Emerald Tablet
Pharaoh

Score for the original game edition, not the port’s performance.
An Egyptian city-builder on Caesar III's model: farm the unforgiving Nile, defend the borders, raise monuments that will stand for all time and manage trade and religion. Brings 1999's Pharaoh and its Cleopatra expansion to Apple devices through the open-source Akhenaten engine, with landscape iPadOS as the primary experience, touch navigation, Apple Pencil construction and native game-speed controls; the same source also builds for iPhone and Apple silicon Mac.
