All other versions of the game must be patched using the patch offered by their respective publishers.

Note that the official patches one can find in the downloads section here at HeavenGames and also elsewhere on the internet, are only for the version released by Sierra. The solution in that case is to uninstall the game, manually make sure by checking in Windows Explorer that the games mainfolder including contents is deleted and then only install Zeus. On some computers running WinXP or newer, it is possible to run Zeus without problems but as soon as Poseidon is installed, the game behaves like you experience. It could also be your antivirus program hindering the game in starting so try disable it and see if that helps. Some programs can not run while Aero is enabled. If you have Aero enabled, try select a non-Aero theme or try what Eswen suggests (thanks Eswen for reminding me). There is a rumor about a new wave of Mac releases soon, but no way of knowing if that will be one of them.Pharaoh and Zeus are not 100% similar in the game engine and the copyprotection is also updated to a newer version on Zeus.

:) GOG so far only has one (I think) Wineskin port - Freespace. Or you can wait for GOG to do it, but they'll port and release it in their own time. Acropolis delivers the city-building excitement and strategy of both Zeus Master of Olympus and Zeus Official Expansion Poseidon. The aforementioned Pall the tall site also has how-to videos and Wineskin has tutorials. My advice is use Wineskin ( ), but CrossOver might be easier and will work (I learned on Wineskin so it is also newbie friendly, but not quite as much as CrossOver - the other difference is wineskin is free, CrossOver is not). It's scarier than it looks simply because he goes through all the options and different ways to go about it. If you are keen on learning, try Rampancy's thread: Ashley0129: Where can i get Zeus for mac? on here it says compatible with pc with just a little work, you can do it yourself (Pall the Tall also has pre-made wrappers for many games as linked to above)
