Romopolis







Build a society in ancient Roman times with Romopolis. Build necessary housing and services to keep you citizens happy. Upgrade buildings and introduce new conveniences as you expand your empire. Colorful game play will inspire you to become a great leader, earning fame, honor, and riches along the way as you build your way through Romopolis.



Romopolis is a strategy game that places you back in the days of ancient Rome, being called to serve the Emperor as an architect. Design and build cities to the Emperor's directives, earning money and honor, and the hearts of the people you care for. Bring convenieinces to your citizens to make them happier and willing to pay more in taxes. This colorful game even has a sandbox mode so that you can design your own game!
   
Romopolis reminded me a lot of Build-a-lot, but done with structures and sounds associated with ancient Rome. The boys came to see the game, but were not drawn to play Romopolis. I think it reminded them of a simple Pharaoh, Cleopatra, and Ceasar III, which they enjoy playing several times a year. We love these games for the way they make you plan for what you will need, and allow you to make mistakes to learn from!
