Nethergate: Resurrection

It's set in the British Isles during the Roman Conquest. You have the choice of playing a party of celtic tribesmen with magic, or roman soldiers with technology. The two sides have different storylines and also differing play styles because technology (high-end weapons and armor) interferes with magic. The Celts get healing magic, barbarian rage and various spells while the Romans have to rely upon skill.

Because the two factions are diametrically opposed (and at war with each other), you also get two different endings if you want to play through the game twice. Yay replay value.

That looks quite epic.

Children of the nile is surprisingly good, when I first saw it I thought it was a kids game. It is infact a more realistic 'Pharoah' type of game. Highly recommend it.

The interesting thing about that game is that it won't kill you for making mistakes, but it'll surely prevent your town from growing if you don't look after it. I don't think I've ever really lost it (as opposed to Pharaoh, where big cities have a tendency to collapse if you make mistakes), but if your city structure is messed up you're going to have to do some mayor restructuring and you'll have to wait a long time for new workers to be born...

Definitely recommend this one, one of my favorite city building games ever.

I've played Pharaoh/Cleopatra Zeus/Atlantis Three kingdoms and the Caesar series to death.

It's a shame they don't make games like THAT anymore.
