Actually Four Mooks: Some gods will go to a resource alone and return with a line of human carriers behind them. Going by the loading screens, some monsters actually attack in hordes rather than the single specimen that appears on the game map. | |

Instant-Win Condition: Colony missions only require you to have a certain amount of resources sent back to the parent city, as you're there to set up basic industries, one of which will be their tribute in following missions. In fact, you can simply ask around for the necessary resources and win in a few minutes. | |

"The Mayan Adventure" has a single Undefeatable Little Village that will never be conquered, no matter how many huge armies you send at them, as the "Ruler has dismissed most of his military" event never triggers. | |

It Only Works Once: If an attacking city destroys your palace, you can continue playing as their vassal. If you're conquered by someone else and the original conqueror returns and wins, you lose the level. Summoning a hero only works once per level, if you finish the mission and return you'll have to wait for the hero's presence to be required again. | |

Unwanted Assistance | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_24b88e85 | comment |
Unwanted Assistance: Hermes will sometimes fulfill a request with his own supplies whether you want him to or not, leading to rival leaders condescendingly thanking you for caving to their demands. Tributes and offers of aid are often sent when you have no need of them, and building storage facilities or giving away surplus goods can be a major hassle. Despite the offended tone of the reactions to refusing the gifts, it doesn't affect intercity relations in any way. You can do this to other cities by continuously sending them goods until they tell you to stop (even with money). An In-Universe case during the Odyssey campaign, where the suitors figured out Penelope wasn't making any progress on her tapestry because their excessive gifts of fleece kept getting refused. | |

Anachronism Stew: It's possible to have Perseus and Hercules (Perseus' great-grandson) running around at the same time. Achilles (the youngest of the heroes in The Trojan War) and Ulysses appear during the founding of Atlantis and several generations later, despite Troy being founded by Atlantean refugees in the game's chronology. Atlantis is founded in 3500 BC in the game, and yet Hera complains about Poseidon being granted patronage of the continent by citing the competition between him and Athena for Athens. | |

Plot Armor: Given to your enemies. Some cities simply aren't meant to be conquered until the game says so (the best way to find out is to send a huge army to attack a practically-defenseless city and watch them come back in defeat). In some cases, rival cities can be conquered through sufficient expenditure of troops, but by the next level the ones you weren't supposed to take over will go right back to being rivals. | |

Awesome, but Impractical | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: Sanctuaries are high-appeal buildings that provide divine favor and can provide you with otherwise-difficult to obtain resources. Unfortunately, they're also huge, take a lot of time, marble, wood and sculptures to build, need a lot of workers, and if your city produces fleece, cheese or cattle, will require constant monitoring and replenishing of your flocks as priests take animals for sacrifice. Even worse is what happens if you run out of animals to sacrifice: the priests will start sacrificing food instead (by burning it), meaning you risk starving your population. A hippodrome more than 200 stades long brings in 500 drachma a month - but not only is it a pathing nightmare, it also causes your citizens to dislike you as you're evidently more obsessed with the races than their well-being. Heroes have very heavy requirements (such as 32 of a resource, large armies, or even a functioning sanctuary or two) before you can summon them. Fortunately, monsters can eventually be killed by regular troops or, more rarely, by an outmatched hero. In addition, Apollo will single-handedly defend the city from monsters if you build a sanctuary to him (and is the only god to do so, as the other gods consider it beneath them). If you let monsters run amok until the final level of a campaign, you can then use multiple heroes for the last map. It's possible to have enough high-level housing to have an army consisting entirely of horsemen/chariots. Quite aside from finding the space to house them, sending them all on campaign leaves you with only static defenses and invites attack from other cities. A sanctuary to Ares grants the ability for the man himself to participate in an invasion, guaranteeing victory of a city on your behalf. The cooldown on this is also so long that you're probably only using it once a campaign, and Ares may randomly use it on his own anytime you invade someone. | |

Everybody Hates Hades | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_2cfee88 | comment |
Everybody Hates Hades: Subverted: Hades is one of the more useful gods, since he's lord of the Underworld - and all the silver inside it. His temple creates veins of silver ore, he wanders around the city making tax collectors produce double (gives new meaning to the saying "Death and taxes", doesn't it?), praying to him gets you even more money, and his Hell Hound goes around eating troublemakers. Conversely, when pissed off, he sends Cerberus at you or curses those same buildings, and worst of all, kills a large amount of walkers just by showing up. | |

