ___________?' or 'Dad, check out this city, see? My cities team even won the yearly Olympian games! Isent that awsome?!' In conclusion get the game, it will bring he/she hours of enjoyment, and you a life time of 'Hey mom' and 'Dad, check it out!' and these sentances wont end with "'Can I have it?! PLLEEEEEEASE??'". :) Happy gaming!!
"AWSOME", This is a very fun city sim. Ancient greece in all its glory. Easy interface and gaurnteed to lose some major real time with this one...I stayed up all night to finish the troy senrio. Very fun.
