Under the leadership of iron-fisted Caesar's successors, the ancient Roman Empire gradually became the prototype for the creation of the modern world. Experience what it was like to live in this tumultuous time in history as you take on the role of an aspiring provincial governor in your custom-made ancient Roman city. As governor, you must lay out each city, ensure your citizens' health and well-being, and protect the homeland from barbarian threats. Being in a position of power requires strength, knowledge and a dogged mentality. Do you have what it takes to grow your new-found city into a thriving metropolis, or will you be toppled, just like Caesar?

Use 100 unique buildings, diagonal roads and a set of decorative items to transform your small village into a expansive cosmopolitan city. Big cities have their fair share of problems. It's your duty to resolve issues, including blazing fires, rampant raids and riots, deadly plagues and famines, before they spiral out of control. Maintain a balanced empire, climb up the political ranks, and you'll secure a place for yourself in the pages of history as the new Caesar.