Sadly Mythtaken | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_2ec87029 | comment |
Sadly Mythtaken: Hoo boy. Among the Twelve Olympians, Hades (who wasn't considered an Olympian because he didn't live on Mount Olympus) replaces Hestia. Most of Hestia's purview is given to Aphrodite instead. The tutorial subverts this, in that killing the Cyclops causes Poseidon (father of the Cyclopes) to get pissed off at you. In other missions, he's Zeus' special monster. Poseidon's monster is the Kraken. Note that it's not the Giant Squid of Norse Mythology, it's a giant talking fish-man (closer to the actual Sea Monster killed by Perseus, named Cetus). In Poseidon, centaurs are apparently a civilized race, responding with complete politeness when defeated. Those in Zeus are the usual drunken brutes, forever demanding that you send them wine. There are two entities named Atlas in Greek Mythology: the Titan (son of Gaia and Ouranos) holding up the sky and the first king of Atlantis (son of Poseidon), neither of which was a god. The game conflates the two after the latter ascends to Olympus. Atalanta's only claim to monster-slaying in myth was participating in the hunt for the Calydonian boar (which Theseus kills in-game), here she kills the Sphinx (instead of Oedipus solving its riddle) and the Harpy (instead of Jason). | |

Game-Breaking Bug: On occasion, a food buyer will continuously show up to a granary and disappear without buying anything, leaving the food shop empty, triggering the catastrophic collapse of the entire city as no food is delivered (and not caused by Critical Staffing Shortage for once). This is apparently caused by having too many direct walkers in the city. | |

Boring, but Practical | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6 | comment |
Boring, but Practical: Hermes doesn't provide resources, summon giant monsters to defend the city or fight invaders... but he makes delivery walkers go faster and traders come by more often, in addition to fulfilling requests for you. Atlas speeds up monument construction by providing needed supplies and workers (and often does so on his own). Paying off invading armies is a lot faster and easier than fighting them. It can even be cheaper than caving to the attackers' demands. | |

The Famine: Famine in other cities is also an occasional event, but it's made easier by the fact that they ask for any kind of food and you can ask for food from any food-producing city, which they'll give if your relationship with them is high enough (including, in some cases, the city currently suffering from famine). One mission sees your sources of importable food slowly dwindle until you're limited to the oranges you can grow and urchins, while the coastline keeps changing until your urchin collectors can't reach the urchin banks. The ending narration notes that everyone in the city is out of recipes for oranges. | |

Gameplay and Story Segregation | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_6320eced | comment |
Gameplay and Story Segregation: Loading screens and inter-mission exposition reveals that the heroes engaged in epic combat with the monsters. In-game, they close in then beat the snot out of each other until one drops. Particularly painful for Atalanta, who supposedly stunned the sphinx by answering its riddle so it didn't even see her shooting her arrows. The centaur cities were supposedly razed to the ground by the Atlanteans... except that during the level they behave exactly as regular cities do, continuously sending tribute and being very polite about it. One mission sends you to Egypt to teach the locals how to build pyramids. The flooding of the Nile is simulated by having tidal waves destroy any coastal buildings. Anytime a previously-invulnerable city is weakened by the plot (Trojan Horse, Atlantean superweapon...), the only in-game explanation is that the city's leader has decided to greatly reduce his military. It's entirely possible to react to a city asking for goods by requesting that very same good from them if they produce it (including food during a famine). Not only will they comply if they like you enough, you can then send part of their gift (which may have been in larger quantities than they asked for) back to earn their gratitude. Winning a colony level usually only requires that you send a certain amount of local goods to the parent city. As there's usually several cities producing the necessary goods, you can simply ask them for the goods and send them over, with the task of actually organizing the productive infrastructure falling to your successor. | |

The (male) narrator falls into this when reporting what various goddesses have to say. During the Trojan War campaign, he accidentally uses the Spartan narrator's voice for Aphrodite before correcting himself. | |

Dynamic Difficulty | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_63c6c615 | comment |
Dynamic Difficulty: In a roundabout way; in the colony mission of the first campaign, your city is attacked by Talos, who can only be defeated by Jason. However, the requirements to summon Jason are outrageous for a small map with few resources, and defeating Talos isn't required to complete the mission, or even expected, as the victory text assumes that you left Talos alone and he follows you back to Thebes, where summoning Jason is much more reasonable. However, it is possible, though very difficult, to fulfil the requirements for Jason to arrive and defeat the behemoth. Your reward for all of this? Since you were skilled enough to defeat Talos, the very next month after his defeat, Zeus himself will invade your city, destroying your palace and cursing your industries, presumably to punish you for Script Breaking. And then Talos follows you back to Thebes in the next mission anyway. | |

