I first played the demo of the game when my sister got The Sims (shudders) and i simply loved it, and by the end of it i take on the computer of any size with my shaman 10 warriors and a preacher

And i spoke about it at work and apparently one of my collegues was walking down the high street and saw it in the shop window for £5 so bought it for me and called it a late xmas pressie rushed home (never played the full game) redid the tutorial and started playing, and the first couple of rounds were hard, but i got better at them, and can now kick its can but its bumped it up a notch and now i have to fight 2 computer players, its crazy, just wanted to no if anyone else has this game? still plays it? and would fancy a multiplayer sometime?


/runs off to cast locusts at the computer

I've got Populous 3 and the expansion.

Ahh na im talking THE Populous, i still think the graphics are awsome, even though it must be about 7 - 9 years old
the only spells you ever got on the demo were the small fireballs used for troops, locusts and lightning.

I just converted about 20 of computer 1's men by literally sneaking a preacher around the back of their base whilst leaving everyone at my base training to be a warrior or building huts lol

now computer 1's base is being raided, by not warriors but standard men its funny to watch, they die quickly but go by the factors of strength in numbers lol

Are you absolutely positive you aren't talking about Populous 3: The Beginning?

Well on the cd case it just says Populous so i thought it was the original but when you run it it does say Populous the Beginning is that the third one then?
