This is a wonderfully absorbing game which brings historic citybuilding to a new level.You are Pharaoh and need to build beautiful cities to reach certain targets. That's roughly where the similarity to previous citybuilders ends. Children of the Nile is a society builder. All your people have minds of their own: their own needs, desires and aspirations and, of course, their own gripes and whinges. Meanwhile you, as Pharaoh, need continually to increase your prestige so it's better than any previous Pharaoh; not to mention that additional prestige enables you to employ more educated workers such as priests, scribes, overseers and commanders who provide things to make your citizens'lives better and to further increase your prestige.The game is 3D, built from the Empire Earth engine, but almost unrecognisable as such. You can look down on your thriving (hopefully) city from afar, or zoom down to one of your citizens and follow him or her while he/she goes about his/her daily life.The reporting mechanisms are fairly minimal but perfectly adequate for what you need to know. The thing to remember is that no-one is going to be happy all the time. Your task is to make sure that most people are happy most of the time. Also that building a hospital today isn't going to make your farmer who broke his leg last week and couldn't have treatment any happier ... though is unhappiness will fade over time, just as it would in real life.It's good to have a game again where I can be so absorbed that I suddenly realise it's morning and I have no idea what happened to night.

Children of the Nile (CotN) is a graphics masterpiece continuing in the theme of Pharaoh, but unfortunately the game itself lacks some of the features of its predecessor. Instead, CotN glows in the scenery it has created, and this in itself is so good that it holds the gamer for some time. It is just when you spend a few days playing, you realise that the game's structure is weaker than Pharaoh or Caesar which are now classic games available from most budget sections of a games store (or Amazon of course). I would say that you must buy this game and play it just for the amazing views you can have of the city you just created. Zoom in, zoom out, fly high or walk along the streets of your city with a citizens-eye view at the click of a mouse.Fantastic. But dont expect to be stretched too much in tactics or strategies.