Jerkass Gods: In full force. Many attacks by gods are only motivated by a god seeking revenge on another god (or a hero), and harming everything they hold dear... such as your city. And that's if you're lucky and the opening narration explains it, sometimes they just attack without giving you a reason. This can be averted with a fully-completed (and very expensive) sanctuary for Zeus, as Zeus will chase off any attacking god. | |

Unblockable Attack: Gods can't be prevented from rampaging around without a stronger god (and even then, defending gods don't always react immediately to the invaders' presence). Monsters can be attacked by troops and a different hero, but it takes a long time to kill one without the appropriate hero. Ares and Artemis' troops can be engaged as normal, however. | |

In campaigns, leaving them alone until the last mission can actually be beneficial, as this leaves you with extra heroes for battle abroad (as heroes' halls disappear from mission to mission and can't be rebuilt unless a quest/monster requires their presence). | |

Patron God: As in the original myths, cities are often declared dedicated to a single god, which causes no small amount of resentment in other gods, who usually attack/sends monsters to your city. As the angry god is often higher on the divine totem pole than the patron god, it's often only in the last few levels of a campaign that you can finally do more than simply endure their attacks and use your own allied Top God to send them packing. Each god protects a different industry (Poseidon blesses fisheries, Athena blesses olive growers, Artemis blesses hunters, etc.) and the city can build up to 4 temples to these gods to obtain different blessings from them. | |

Death or Glory Attack | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_9446f847 | comment |
Death or Glory Attack: It's possible to have your city's troops consist entirely of infantry and cavalry (meaning no rabble/archers). Sending them all against your enemies has a higher chance of success, but it means other cities instantly attack you due to having no troops to defend the city. | |

Meteor-Summoning Attack | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_968bd0f8 | comment |
Meteor-Summoning Attack: The "Fireballs from Heaven" command causes fireballs to crash onto the target area, replacing just about anything under it with rubble that can then be cleared away, including enemies, monsters, gods, rocky terrain, and earthquake cracks (which normally can only be partly neutralized by building roads). The only exception is lava, which becomes walkable terrain but still can't be built upon. | |

Superweapon Surprise | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_97f53f5b | comment |
Superweapon Surprise: Very surprising: The Atlanteans, under Ares' guidance, are building a superweapon to deal with Greek threats once and for all. Unfortunately, Odysseus manages to infiltrate and fire the weapon at Atlantis itself, destroying the sanctuary of Poseidon, before sabotaging it so it can't be used again. It's used in the final level to weaken Mycenae, and in another campaign where it succeeds in destroying Atlantis. | |

Apollo is the god of arts and healing, who wanders the city blessing cultural buildings so they produce more walkers and perform better. He also singlehandedly defends the city from invading monsters, and if you piss him off he'll unleash plagues on your city, and by cursing culture/science buildings ensure your housing will collapse in no time flat. | |

Video Game Delegation Penalty | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_acaf9059 | comment |
Video Game Delegation Penalty: Inverted with bribing armies. This is much faster than actually fighting, which cuts into your manpower, slowing down production for months, and frees you from having to maintain expensive troops. That said, if you maintain zero troops whatsoever (or have an all-elite army and send all of them to war) other cities will happily attack you. Played straight with the auto-combat system in which troop movements are handled by the computer, usually resulting in entirely avoidable losses because the troops only go to their preset positions instead of defending outlying suburbs. Honoring the gods can net you some very interesting blessings such as increasing trade frequency or instantly killing enemy armies. However, to prevent you from getting overly reliant on them there is a limit to how often you can pray/hold festivals per year. Furthermore, sacrifices regularly eats up your sheep/goats/cattle/food, which need to be manually replaced (there's no automatic warning that your livestock population is getting low, meaning your first hint is all your housing simultaneously devolving to hovels or shacks and the catastrophic loss of manpower that entails). | |

