advice: don't buy it

User Rating: 5 | Caesar II PC
By gertthegamer | Review Date:
Let's go back in time a little bit. How about 5 years? 5 Years ago the only kind of games I played were strategy games. A genre where Caesar fits. I used to play those games for hours. Total annihilation, command and conquer, warcraft, age of empires, I've played all of them for a long time and had a lot of fun with them. Then, when looking for a new game, a friend of mine showed me Caesar 3 wich was a new game at the time. All I did was watch, but somehow I got interested. When I saw Caesar 2 in the shop for a low price I decided to buy it. The first few minutes of gameplay were frustrating because I had no idea what to do. But after those I understood the game and could start to get irritated with riots, thefts, arsenal, plagues....
Nothing I wanted. Especially the fact that houses just dissapeared started to annoy me. After about an hour I uninstalled the game, never to play it again.
