Gain wealth and power, make a career out of pleasing the emperor, battle Barbarians and repel invaders, or concentrate on building the next Eternal City. Fail and you’ll end up as lunch for the lions. Prove your strength of mind and spirit and you just may be crowned Caesar!

  • Citizens give you a glimpse into the life of the common man – talk to them for clues about how to improve your city.
  • Various new structures and challenges arise throughout your Governor’s career, for tremendous depth of play and replayability.

First Love

Caesar 3 was my first love in strategy gaming. I loved this game so much I started to think there would never be another game as good until I played Emperor:Rise of the Middle Kingdom. I could not play Caesar 3 for a long time because it did not work on Windows 10. But now it does thanks to our friends at GOG. At first Caesar 3 may seem hard to manage; but once one gets a hold of it, one will do okay. Caesar 3 is a great strategy ciassic.

A classic from my childhood

Caesar III is one of the classic games made by Sierra on the main ancient civilisations. I spent countless hours playing this as a kid and learnt a great deal fronm it. Today, this is fully playable on moder machines. Make sure to download "Augustus"; an unoffoicial mod created by the community that greatly enhances the game without modifying game files.

First among equals.

It is the last days of 2024 and the pile grows ever-larger -- the pile of lifeless immitators aping the bygone genius of Impressions Games. Few have ever surpassed the totality of Caesar III's greatness, released a mere 26 years ago! The secret-sauce recipe needed to produce good city-building/puzzle games seem lost now to the dark-ages of early 2000s aquisitions. But, you do not have to go without! Play this: Caesar III!
