  Romopolis is an old game that has been brought to steam to make the game more accessible to gamers that enjoy these sorts of games on the PC market. Romopolis is a great game for it's genre, though if you're looking for the same experience as Sim City or Cities Skylines, you won't find that here. Romopolis is not a bad game, in fact, it is quite good in the gameplay style it covers, however, I fear that for many people on the PC this could be a let down. You have a campaign mode which provides you 24 different missions to complete. Each level is more difficult than the previous and the time limit to acquire the medal/achievemnt is the biggest challenge which I find quite fun. Outside of that you have a sandbox mode, however, the sandbox mode doesn't work like most games. It doesn't give you an empty map and let you create your city, no, it is more of an editor to allow you to develop your own scenarios and share them with your friends. While this isn't a bad thing, it isn't really the traditional sandbox mode we all know and love. The maps are small and scenario orientated. Once you're done with the scenario, that's pretty much it. All in all it's a good fun game to play here and there. It has great visuals, the gameplay and upgrading systems are well thought out and the sounds are pretty good too. Overall. For $3.99, it's good value and will provide several hours of fun.

  Unlike advertisement, this game is NOT full city management game. More like stage clear type puzzle game than city strategy/simulation. Good for killing time in short break, but not really suited for long time play (there isn't much to keep you hooked in). Even with sandbox mode, I don't think this game offers a lot of replayable stuff. Unless you like simple game to kill some time, stay clear from here if you want some heavy strategy/simulation game to get stuck in.

  It's alright, for how cheap it is, but you might not be getting exactly what you expected in this game. Romopolis only appears to be a city builder simulation game on its surface, but after a couple missions it becomes clear that the game is in fact a puzzle game. Each scenario you are given a 5x5 squared grid to build on with obstacles (either in the form of tiles you cannot build on or buildings that impose a negative effect on your nearby structures. Objectives usually require you to have a certain amount of specific buildings or have a set amount of resources, which requires you to plan your city's layout. This is all done with a time limit, too, so you either need to make use of the pause button a lot or know the game well.

  This game catches your eye at first glance, but thats it. It starts to get repetitive after a while. It is still worth a shot if on sale though. I wish there was a neutral recommendation option on a situation like this.

  What a cute wonderful little simulation game. I picked this gem up today for $0.59 today. And man this is a steal for such a fun rainy day game. It's pretty basic in it's control; click a square, pick what you want to build and if you have the proper resources you then wait out the timere and vwah lah your new building is built. Definitely a resource balancing game at it's very basic. Balancing Houses, with cultural, market, and religeous buidlings against the cost of new workers, new upgrades, and new resources. Some maps have certain blocks that you don't want to build houses around or suffer pentalites, and some of the maps offer difficulty for the goals laid out to complete. Currently only have 7 hours in, but after playing it for 7 hours I just had to write a review to let others know about this gem before it goes off sale. EDIT: It also has a sandbox mode to play with and make up your own goals. I use it personally to test therories on how to build certain resources faster on a map that I have problems with. Also available are achievements to aquire like most games of today.

  [b]Game Type/Genre:[/b] City Builder [b]Casual: [/b] Yes [b]Theme: [/b] Roman [b]Controls:[/b] Mouse, simple [b]Difficulty:[/b] Moderate [b]AI:[/b] None [b]Achievements:[/b] 20ish reasonably easy to get [h1]Micro[/h1] A simple point and click city builder where what you build is mostly determined based on pre-set level goals. Few building types and few relevant upgrades quickly devolve into a repetitive level goal oriented gameplay. [h1]Recommended?[/h1] I cannot recommend this game. The amount of building types seems sufficient for the relative small maps but what upgrades you build is dependent on the mission goal meaning you quickly get stuck into building what the game tells you to build right up to the very last level. The missions themselves can be quite challenging due to the time restrictions for the medals that can be achieved. Even in sandbox mode you just mess around until the map is full and there’s no real ‘sim city’-style urban sprawl going on that would keep you going. [u][b]Value For Money[/b][/u] This game will taper off quickly after the first 10-15 hours in which you should easily clear most if not all of the achievements. After that there’s really nothing to keep you coming back meaning at a 3.99 euro pricetag this offers too little real value for money. [h1]Macro[/h1] [b]Romopolis[/b] is a basic point and click city builder set in a roman theme offering simple graphics to click yourself towards certain pre-set goals per level (i.e. build 15 of type x houses, collect 12 culture etc. etc.) To achieve a medal or trophy in each level certain goals must either be met by the end of the level or within a certain time limit making a bunch of the levels a decent challenge to set up correctly. This particular challenge approach is also what makes this game better than just junk. However the amount of different types of houses and the upgrades you can do on each house are really limited and for living space often revolves around +20% income and while income is nice some differentiation between the upgrades could’ve really given the game some more depth. After you complete your campaign you could dig into sandbox mode but will quickly figure out that it’s the same as the base game other than setting your own goals. Since the maps are restricted to the same size for each level and the sandbox mode you really run into city building restrictions and can never exceed the effective 25 building cap. This game could’ve really benefitted from some more depth in the upgrade system and larger map options that could potentially lifted it out of it’s ‘this is just a flash game’ kind of feel that I get from it now. The upside really is that if you get it on sale you will notice that you should be able to take care of all achievements in the 10-15 hours range which at least means you can do a full clear while having a little bit of fun. 4/10: Forgettable

  I'll start this review by highlighting that this is not a city management simulator, as it may seem. It is a collection of 24 puzzles with city building theme and nothing more. The mechanics are also pretty simple; build houses, houses give you gold, gold buy resources/workers, and with them you build more houses. You also buy "technologies" to unlock higher tier buildings, some of which you need to keep the citizens "happy". Each map consists of a 5x5 grid, usually with some squares where you cannot build on (e.g. water, bridges, fortresses). Each map presents you with a goal, which terminates the map immediately once fulfilled. Besides the 24 puzzles, there is one Time Trophy for solving each one within a certain deadline, and Challenge Trophy for solving the puzzle while completing one extra task. If you want to get all the achievements, you'll have to solve all 24 puzzles with all of its respective 48 Trophies. The levels are straighforward, though sometimes the Time Trophy forced me to scratch my chin. Nothing overly frustrating. There is little to no replayability once you collected the 48 Trophies. The game offers a "sandbox" mode where you can basically challenge yourself, but it if it doesn't sound interesting, it is because it isn't. The game is pretty inexpensive, has trading cards and decent achievements. The Linux port gave me no troubles either. It is a pretty decent casual game to play when you want a 15min distraction.
