Has anyone tried the game REUS yet?

I am in love with this game so far. It is like Civilization meets Populous meets some puzzle game.

It is on sale for only $8.95 and seems very well done from the time I have had playing it.

I think the game has a website reusgame.com that has more info on it as well. Basically you have control of four element giants/gods/whatever (Swamp, Forest, Rock and ocean) that you use to terraform the land in various combinations that create different environments. By planting various combinations of plants or minerals or animals or whatnot, you get different outcomes from the villages that develop. Be careful though, if one village becomes a little too prosperous, they can become quite greedy and start waging war on the other villages (or even on your giants).

I have only played about an hour or so, but really enjoying it so far, especially at the cheap price.
