Nebuchadnezzar is a fun game that plays a bit like Anno, but with its own mechanics and different features. The graphics aren't great but have a nostalgic appeal to them, they sort of remind me of the late 90's/early 00's original Age of Empires or Age of Wonders games. The graphics do however show clearly at a glance what’s happening. Temples look nice and you can design them yourself, which is neat. It doesn’t have the depth or advanced UI of the Anno series, but it’s definitely enjoyable for a few hours.

While i find that Nebuchadnezzar is not bad, it is Certainly not on the Level of what it aimed to Be. What i'm talking about is Caesar 3 and Pharaoh, of course. It Had Many Grand Plans, and they just didn't come to be. It's Definitely Solid enough. It's Definitely Beautiful. But it's not Really what you want to get if you want to play a Great City Builder Game. It has lots of "Different" Systems, from your average City Builder, but most of them are Incomplete or Just simply Lacking in Depth. Like, the Logistics was Definitely Unique, but i found it to have far too many I followed this when it was under development, and was Greatly Rewarding to find someone was actually going to Try to do a new Impressions Style City builder but with a new Spin, and i mean not with just a different region, but with new Features and things you can do, Like having a World map and invading other Cities and the such. Which was Especially definitely Piqued my interest, because as a History Buff myself, i know for Certain Nebuchadnezzar Himself would approve. He did Lots of War things in his Time after all. But then Development seemed to Grind to a halt, and eventually just stopped Entirely. Which makes me sad, this could have been so much more, but they just gave up on it. D': I can Definitely Say this is High on the Recommend list, But i would say it's more of a You should get it on sale or Discount thing. Anyone who says this is Terrible and you should not touch it should burn on a Stake, though. So Currently it's About 7/10, If there are any ever some Major mods which fix the games Problems, it can definitely Rise to 8 or 9 However.

Good city builder in the style of the old Impressions games like Pharaoh. It's fun to watch your city grow as you expand your houses and they require more and more resources. The game has issues though. You can easily get into a "doom loop". At one point, my lowest tier population started dropping. After taking a look, it seemed like the beer was running out. Ugh, why? Seemed like I imported copper without disabling it on my beer warehouse. But once your population starts dropping, it can get hard to get out of it! Less population so suddenly your other buildings stop working. Your second tier starts dropping. The only way out is to reload. Gold is also very hard to get. You need to setup an export chain to get gold! If you don't, you'll end up having to, you know, reload. It's also a game that is very strict. 27 houses = 1 milk! No more, no less. And some other finicky stuff like having to place your warehouse right next to your markets. You have to know it or you're not efficient. Still enjoyed the game quite a bit. But games like Anno don't have these issues. There you can see your beer is dropping and you get like half an hour to react. And often, if it's not a base product, your population won't collapse.

Extremely underrated gem, in my opinion a better successor to the Pharao games than the official New Era sequel. If you like Anno, you might also like this one. The graphics, while minimalistic are very beautiful especially when using GamerZakh's colors mods and Viriathius garden and street mods. Generally, the fact that it allows modding is a huge bonus. This feels like how a modern city builder made in modern times but in the flair of old 90s titles should play like. In my opinion, too many people have checked this game out when it was still in development rather than the final state that is 1.4. There are some minor details that I would have loved the developers to dedicate a 1.5 release for but overall I am very happy with the state of the game. If you have only played it some years ago during EA or 1.0 I would 100% give it another shot.

Definitely a great take on and spiritual successor to Pharaoh and other old city builders. A huge shame it is so underrated and underhyped/undermarketed...
