While there is not much new in this one it retains it new game feeling by mixing up the features so it's never repetitive.

The game requires strategy in choosing what to build, upgrade and demolish. And all the favourite features are here. Alters, temples, chariots etc, and the staples, olive groves, banks, forges, and quarries (that give parcels?).

The game requires strategy in choosing what to build, upgrade and demolish. And all the favourite features are here. Alters, temples, chariots etc, and the staples, olive groves, banks, forges, and quarries (that give parcels?).

There are collectable 'treasures' (and don't freak out like I did at first...they are not in order of listing). There is also a 'building tab' where you can use your level points to speed up or make things cheaper. But bonuses also appear on the levels like 'extra worker' or 'remove obstacle' or 'speed production' too

It's a classic great quality TM. It still does feel new as they have mixed it up enough that you can still get stumped lol. As Pennmom says..'Who doesn't like Hermes?" ( I too am upset that reviewers are suffering from vote manipulation)

So with three levels including relaxed there is something here for all TM lovers. Enjoy! Show less

fromDon't you think it's a bit cruel to make a new reviewer believe she's getting hundreds of yes votes just because you are mad at me?

Here's the thing. This site is allowing 1 person to vote multiple times, (both Yes & No votes) Until that behavior is stopped, I'll just give every game a generic sentence or two review. Because I think you'll love this Collector's Edition version, you should complain..

While it's a time management game, like we're used to from the other Hermes games, I still find them sucky over and over again and they're great fun.
You sometimes have to be careful about which building you choose to progress, but since you can demolish them and build something new, it's not that bad. (I'm a very good demolitionist...)

There are additional items to collect, which are easy to find in the individual levels.
The game is suitable for all player levels, a beginner will have as much fun as an expert.
I had a great time again and am looking forward to the next part. Show less

I am new to time management games and have tried several over these past few months. Hermes is a fun little game that is not difficult to play. The tutorial and gameplay are easy to follow and it's easy to get addicted to :)

The greatest positive feature is that it's a fun game. i couldn't stop playing because I wanted to keep going, let the story unfold and do my best at each level. As a collector's edition, there are achievements to be earned and the player can choose from a few music loops.

The things that kept me from giving Hermes 5 stars are the graphics and the music. The graphics are very cartoonish and have no depth. It's a bit off-putting in its appearance. The music isn't great because it's a few bars that play over and over, even with choices. I prefer to keep the game muted, but that's personal preference.

I really liked this game overall. I recommend it to players of all skill levels. It's a nice little game that's hard to put down once you get started. Show less

I recommend this game!

They switched the expert and novice mode!

Favorite Genre(s):Time Management

I like this game, but realised after finishing all levels in novice mode and replaying them in expert mode, that novice and expert mode are switched.
Expert is much easier then the novice mode.
If you have trouble getting 3 stars while playing novice, try expert instead.

I have played other Hermes games and this one is just as good. My one question, is there any where that tells what levels the "collection" items are on? I am missing two and since they don't seem to pop up in any order, I am having difficulty finding the missing items.

I recommend this game!

I suppose this is a good game... I just can't really get into it. It doesn't help that nearly every drawing of Hermes makes him look like he's shocked by some odd news.

The building/gathering/tearing down gets a touch repetitive after a while, the music is semi-annoying, and the story doesn't really seem to go anywhere.

I'm going to finish the game as it is kind of fun, but it's more a time-killer than anything else. Do try it and decide for yourself, though. Show less

in comparison with other games of 'Hermes ...' this one appears to be too challenging: i'd like to end a game at least on 'novice'-level with all of them with 3-stars. not going to happen... regardless how often i try and how much improvements are already unlocked^^ also starting an expert level now resets all your improvements.

is when they have 15+? TEXT BOXES that, when you click "skip" it says "you may miss something important...are you sure". So you wade through the text boxes - and find NOTHING USEFUL there.

I have enjoyed a few other Hermes TM games, so will give it a few more levels just in case it gets better.
