Review
This review applies to version 1.0
The latest version of this software will soon be reviewed by our
informers.
Populous: The Beginning is slightly different from the other two Populous games in that instead of playing as a deity from the beginning - capable of divine intervention, you instead control play through your tribe's Shaman, whose destiny it is to achieve divinity.
The female shaman leads the Blue tribe through a solar system of 25 planets, each time mustering her tribe against the opposing forces of the Red, Green, or Yellow tribes - each with its own shaman, and later levels having all three on one world.
Whilst the objective is always to eliminate all of the members of the other tribes, there are often only specific ways this can be achieved - through use spells gained from worshiping at the world's "artefacts" ("Stone Heads" for single use spells, "obelisks" for multiple use spells, "Totem Poles" for drastic spell effects, and "vaults of knowledge" for permanently learning the spell); or from building up a land-base, and breeding and training an appropriately sized army to bring upon the opposing tribes. You play the game from an overhead isometric perspective which enables you to quickly move about the globe of the planet you are on, viewing a 3D map which depicts the landscape, structures being built, and people maneuvering about - all done in realtime. |
