CivCity: Rome - Lots of potential, just mediocre.

Beautiful graphics, interesting environments, cool ideas.
The biggest problem I had with this game was the lack of room to build, as you have to upgrade homes from huts to giant mansions as they progress. Even with planning it would take a while.

2nd would be the AI, or lack of. Ive spent far too much time waiting for things to buildings to upgrade, with all the supplies closeby.

Finally, the game is just far too short. I spent most of my time at the 2nd point.

Overall I don't recommend it, interesting for a bit.. but overall just a letdown.
