First PC God Game

Populous is a computer game developed by Bullfrog and is regarded by a lot of gamers to be the very first PC god game. It was the first game in the Populous series, preceding Populous 2 and Populous: The Beginning. For its time, Populous was a fresh new idea, playing as god was never heard of. Younger gamers like me, have played Black and White as their very first PC god game. In this game the player adopts the role of a deity and assumes the responsibility to shepherd people by direction, manipulation, and divine intervention. The player has the ability to shape the landscape and grow their civilization with the overall aim of having it conquer an enemy force, which is led by an opposing deity. It's all fine and fun, however taking care of your civilization may prove to be challenging, which is a good thing, but newcomers may find stressful. The graphics and music are outstanding for DOS standards. Overall, for any gamer that wants to play God, go ahead and try out Populous.
