I bought this in a pack with Populous: The Promised Lands. I seem to remember the title screen looking less EGA than that. Same faces, just a larger palette. Populous was a really revolutionary strategy title. I'd call it revolutionary, but not really that "fun". okr, if you didn't have fun with it, I wouldn't say you're stupid. The DS version is worth a try and the interface is large enough that you don't need the stylus.

I loved this game myself. I got Black & White thinking it'd be like a new populous... man i couldn't of been more wrong.

Top boxart: US, bottom boxart: EU.

I admit it, here & now: I was too stupid to play this game, I still feel unworthy. Maybe it'll give me a 2nd chance on DS.
