The game is amazing with incredible detail and historical authenticity. It is a shame that a single developer can achieve this yet AAA companies keep releasing slop with little historical authenticity. The only issues I have in the game is really the optimization. Once your city grows to a modest size, the FPS drop like crazy and you basically can't zoom out to see your city in its entirety because the lag becomes unbearable. Also another issue I think is the size of the maps. They are quite small while some of the buildings you unlock later on are huge and easily occupy a huge chunk of the map. However, I think the optimization problems need to be addressed first before bigger maps are added. I still give it a positive review because the developer did an amazing work on this game and when he started developing the game in like 2018 he wasn't even experienced in creating games. I also know he is working on optimizing the game and reducing lag so it assuring knowing the game will only get better in the future, though it will probably take some time since he is a single developer working in the game. I've seeing some reviews talking about crashes but I haven't experienced any crashes to date, I've also seen some talking about not being able to save the game and having to restart every time which isn't the case either, you can save the game and resume from where you left. I don't know if that may have been an issue earlier but it isn't as of right now.

Honestly the UI is dreadful, and some game dynamics are basically never explained, but there are some things in this game I REALLY appreciate. The modular buildings offer so much variety to plan the city the way you want it. I hope they will keep up the great work and keep improving it

If you value your free time, be warned—this game is dangerously addictive. I’ve played nearly every Roman city-building title since the Caesar series, but this one… this one truly stands out. It captures everything: the depth of Roman society, the authenticity of the architecture, and the historical accuracy of urban planning. Everything feels spot-on. My only wish would be for more options to beautify the city—additional gardens and decorative elements would make it even better.

I do recommend this game. BUT only to experienced/adventurous players. This is coming from someone who only played the story mode up until now. The game doesnt really have a tutorial so it took me 4 attempts to get things running in the first settlement. So dont be dishartened when you fail a few times. Thats not because the mechanics are overly complex just because they are just different enough and not really explained. Before this ends in a novel i just want to highlight a few positives and negatives: +++ asthetics and visuals ++ general level of detail + interesting mechanics to figure out + music & sounds + forum/market contruction + fair price -- lack of instructions (though i do like to figure things out myself a la "workers and resources") -- bugs (a lot), mostly minor - loading times - in story mode you get ripped from your colony when things just become interesting. - map size - missing QOL in some areas

Best game ever ,have been to Rome and Pompeii ,the research and authenticity that has gone into this historic game is amazing . I am hooked . I know it is still in its early stages can be a bit buggy (not criticising) for one man to achieve all this is awesome. Tony.