Artemis sends the Calydonian Boar. Apollo sends Scylla. Hermes sends the Minotaur. Hephaestus sends Talos. Aphrodite sends Hector. Athena sends the Hydra. Hera sends the Sphinx. Ares sends a dragon. Demeter sends Medusa. Dionysus sends a Maenad. Atlas sends the Chimera (instead of the usual three-headed monster, the Chimera consists of a giant lion in front, a goat's body in front, and a snakelike tail). The Harpy (a giant bird with a woman's head) and Echidna (usually half-snake half woman, here a woman's head on a snake's body) attack on their own. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Just about every line issued by a walker refers to a character/monster from Classical Mythology or a famous ancient Greek (regardless of whether or not said famous Greek was even born at the time). The actor school's line "Build me a pyre to roast my friends upon" is almost a literal quotation from Lysistrata, as are "For Athens' sake I will never threaten so fell a doom" and "If only they had been invited to a Bacchic reveling, or a feast of Pan or Aphrodite!" (and is indeed one of the women's lines, being spoken by Lysistrata herself). "My advice to you is, get married. If you find a good wife, you will be happy. If not, you'll become a philosopher" is from Socrates. "You can discover more about a person in an hour of play than in a year of conversation" is attributed to Plato. The game's developer acknowledges in the manual a debt to late-night reruns of Xena: Warrior Princess for inspiration, which is evident in the game's much sillier, campier tone in comparison to Caesar III and Pharaoh. Certain snippets of Keith Zizza's score echo some of Joseph LoDuca's Xena themes, and the gods notably appear and disappear with the exact same visual and sound effects as they do in Xena. | |

Death of a Thousand Cuts | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_cadf2d2a | comment |
Death of a Thousand Cuts: Attacking a full-strength city is usually suicide, it's better to continuously raid them for supplies and chip away at their strength. Attacking a monster with regular troops is very slow, but will eventually kill the monster at the cost of who knows how many replacement soldiers. | |

Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu? | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_cc4d190a | comment |
Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: Monsters can be brought down by regular armies, including rabble/archers. But it takes so long, it's only really viable on huge maps where the monster won't rampage through your town. Orichalcum-enhanced towers can sometimes turn even attacking gods to stone. | |

Resource-Gathering Mission | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_cf1e7e98 | comment |
Resource-Gathering Mission: Campaigns are centered on building up a single Greek city, interspersed with building colonies that will then provide the main city with annual tribute (usually the material you were sent to gather) and a trading partner. During the main missions, requirements will usually include storing certain goods for the colony (which are then given to you at the beginning of the level), while the colony requirements themselves are usually limited to sending back the requested amount of whatever trade good the city needed. Here the difficulty is not so much running out of resources as it is building up the infrastructure to collect them with any efficiency (along with natural disasters, demands from the parent city, attacks by rivals, monsters, gods...) The demands for food by other cities are made much easier by the game now allowing you to send any type of food. If your relationship with them is good enough, it's even possible to ask for food from another city (yes, including the one begging you for famine relief) and send it on its way as soon as you receive it. | |

It's entirely possible to react to a city asking for goods by requesting that very same good from them if they produce it (including food during a famine). Not only will they comply if they like you enough, you can then send part of their gift (which may have been in larger quantities than they asked for) back to earn their gratitude. | |

Fertility God | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_e0c83877 | comment |
Fertility God: Demeter's Sanctuary turns all the land around it to meadow, on which livestock, crops or farms can be placed. She'll also bless farms and can fill granaries with food if prayed to. She's also the fourth most-powerful goddess after the Big Three, so having her around can thwart quite a few invasions by other gods. Naturally, having her as an enemy will cause a lot of problems for agriculture-based cities. Gods associated with a particular foodstuff (Poseidon for seafood, Artemis for wild game, Hera for oranges) or trade crop (Dionysus for grapes, Athena for olives) will bless their particular industry, making it more productive, and can provide large amounts of it when prayed to. Hera, Dionysus and Athena also provide groves for their crops, allowing your city to harvest a small amount every year. Aphrodite isn't a fertility goddess in the usual sense (population only increases through immigration if you have the housing for it), but if you've suffered a massive population loss due to disease she can instantly replenish your population... for less than heroic reasons. | |

| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_e6630c8b | comment |
Gameplay and Story Integration: Oceanid trade ships are no different from those of humans, despite the cities being underwater and their species being amphibious. The post-game exposition claims they do this to avoid freaking people out and make trading easier. Oceanid armies have no need for transport ships and move underwater, meaning your frigates can't attack them. The Kraken, however, can. The Odyssey campaign has several: Penelope's trick with the tapestry is discovered not through a servant's treachery, but by the suitors wondering why their gifts of fleece keep getting refused. The mission requirement for elite housing is presented as a way to get the suitors out of the palace. Atlas sends Hercules to widen the Strait of Gibraltar. In-game, there's a flood that plows through the strait (at the start of the next level), widening it. Some missions actually stick to the myths and not the gameplay: Missions with a hostile Poseidon often feature him sending the Cyclops (despite his personal monster being the Kraken). Similarly, one level has Athena claim the Hydra was Ares' pet, when normally she's the one sending it. | |

