Populous is the first noteworthy production of Peter Molyneux and his company Bullfrog Productions. The success of this title strengthened the position of both its main designer and the studio itself, as well as influenced the development of the sub-genre of strategy games, allowing to become a virtual god and decide on the fate of people who profess him.

In Populous we play the role of a mighty deity and try to give our devotees a place to develop. We do this by transforming the terrain - levelling mountains with the ground and backfilling valleys. God's intervention is not limited only to making life more pleasant to the friendly inhabitants of the world, who are willing to build themselves on flat areas like a table. The game also lets you make the life of your competitors unpleasant - causing floods and flooding too low houses or creating a lava spitting volcano in the middle of the opponents' village helps to tip the scales of victory on your side.
