GamesWeasel: Populous DS Review

GamesWeasel writes: "If you loved Populous, then there is absolutely no reason why you shouldn't like this - just make sure you try it out and make sure you still actually like it and not just like the memory of it, because it is quite a difficult game to like. It's hard - surprisingly so - and not the most interactive of experiences. In fact, the original game engine has been beaten so many times over the years by the likes of Civilization that all that Populous DS has going for it is nostalgic appeal and bare bones, rock-hard simplicity. If you liked it when games were tough, but didn't require five million buttons, then Populous has enough game modes, options, variety and general junk in its trunk to provide you with a substantial, enduring, challenging experience".
