In some ways I like it more than caesar 3 (you don't have to micromanage walkers) but in scale it falls short. Where as in previous caesar games you build sprawling cities in this its just a couple buildings. I've owned this game on other platforms since it came out and beaten twice. My main gripe with it is the maps are indeed cramped and the buildings are huge. Even the bigger maps later in the game just feel like they don't really give you enough space to build a proper roman city, and it in that way it reminds me of a scaled down ANNO, where its more about managing space on a tiny map for a handful of buildings. Not a bad game and worth $10 to people who like city builders but it honestly doesn't have the feel of its predecessors.
