Populous 2: Trials of the Olympian Gods

Populous 2: Trials of the Olympian Gods expands the original god simulation concept by adding mythology, new powers, and even greater control over the world. Players take on the role of a deity competing against other gods, using miracles and strategic decisions to influence civilizations. The game offers a huge variety of powers, allowing players to alter landscapes, help followers, or create disasters when necessary. Populous 2 combines strategy with creativity, giving players the unusual experience of managing an entire civilization while also having the ability to change reality itself. It is a game where weather, geography, and divine intervention become strategic tools. Naturally, being a god sounds impressive, but managing thousands of followers who constantly need help can become surprisingly exhausting.

Populous 2: Trials of the Olympian Gods review

Abandonware DOS: "If I have to be completely honest, I didn't enjoy much the first Populous. The concept was great, but the inevitable armageddon bell ended every game too soon. Populous 2, on the other hand, allowed me to take everything easier, plan ahead (sometimes) and it felt more like a simulation. I don't know if Populous 2 was the perfect god-game, but certainly was a great game to me."

Retro gamer collector's corner:

A data disk was also released for Populous II, titled Populous II: The Challenge Games. This was set in Japanese mythology instead of Greek, and had each level as its individual challenge, slightly in the style of a puzzle game.
