"Short episodes.."
I agree that the game's episode are quite short. They already provided cheats so why the easy game?

"not very challenging"
I've played Caesar, pharaoh, cleopatra, zeus & poseidon. I expected more. I played Caesar & pharaoh for months at a time. Poseidon is just not as challenging as the former games. I do like the "episode" concept better than having to complete an entire level (like caesar or pharaoh), but the episodes are too easy. The cartooney look and feel is also somewhat patronizing.

"It's awesome-and don't pay attention to "a gamer""
"A gamer" claimed that Posiedon is not that great. Well, he or she is dead wrong. It is way better than Cleopatra(the expansion of Pharoah). With 2 new gods, 4 new monsters, and another 2 heroes added to the list, this is so cool. Also, there are new industries and many new beutification structures, including the pyramid. And there are dozens of new adventures, and new types of cities. This altogether is one heck of a good game. This is a must buy for any gamer. BTW, check out my review of Shine...the hits in the music section.(STH is by Newsboys)

"What Zeus was for Greece, Poseidon is for Atlantis"
Poseidon is the expansion for the game Zeus, city-building in ancient Greece. New gods, monsters and heros, plus an "Atlantean" slant on the game, keep it fresh and interesting. Also, there are new adventures for Greek cities. The basic premise hasn't changed: one builds the city/colony to achieve the victory conditions in the episode. The Episodes tie together and link to each other in the adventure. The Atlantean twists are replacing the "Cultural" enchancements of the Greek city-states with "Science"-as Atlanteans prized knowledge and learning according to myth. Additional aesthethic improvements are available (as well as to the Greek adventures). Some minor bugs in the game system have been fixed; also now one may halt construction of any major building. Additionally the details about construction are much more useful than before. Speaking of bugs, I can't really think of any in Poseidon-a tribute to the team that built the program. If you enjoyed Zeus, you will really like the additional features in the enchancement.

"Great Expansion"
This game really expands the world intorduced to us in Zeus. I just finished bulding the hyprdome and now my city is huge. This game is a great addittion to anyone's collection and it helps you learn more about the ancietn world of Greece and Atlantis
