Today is February 15th, 2023, the day many city-building fans have been waiting for. Pharaoh: A New Era, the remake of the 1999 classic, is finally here. The game is exclusive to PC and was developed by Triskell Interactive and published by Dotemu.
Improved User Interface and Faster Game Speed
The developers have completely overhauled the game and added many improvements. An improved user interface and faster game speed are just some of them. But Pharaoh: A New Era stays true to its predecessor and focuses on micromanagement and logistics.
