    If you enjoyed Zeus, you'll be quite happy with Poseidon.

    Even if it isn't all that different from "Zeus," it provides the same addictive gameplay that made "Zeus" such a great game.

    With a ton of new adventures and the same level of humor and flair (not to mention the twenty drachmae asking price) Poseidon is a great value.
  5. GameSpot

    As enjoyable as Zeus and suggests that Impressions' city-building series will just keep getting better.

    When I do click play, I find it very hard to stop.

    Not only does it add dozens of hours to the gameplay of its predecessor, it features some of the most enjoyable and fanciful mission design ever seen in the venerable City Building Series.
  8. Computer Games Magazine

    Though none of Poseidon's new features changes Zeus' core gameplay in any meaningful way, there is an awful lot of new content here.

    Adds enough eye-candy to the mega-hit Zeus to recapture your attention and perhaps rekindle your love for everything old and Greek.
