Powermonger review

PC Review Issue 7 (1992): "Bullfrog's next one on from Populous didn't have quite the same impact as its predecessor, but it remains a classic wargame and graphically impressive to boot. There is an option to connect computers together via a modem or direct cable so two human players can compete head-to-head. The game also supports a network allowing four-player competition. The amount of detail in the game is incredible - birds rustling feathers, voices of blacksmiths in their workshops and cheering."

Retro gamer collector's corner:

In 1991 an expansion disk (for computers only) was released that changed the setting from the conquest of a medieval kingdom, to World War I. The game play was still essentially the same, but with more ranged weapons and war-machines.

    Loved this game although I could never really play it well. I loved the feel of it though but without help I never got very far into it. It was one of the first pc games I ever bought after switching from amiga to pc.
