Zeus: Master of Olympus - Windows XP/98/95 game

Move over, Caesar — Zeus: Master of Olympus is here to show you that ancient city-building is better with gods throwing tantrums. In this mythological city sim, you don’t just deal with taxes and unemployment; you’ve also got to keep Hades from stomping through your suburbs. Divine intervention is both blessing and curse, and the game’s charm lies in its perfect blend of urban planning and ancient drama. Gorgeous 2D graphics, an epic soundtrack, and addictive gameplay make this one of the genre’s highlights. Pro tip: Always keep extra cheese for the Oracle.

Zeus: Master of Olympus review

GameSpy (2001): "Zeus easily fits into that category of games we find fun to play even though we can't explain just why. Go get it and make with the building! With its dependence on Greek mythology as opposed to historical accuracy, and the simpler management and control options, Zeus: Master of Olympus may be the most relaxing city building game to date."

Retro gamer collector's corner:

An expansion pack was released, named Poseidon: Master of Atlantis. An adventure editor was also included, although it had already been freely available on Impressions website.
