Monuments
I never actually got into this game; still play Pharaoh as it seems to move better. Does this game have the same scale of monuments? Can you bild the Great Pyramid, Sphinx, Tut's tomb, etc.? Should probably be mentioned one way or the other if so. -Husnock 13:08, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

to some degree.you can build pyramids of varying sizes(very small,to small to gigantic),a sphinx,and mastabas,obelisks,etc but nothing really denominational

Large expansion to article
I got the GOG version and started playing, completing the first scenario. I added gameplay information to the article. It could probably do with some paring down to the essentials, but the unique nature of the game's economy—very different from most city-building games and even very different from games like Settlers—makes it sort of hard to reduce it to a simple explanation a la Caesar and/or Pharaoh: citizens need goods and services to develop into wealthier citizens who require more goods and services to become wealthier, etc. 70.172.214.70 (talk) 05:00, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
