About the game

Move mountains, part the seas, and lead mortal armies to victory in Populous. Take on the powers of a mighty deity, and battle for supremacy against an enemy god, using thoughtful strategy to shape the isometric world and the fate of its people. From the minds that brought you Black & White and Fable comes the game that defines “divine intervention."
