Dum vivimus, vivamus



<span class="bold">Caesar&trade; IV</span>, a pinnacle of city-building strategies set in ancient times, is now available, DRM-free on GOG.com.

Rome wasn't built in a day, you know, and neither were the Roman aqueducts which are still subjects of study and praise by many a scholar. The same is true for the majestic structures they left behind, which still stand proud all across Europe. Want to know how they managed to erect these marvels of the ancient world? Assume control of the economy, planning, building, and managment of Roman settlements in challenging scenarios set during the Kingdom, Republic, and Empire eras, and watch your humble village grow to become a sprawling ancient metropolis. Even back then, people were very concerned with public services, hygiene, spectacles, and overall quality of life, so it's up to you to balance the complex needs of your citizens with the realities of city management, if you want to be remembered more as a Marcus Aurelius and less as a Nero.



Plan, build, and sustain a Roman metropolis that could stand the test of time in <span class="bold">Caesar&trade; IV</span>, DRM-free on GOG.com.

Nice to see at least one classic game release this week although Caesar IV is absolutely not my cup of tea. :D

Smannesman: It might be the classic "Those who are about to die salute you" thingamajig.
The gladiators are doing the proper salute, "about to die" etc.

Astérix & Obélix are greeting Jules with something along the lines of "Hello there, old chap".

Which leads me to question why aren't there any Astérix and/or Lucky Luke games here.

The Astérix XXL trilogy is especially good, and the first game doesn't work on x64 systems, so it needs the GOG treatment.

I vaguely remember this not being as great as the previous city builders, but I certainly remember my computer not being able to run it properly so that may be why I have bad memories of it. How was it, compared to masterpieces like Zeus?

tinyE: For some reason I thought the first Caesar was here. Am I hallucinating?

omega64: You might be drunk if you're seeing 4 caesars.
So there is just #3 and #4?

Nice to see that Activision is definetly active again. I have pledged to myself to buy ALL games by the major publishers(EA, Ubisoft, Activision, Square Enix, Bethesda*, etc). So this is a no brainer purchase for me.

*The exception being the Fallout games I already owned.

On GOG, yes. No idea why the other two ain't here (maybe Activision doesn't own them).
Posted May 27, 2016
Yeah! :D

I hope Emperor ROTMK is in the near future too! Also, why not release the first two Caesar games?

EDIT: And of course more Activision classics in general, like others have said.
