Is this the best Ancient Roman City-builder? Grand Ages: Rome!

The Caesar series established itself as the de facto ancient Roman city-builder. Beginning with Caesar 1 where it was almost more like a Roman themed SimCity to becoming a unique walker-based puzzle city-building game in Caesar 3, once they found a formula that worked, they brought it through the ancient world through Egypt, Greece, and China, but when the Impressions Games came to a close a gap was left in the market. The mantle was picked up by Tilted Mill with their attempt to continue but also transform the series with Caesar 4, to mixed reception, and whenever a series stumbles competitors rise up to claim the crown. CivCity: Rome was an amalgamation of Stronghold and Civilization, which was unique but also had its problems. Flanking from another side was Haemimont Games with a series of their own. Glory of the Roman Empire, Imperium Romanum, and finally Grand Ages: Rome all in quick succession. Many consider Grand Ages: Rome to be at least the best 3D Roman city-builder and today I will come to see for myself as I begin to conquer this alternative take on an old favourite.

#Nostalgiasm​ is a series about gaming #Nostalgia​ and nostalgic gaming where I jump back to a game from the 'Nostalgic Period of Gaming', 1995-2006, and either relive my old memories or experience something I missed out on. I play through the initial gameplay for about 1 hour plus to see if I still enjoy the game. See the whole playlist here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLYVqUDxY6COhuiyQxA3oL9Z9vDabqFzGl
