Very nice game! It's a good thing with rather few dots, it's much easier to remember them in the future that way. Lots of dots confuse you and a week or a month later, you've forgotten 75%.

Each of these games has 12 dots.
The two "master" games have 50 dots each.
There are 8 cities scattered among these games which do not appear on either master game.
As I receive new information, I will make corrections to dot placements, spellings, provide alternate names, or swap out cities in any of these games for others which come to my attention that better exemplify a high population to fame ratio. However, I plan to keep the number of dots constant - 12 or 50 - to keep the difficulty level as steady as possible.

Notes about the map are here.

The first of the "building block" games for the more difficult pair:
Populous, but Relatively Obscure-Set 1 &
Populous, but Relatively Obscure-Set 2
See those games for background, rationale, and sources.
