I would strongly recommend the Total War series - starting with Rome Total War which is still available and cheaply too. Sim City whilst attracting kudos for being the first city builder game hasn't been updated in a time and personally I think others have done better since. Pharaoh itself was based on the Caesar series and Sierra put out several versions of Caesar later than Pharoah.Ĭlash of Clans and Jurassic Park on mobile platforms both have building aspects - and both suffer from the plight of having to wait days (literally days) for improvements and buildings to be completed. These are the closest suggestions I can offer, neither of which can really compete with Pharaoh, sorry. It was such a great game (As were most Impression's Games).
I was/am a huge fan of Pharaoh myself, bought it several times over the years. Most others that come to mind are more RTS than City Management, which kind of ruins the experience, imho.
Impressions made MANY great titles, all of which were killed by Sierra.Īs to other suggestions, can be hard to say.Įmperor was interesting, but had a BAD habit of ignoring comodity resources, which would stagnate or downright kill entire neighbourhoods, despite having the needed supply (like Food) right next to the distributor.Ĭaesar series was OK, ancient Rome based, and very similar to Pharaoh, but somehow lacked the "feel" of Pharaoh.
The fired Impression's staff went on to found Tilted Mill, and made their own Ancient Egypt City Builder (Children of the Nile), which was more complicated, and less fun (for me) than the original. Because it was an Impression's game, Sierra bought Impression's Games, and fired all the staff that came with it.
