A worthy game thats sadly over looked by many.
The graphics are dated by todays standard of course, but they wont hurt your eyes either. Most things are very well detailed, and you can tell what youre doing.
The sound is pretty good, the game gives you all the alerts, and stuff you need. It also has some good "classical" music to enjoy. The narrator does a good job of making sure you hear what he says.
The gameplay is not as slow as a snail, but its just slow enough so you can enjoy this game. This game is more about developing you city/cities than going of and conquering your foes. But if you wish you can build a pretty impressive army, and navy.
All in all this game is worth playing. If you need a slow down, or just want to waste some time, this game here is here to do it. So, next time you look through the bargin bin, be sure to grab this gem if you find it.
