Rating: Summary: A Marvel! Review: I have been hooked to many computure games, but none like the City Building series. Pharaoh was a game of excellence, the graphics are amazing! I plan on majoring in architecual design and this game along with others like it constantly fill my brain with ideas. The Cleopatra expansion is one of the most complete expansions I have played yet. If you are going to get a game I would reccomend either Zues and the expansion pack Posiedon or Pharaoh and its expansion Cleopatra. I would not however waste your money on any of the Ceaser series. I complement the producers and creators for their magnificent job at gaming.
Rating: Summary: They're already working on a new game! Review: I just read that there will be a completely new game in this series, called "Zeus" or something like that, it will be set in Greece (of course); good thing we have the Cleopatra expansion to keep us busy until then :)
Rating: Summary: you have to be a devoted Pharaoh fan to give $... for this Review: i liked cleopatra but i was kinda disappointed with it. First the only thing that is really different then Pharaoh is that there are a couple more buildings. I didnt really like the new missions because they are a lot harder than in Pharaoh and some of them have a time limit! All in all i guess it was a worthy of the title of Official Pharaoh Expansion Pack. I am also looking forward to the new one, "Zeus....", whenever it comes out.
Rating: Summary: Worth the price Review: I love Pharoah, and cleopatra is an excellent expansion for Pharaoh worth the money.
Rating: Summary: Shameless Cleopatra plug Review: I play many city building games but I always come back to this one.
Rating: Summary: Can they possibly do it again Review: I was hooked on Pharaoh for months. It was a good mix of city building and city defence. If the expansion pack is half as good as the original I want it! As soon as I get the money it will be mine! so if you havent got Pharaoh yet and you have a lot of time and patience get Pharaoh AND Cleopatra. They are both good investments I promise you.
Rating: Summary: Not Too Shabby .... Review: I would have given this a more enthusiastic rating, because I do play the game and enjoy it, but there are a few issues I feel really hurt the game. Some of the communities are on a timer, which doesn't allow for leisurely game playing and the construction can take forever. By and large though, I would recommend this but advise some patience.
Rating: Summary: About Cleopatra Review: Of all the games I've played, Cleopatra is by far the best. I like how it combines military strategy, city building, and actual historic events into one game. I've been glued to it for weeks now and I see no signs of letting up. I'm always on a quest to build the perfect city.
Rating: Summary: The perfect expansion to a perfect city builder Review: The main purpose of an expansion is defined as: "Add new and interesting features to the original version, which will in turn bring people back to the game."Well, after I stopped playing Pharaoh for a while, just due to playing it some much I needed to regain my life back; I bought Cleopatra with the thought of playing Pharaoh again. It worked! Cleo adds some really neat buildings (I love the Zoo) plus a lot of hard missions. The new monuments are worth the price of admission, with a built tome, you can actually see inside! Thus the need of the new lamp makers :) A great expansion for the true Pharaoh fan.
