My favorite city building series visits Ancient China, and while it offers the same super addicting game-play as its predecessors, the whole thing is starting to feel pretty repetitive after that many reiterations and expansions.
I guess that’s also why this turned out to be the last (proper) game in the series (it’s still pretty awesome though).
Positive: | Negative: |
Hand-drawn 2D graphics aged surprisingly well | The formula is getting stale with the fourth installment |
Fantastically addicting city builder game-play | |
Challenging difficulty | |
Beating the map feels extremely rewarding | |
A somewhat interesting narrative based on Chinese History |
