How close does the game get to the real place?
In the game
The sacred island of Apollo in the Cyclades, a busy island of temples, houses and harbours in the game.
The real place
Delos was the mythical birthplace of Apollo and Artemis and later a major trading port. Nobody has lived there for centuries; the whole island is now an archaeological site, famous for its Terrace of the Lions.
Visiting
Boats run from Mykonos in about 30 minutes. Bring water and a hat; there is very little shade and you cannot stay overnight.
