There's nothing wrong with this Caesar copy but hardcore micromanagement fans might find it lacking challenge
The first thing that you notice when you enter the game is the beautiful graphics. It's one of the best looking micromanagement games I have seen. Much attention has been given to detail and this is evident on the close zoom levels. Effects like rain effects are well done but the water effects fall flat.
The game also has done its acoustics well. The background sound is neat. So is the voice acting, though it might sometime seem as if the developers expect the player to be a first grader.
The game has a elaborate tutorial that introduces you to the game concepts and makes you comfortable with them quickly enough. The learning curve is not too steep. That's a bonus for the game.
Gameplay is where the game fails to score enough. The gameplay works well and there is little flaw. However it is far too simple for a hardcore micromanagement gamer who finds games any simpler than Pharaoh or Hearts of Iron not worth the genre.
However for first timers in micromanagement games, this is the right place to start. This simple gameplay coupled with an uncluttered interface makes sure that the player does not get lost in numerous menus and controls. Keeping apace the flow of the game has never been easier.
The main problem with the game is that it's far too simple and lacks the necessary challenge that people like me hooked to it. The challenges are inadequately structured and provides little incentive to play the game. The developers could have looked into that part.
As with most other micromanagement games combat is quite weak and yet the emphasis on it is more than that is good for the game.
VERDICT:
This might not be the ideal hardcore micromanagement game, nevertheless it has enough stuff in it for the newbie combined with great visual appeal. And yes there could have been a more convincing challenges.
