It can be challenging, although not as challenging as some city building games I’ve played in the past, to satisfying everyone’s needs as you have to keep your eye on food and building materials to make sure you’re never in desperate need of any of them. Of course you also have access to slaves too but they are much easier to pacify.

You’ll need the correct blend of Plebs, Equites and Patricians and you’ll need to provide adequate conditions for all of them. Giving you the choice of a family to represent and the ability to take certain bonuses into a mission certainly adds an interesting twist to the game.Īs with any city building game, the challenge comes with getting the balance in your city right. For instance I could choose to purchase some Apulian Wheat Farms (which gave a bonus of +5 wheat) or some Caralis Logging Camps (which gave a bonus of +10 wood). You can choose to add additional abilities to your character or purchase estates before you begin a mission. You’ll have to satisfy the primary objectives in order to complete the mission but the secondary objectives are optional and if you take the effort to complete them you’ll acquire some desirable bonuses. In any given mission there are primary and secondary objectives to complete. Each family has their own advantages and disadvantages so you’ll need to choose a family that will compliment your style of play. You’ll get to play as either a male or female character and you’ll get to choose which of the five available families to be a part of. When you start the Campaign mode you’ll have to create your own character. You’ll probably want get to grips with things first however and there are two tutorials that will get you up to speed with the basics of city building and the combat elements of the game.

In Grand Ages: Rome you have the choice of playing through an extensive, non-linear Campaign mode, taking a more relaxed option with the Free Build mode or getting competitive in the game’s online Multiplayer mode where you can play either competitively or co-operatively.

Those who have played the previous games in the series will find a pretty familiar experience here although there are some interesting additions that help to differentiate Grand Ages: Rome from the previous games. This was later followed up with a sequel entitled Imperium Romanum and here we have a second sequel which again has had a name change to the much more suitable Grand Ages: Rome.

In 2006 we had a glut of Roman flavoured city building games and one of those that arrived that year was Glory of the Roman Empire.