Classical Chimera | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_e87aed53 | comment |
Atlas sends the Chimera (instead of the usual three-headed monster, the Chimera consists of a giant lion in front, a goat's body in front, and a snakelike tail). | |

Exact Words | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_e9e35e8f | comment |
Exact Words: The Symphonia Ithikos prevents Atlanteans from raising arms against anyone except in self-defense, under penalty of divine retribution. Later levels clarify that this only applies on the actual continent of Atlantis, leaving you free to send your armies against Mayans, Phoenicians, and Greeks. On one occasion, two Atlantean cities declare war on you and each other, so conquering both is the victory condition. | |

Simple, yet Awesome: Avenues and Boulevards allow you to connect a building to a road while being one tile away, allowing them to keep road access while letting superintendants go on a longer route as they don't have to take a twisting path. And of course, prettying up the place. | |

Atlantis | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_ee19033d | comment |
Atlantis: Here, it's a respectably-sized continent right in the middle of the Atlantic, close enough to Europe and South America that it allows trade between the Mayans and the Phoenicians. Poseidon's first campaign has you build it from the ground up, while two campaigns end with its destruction (one of them firsthand). | |

Artificial Insolence | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_eec07277 | comment |
Artificial Insolence: Repeatedly requesting aid from other cities (especially military or joint strikes) very quickly causes you to lose favor with them, requiring lots of time and bribery before you can ask again (presumably to avoid the player abusing the mechanic). On the other hand, it leads straight to Gameplay and Story Segregation when the entire point of a colony-founding mission is to set up a strong military outpost to fight back against an oppressive empire... who then refuses to help you. | |

Oddball in the Series | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_f068cba | comment |
Oddball in the Series: The tone and artwork are notably more cartoonish than in the rest of the series, with the narration, events and exposition usually relying on sarcasm, silly voices and tongue-in-cheek humor. Also, unlike the other games, Zeus doesn't use the name of a political, human leader (since Ancient Greece wasn't a unified entity) in the title, but goes with a mythological one instead. Several key mechanics are notably simplified, some of which get reverted in Emperor. | |

Script Breaking | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_f75c8193 | comment |
Script Breaking: During the Trojan campaign, you cannot attack Troy until the war itself begins. When the war begins Troy receives a massive boost in military strength shortly into the mission, making it effectively unassailable without going through the rest of the campaign. However there is a short interval where you can invade and conquer Troy before they receive the boost. They will then remain your faithful vassal throughout the campaign, massively cutting down the number of invasions you'll have to face, while the story will continue to treat Troy as an enemy. In the final mission you'll even need to re-invade Troy despite them being a vassal in order to win the war. | |

| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_f87c42d4 | comment |
The demands for food by other cities are made much easier by the game now allowing you to send any type of food. If your relationship with them is good enough, it's even possible to ask for food from another city (yes, including the one begging you for famine relief) and send it on its way as soon as you receive it. | |

Hopeless Boss Fight | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_fc07d409 | comment |
Hopeless Boss Fight: If you're not supposed to conquer a city before the game says so, it will resist every attempt made to conquer it although its strength will be reduced, so the only way to tell is to see a one-shield city defeating eight chariot companies, five triremes, three heroes and a War God. Gods cannot be beaten by anything other than a stronger god (except, sometimes, Orichalcum-powered towers). You're almost always given the ability to build a sanctuary to a stronger god (sometimes Zeus) in the final levels, although the Sparta campaign doesn't and you'll just have to grin and bear it every time Athena comes calling. | |

Beware the Nice Ones | |
| Zeus: Master of Olympus (Video Game) / int_fccd06b6 | comment |
Beware the Nice Ones: Apollo is the god of arts and healing, who wanders the city blessing cultural buildings so they produce more walkers and perform better. He also singlehandedly defends the city from invading monsters, and if you piss him off he'll unleash plagues on your city, and by cursing culture/science buildings ensure your housing will collapse in no time flat. Dionysus is a permanently drunken, fun-loving guy who increases you wine production and even gives you some if prayed to, but if angered he'll unleash madwomen on the city, curse the wineries, and send walkers to eternal drunkeness. Demeter, goddess of agriculture. Sounds like a pushover, right? Except that she's the 4th-strongest Olympian, meaning if she's pissed at you, you need Hades, Poseidon or Zeus (or Hera, in Atlantis) on your side to stop her from going around destroying crops and agoras. | |
