About
Immerse yourself in the history of Ancient Egypt with 50 missions in Pharaoh™: A New Era, a remake of Pharaoh (and the expansion Cleopatra: Queen of the Nile), one of the best city builders from the golden age of Sierra Entertainment. Stone by stone, build your city and manage all aspects of its development to ensure it prospers and makes you a powerful and revered pharaoh.

Develop your city by cultivating the fertile lands along the banks of the Nile valley. Erect the iconic monuments of Ancient Egypt, including the pyramids, the Sphinx and the Lighthouse of Alexandria. Build temples and mausoleums to help manage all aspects of your city's health and culture as well as the predominant polytheistic religion of the time.
Ensure your city is prosperous enough to deal with economic or political crises, or even plundering by enemies. A pharaoh takes care of its people and does whatever it can to earn the favour of the gods.

Pharaoh™: A New Era celebrates 20 years since the release of the famous franchise with a complete remake, including more than 50 playable missions and over 100 hours of gameplay.
The "Campaign" mode teaches you the game basics while allowing you to experience a unique story in the heart of Ancient Egypt. Explore all aspects of life in a thriving city, build and manage all its fundamental elements to ensure it flourishes: the economy, internal and external trade, culture, health, agriculture, education, etc.

The journey back in time is really brought to life with this new version, which upgrades the gameplay mechanics to modern standards and completely redesigns the captivating soundtrack and gorgeous isometric 2D graphics.
Many indicators have also been added or improved: keep better track of the frequency or quality of the Nile's floods with the Nilometer, or don't lose sight of your population's mood with some unique new tools!

Very addictive and complex gameplay. Will make you stay up all night!
For me and many of my friends who have also downloaded this wonderful game, PHARAOH – A New Era is one of the best experiences. It especially brings back memories of my childhood. I’ve wanted to buy this game for a long time. I’d like to thank the development team and the staff who did everything they could and devoted a lot of time to making this happen. I can’t say or write anything negative about it. However, there is one thing I would keep in mind, and if I were in the team’s shoes, I would consider it—even if only as a trial or test version—to see if players like it. And that is none other than an online multiplayer mode with two servers. There would be one server where warfare is allowed, and another server that is a “peace server” where there is no warfare. Just trade, offers, construction, and diplomacy. But maybe this online option or version doesn’t belong here; I just wrote it as a suggestion. Of course, moderators are also needed, mainly because anyone whose account the game shows hasn’t logged in or played for 72 hours and isn’t continuing to play will be deleted from the system.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 22 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,513 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

CHINESE PLEASE??? YOU GIVE ME CHINESE, I GIVE YOU RECOMMAND, DEAL???????
Culte. Un très bon city-builder, facile pour commencer le genre. On peut juste regretter qu'il n'y ait pas eu d'amélioration des batailles entre l'ancienne version et la nouvelle.
Um jogo muito simples, mas que tem uma boas pegadinhas. Ensina Historia do Egito antigo, muito divertido.
Schönes Spiel, >100h Spielzeit! Viele Missionen, welche die Geschichte Ägyptens durchlaufen.
Engraçado para jogar quando queremos descontrair um pouco... :-)
It's ok the new art and music is nice. tho they should've just stuck to the original gameplay especially the battles.
Faithful to the original, my favourite city builder of all time - the right degree of complexity and truly epic projects. The upgrades (global workforce, 5x speed) make the game massively, massively better! Only feature requests - name generator + auto-festival or festival reminders so I don't get slammed in end game grind
I loved playing this game as a kid. Going through all the missions now. Some things in the game doesnt seem to work. But I'm not sure if it'd because of how far I've progressed, or if it's actually bugged. But still love the game. Such great graphics.
