I think this is an unofficial port. Populous is a lot older than the Dreamcast. It was originally released for MS-DOS and the Mega Drive / Genesis. As far as I know there wasn’t any official WinCE release. To be honest, by the time WinCE (let alone the Dreamcast) came to market there were already a few sequels to Populous so I doubt they’d have even bothered porting the original DOS game by that point.
