Not perfect but a good game if you like city building

I have really enjoyed playing this game. It's not perfect but if you like building cities and some battle then it can be fun. Once you figure out how to keep the buildings from burning down it is fairly straightforward. Just make sure that everyone is employed and build entertainment fairly early. The key is to start slow and build the necessary type of house for each building at the concurrently. Check the top level status regularly to see the status employment, entertainment, and crime. Religion and health are also there but are less important.

I would be nice to have a better view into the status of the games economy and of course there are occasional path following issues like most other games. A mini map would be nice as would the ability to issue move requests from the macro zoom level.
