Th Acropolis Pack, or just Zeus, is the best game ever! [Posted on 2002-03-05]
Acropolis is the best game ever. You could just by Zeus first and then get Poseidon, but I reccomend the the Acropolis Pack because it includes the two games and it is a lot cheaper then buying the two seprately... Anyways let me get down to the review which will start in the next paragraph.
The game is addicting and makes you want to keep playing for hours on end... The graphics are pretty good and the sound is okay, but the gameplay is excedingly good. It is pretty much a Sim City combined withe Ages of Empires. I recommend this pack to anyone who loves Greek mythology; it is loaded with it. I won't tell you anything about the levels because you will have to find ou about that youreself, but I will tell you will probably being hereing more f me in the future. Thank you, good night!!!

As good as it gets [Posted on 2002-05-12]
A good strategy game, everything you expect to have is there, though I would have like to coordinate the battles away from more closely, rather than send troops and wait for the result.
Worth the price.

Travel through time to play the greatest game of all time [Posted on 2002-08-16]
From the neverending epoch rises another game which enchants you to entertainment so deep that even doom coundnt have impressed me so much when it was first unleashed in the gaming market.Zeus is a game which tells you about rise and fall of ancient Greece and in such a manner that even the greatest of historians coundnt have told better (with some exceptions 'ahem').You play as a sort of mayor of a city.You have to build ur city towards a glorious metropolis.Keep ur gods contended ur people well fed ur enemies at bay and ur allies happy with u and you'll earn the approval and admiration of both gods and mortals alike.Mis manage Your city misunderstand your citizens and bribe incoming enemies and watch ur city burn and break by the hands of gods and mortals alike.Supply ur wealthy citizens with armor and horses and get ready to conquer distant territories and prove ur worth to ur rivals.War gaming was never so rewarding as Zues.
Imagine some drop sea ships unload a really biig army of minotaurs on your shores wat would u do.. bribe them or strike back and send them back limping to their territories ??at this moment if u wanna play offensive then u'll muster each and every unit u have for the battle cause. Either it would be long ranged slingers or heavy metal hoplites or legendiary heroes or mighty gods, its up to u how u wanna defeat ur enemies. Or u can play defensive and try to bribe the incoming armies, at that time they would leave but next time the bribery rate would be higher and this is a big disandvantage of bribing ur enemies.
The graphics,the involving storylne,and great game play adds to the games worth.Build great and beautiful sanctuaries for ur gods to earn thier approval and to yield its benifits, build heroes halls to attract heroes to help you in difficult tasks,and watch as gods bless ur city or blow it to smithereens.Its like a great combination of simcity with empire earth!!The game is a must buy for all who would like to know about the greatness of ancient Greece and to loose thier sleep playing the greatest city manegment+battle game title of all times. Dont wait a second Zeus is a must buy.

Still a great game [Posted on 2003-11-13]
This game is so much fun I still play it over and over, it's even better than the next in the city-building series Emperor. It funny and versatile and beautiful. Incredibly addictive, rememer to eat and sleep at some point during play.

great game [Posted on 2006-08-18]
i bought this game when it first came out and even now in 2006 i still think that this is one of the best city and war game that anyone has ever come out with. I mean you can do so many different things in this game and and for a 19 year old like me that likes ancient history this really lives up to the expectations
