'''''Populous''''' (ポピュラス) is a 1989 computer simulation game by [[Bullfrog]] originally released for the Commodore Amiga and Atari ST .It was ported to the [[Sega Mega Drive]] internationally and [[Sega Master System]] in Europe. The American Mega Drive version does not have any [[TMSS]] support at all.
+
{{stub}}'''''{{PAGENAME}}''''' (ポピュラス) is a [[Sega Mega Drive]] strategy simulation game developed by [[Bullfrog Productions]] and published by [[Electronic Arts]]. A port of the developer's titular 1989 [[Amiga]] computer game ''[[wikipedia:Populous (video game)|Populous]]'', it was first released in the United States later that year. Alongside ''[[Budokan: The Martial Spirit]]'' and ''[[Zany Golf]]'', it was among the first batch of Mega Drive games Electronic Arts developed, and was initially intended to be released as an unlicensed game; [[Sega]]'s last-minute negotiations prevented this, but US copies of the game were not updated to comply with Sega's licensed ROM requirements, rendering American copies of the game incompatible with [[TMSS]] and only compatible with early Genesis units. European and Japanese copies were recoded to comply and work on all systems. (Sega would also publish the game in Japan, as this game predated the establishment of [[Electronic Arts Victor]].)
 +
 
 +
The game was ported to the [[Sega Master System]] courtesy of developer [[Code To Go]] and publisher [[TecMagik]], and first released in Europe in October 1991.

In ''Populous'', players play as a deity who controls land to affect peoples's lives in the hopes of crushing followers of another deity. The game is played from an isometric perspective, although unlike later attempts at simulations (such as ''[[Sim City 2000]]''), there is no scrolling. The Mega Drive ''Populous'' is said to have been the first game [[Electronic Arts]] released for the system (or indeed any Sega console).

Populous (ポピュラス) is a Sega Mega Drive strategy simulation game developed by Bullfrog Productions and published by Electronic Arts. A port of the developer's titular 1989 Amiga computer game Populous, it was first released in the United States later that year. Alongside Budokan: The Martial Spirit and Zany Golf, it was among the first batch of Mega Drive games Electronic Arts developed, and was initially intended to be released as an unlicensed game; Sega's last-minute negotiations prevented this, but US copies of the game were not updated to comply with Sega's licensed ROM requirements, rendering American copies of the game incompatible with TMSS and only compatible with early Genesis units. European and Japanese copies were recoded to comply and work on all systems. (Sega would also publish the game in Japan, as this game predated the establishment of Electronic Arts Victor.)

The game was ported to the Sega Master System courtesy of developer Code To Go and publisher TecMagik, and first released in Europe in October 1991.

Gameplay

In Populous, players play as a deity who controls land to affect peoples's lives in the hopes of crushing followers of another deity. The game is played from an isometric perspective, although unlike later attempts at simulations (such as Sim City 2000), there is no scrolling.

History

Legacy

Populous' sequel, Two Tribes: Populous II (a renamed version of Populous II: Trials of the Olympian Gods) was also released for the Mega Drive, as well as the more combat-orientated Power Monger.
