Quite enjoyable, but ...
CivCity Rome is quite enjoyable, when you like these kind of city management games. Its graphics are bit shabby, but you dont care. Its a city management game, not a shooter. Its gameplay is bit less complex compared to the latest games from the CityBuilder series from Impressions (Caesar, Pharao et all), but you dont care. Big is not always better, CivCity Rome is a nice diversion from the usual extreme micromanagement and handholding of the Impressions series. The gameplay is more mission goal oriented, less optimizing the heck out of the last hut in northern left corner. Music and audio are decent. Its a city management game with a roman setting, you get what you expect. But there is one thing, one thing i hate, really HATE about this game: During a misson random events can occur. Which isnt that bad an idea, because they can add more variety to the gameplay. You have to react and adapt your city layout, your wares production and distribution. On paper, its a good feature. In reality it is balanced like f***!! An example: You have a mission to build a certain building. For this building you need a certain amount of rare ressources. Ressources which cannot be traded but have to be mined on the map. Then a random event comes along and destroys your warehouse. Ressources are lost (which is ok, such things can happen). Ressources, you need for completing your mission (which is bad, very bad). Yes, you cannot win the mission anymore because a random event destroyed crucial ressources. Yes, you have to start the mission over and hope for more luck next time. I hate this feature. With a vengeance! Therefore only three stars from easily four or even five.
Hilft dir das weiter?
