For those of you who never played the original Caesar, or the even better Caesar II, you should know that this is a game of construction. If you need a comparison, it most closely resembles SimCity--some fans even call it SimRome. In Caesar III, you take on the job of a provincial governor in the Roman Empire, trying to extend the borders of Roman civilization and raising a great city out of the pagan dust. You build roads, clear forests, and plunk down virtually every kind of building and structure that was common in cities 2,000 years ago, all while fighting off the occasional barbarian horde and trying to make a profit on the venture.

Battles a bit weak and simplistic

Yes
For a long time I avoided the Caesar series. I had first seen the original Caesar years ago on my trusty AMIGA 500 and never could make head or tail out of it. The single floppy disc which it came on soon found its way to the darkest reaches of my disc box, never to emerge again.

Pros
Challenging, absorbing, and gorgeously rendered
Cons
You may not surface for hours
Recommended it?
Yes
With the frenzy, justifiably, building over the release of Pharaoh, leave us not forget the zenith (to date) of the City Building Series sequence that fathered the genre, Caesar III.
C3 is to C2 what the Concorde is to a Wright-Curtiss biplane; and C2 was itself very good indeed.

Slow load times.

From time to time, we all here the phrase, "There's no need to reinvent the wheel!" or "If it isn't broke, don't fix it." Apparently Maxis, thinks outside the box, and beyond the norm and has decided to reinvent it's hit game "The Sims" with it's new offering "The Sims 2".
