This game is a real treat for fans of the entire series (Zeus + Poseidon, Pharaoh + Cleopatra, Caesar 3). The creators did a lot of research on ancient China and it shows; the overall aesthetic and look of the game looks great. A minor quirk that really shouldn't affect gameplay, but the voice acting did not age well (over-exaggerated 'Chinese' accents, yikes) and the graphics and portraits aren't great. Just a quick note here since it seems to be a fairly common problem with no surefire solution: if the building animations don't load, you need to update the graphics driver manually. 1) In the search box on the taskbar, enter device manager, then select Device Manager. 2) Select Display Adaptors to display the names of your graphics drivers. Mine is NVIDIA but yours may differ. 3) Make a note of the driver's name, and search for the driver update on the manufacturer's website. Ensure you get the correct update for your driver 4) Download and run the .exe file, you may need to restart Windows afterwards Hope this helps!
