I loved this game so much I think I still have the CD and the instruction book. I enjoyed the time spent building my cities and doing Ceasar's bidding, while fending off hordes of Huns and trading with land and sea merchants.
I still love the graphics and enjoy following my subjects around as they conduct their business; going to market or patrolling the streets, or going to the barracks to defend the province. I'm so glad GOG brought this game back. I look forward to more city building adventure.
Its too bad Ceasar 4 wasn't nearly as good.
One drawback though; as a Christian I don't like having to please the gods and throw them festivals, but in the original you could turn that feature off I think.
