Glory of the Roman Empire is an empire-building simulation set
during the height of the glorious Roman Empire. In the game, the
player assumes the roles of city planner, governor and military
leader. Successful players will need planning skills, economic
savvy and -- should those fail -- military might. Glory of the
Roman Empire will challenge gamers to grow a small village into
a thriving community through trade with neighbors, while also
expanding and defending its borders through more militaristic
means. Players will need to focus on the physical and emotional
health of the citizenry, as villagers age and mature under strong
leadership, contributing to the development of more advanced societies and larger cities.
Features of Glory of the Roman Empire include:
- More than 50 unique citizen professions
- Dozens of historically inspired structures and environments rendered in full detail in a 3D
world

- A non-linear campaign with over 30 missions in 11 historical towns throughout ancient
Europe
- Citizens who become wiser as they age, requiring the player to maintain an appropriate
balance of young and old citizens to ensure knowledge is passed on through the
generations
