As much as I love Caesar III; it's a little flawed and dated. So I strike out to find something similiar and find this reasonable little game.
At first I was very impressed, there are some fundemental improvements here over the Impressions city builder games; Citizen Happiness, Stockpiles and unemployment/open housing/open jobs on the hud, overlay of buildings effect range before placement, etc. So far so good. But after a couple of hours the flaws start to show, some features that are present in C3 aren't here; Every construction must be accessed by a single menu and then sub menu, buildings have no animations, it's not very colourful graphical nor has much variety in sound and the combat is clunkier than C3 believe it or not.
Some things have been improved on but some stalwart features just havent been taken on at all. I was very much on the fence but what swung it for me was bugs; houses full of starving people who live directly next to a market in a city with a surplus of food and therefore crushes your citizens happiness?! Ultimate frustration.
It's not awful but it could be better.

Even better in HD! Always come back to this game, absolute Classic!

Edit: 2 years since the last DLC release, 5 years since re-release, 19 years since original release; AAAAAAAND STILL one of the best ever!
