I just came here to say the same thing. The raise and lower tools in particular reminded me of it.

For anyone who hasn't heard of it before: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Populous_(video_game)

You guys have sent me down memory lane. Hopefully, I don't forget when I have free time to search, but hopefully I can find this to play in an emulator somewhere. This was the very first game I ever bought even though I didn't have an Amiga but had one that was very accessible.

edit: couldn't wait. did the search. it's very much available to play online. hello rabbit hole...
