    In this game, first developed for the Amiga, Atari ST and PC, the player adopts the role of a deity and assumes the responsibility to shepherd people by direction, manipulation, and divine intervention. The player has the ability to shape the landscape and grow their civilization with the overall aim of having it conquer an enemy force, which is led by an opposing deity.
    As the game progresses, the player rules over a variety of different civilizations, including Prehistoric, Ancient, and Medieval.

    DOH! Would you believe I searched the URL, Populous AND Populous DS? I'm such a rubbish searcher. I'll send a merge request. Thanks Barnabysue.
