Unfortunately, I've run into the same problem as others here - Aside from the 'Spectator Difficulty', no matter what I put into the soup/broth, I get a negative result from Pharaoh. I would appretiate if there would be a second hotfix to.. .well fix this game, but I know nothing about coding so god knows how complicated the issue might be.
Either way, when played on 'Spectator' diff, its a cool game!
