#11 Hard to Be a God - Populous: The Beginning - a podcast by Andy Johnson

With Populous: The Beginning, beloved British games developer Bullfrog produced one of their last great games - an innovative and literally groundbreaking hybrid of the god game and the real-time strategy. This retrospective looks at what makes the game so unique, why it was released to such a muted reception in 1998, and why it is ripe for rediscovery.
