Step
back to the dawn of recorded time. Take command of a young dynasty
in fertile Mesopotamia. Here, between the Tigris and Euphrates
rivers, lies the cradle of civilization. Here, as the Bible tells,
rose man's first cities: Ur, Nineveh, and fair Babylon.
The
game of Tigris and Euphrates lets you play a part in the epic
saga of the rise of these great urban centers. Your dynasty struggles
to develop and control the most vibrant culture in the rich land
between the two rivers. Create the best balance between markets,
temples, settlements, and farms, as you and your people try to
forge your own new civilization and dominate the storied valleys
of the Tigris and Euphrates.
