Neither one of these modes (called Caesar’s Challenge and The Empire) physically pits you against human opposition. The game even has a couple of online modes.
Of course you’ll be able to download user made campaigns too. The game also includes a scenario creator and allows you to create custom campaigns. Once you’ve learned the ropes you can take on the Republic campaign and when you really fancy a real challenge (and have completed the Republic campaign) you can try the Empire campaign. The Kingdom campaign is recommended even if you have played Caesar III for years because Caesar IV does a few things differently.
There’s the learning Kingdom campaign which will take you through a series of scenarios that will introduce you to the game.
Whilst I would have settled for a graphical upgrade and the game having all the refinements that Zeus and Emperor had for Caesar IV, Tilted Mill have made the game much more advanced.
Caesar III then, turned me into a city building nut and I was very pleased indeed when Caesar IV was announced. In fact it still gets played from time to time along with the other titles in the City Building Series such as Pharaoh, Zeus and Emperor (as well as their expansions of course).
Naturally I bought the game and to this day I still regard it as one of the finest PC games I’ve ever played. I hadn’t played the earlier Caesar titles and hadn’t really known what to expect but I thought the demo was excellent. Two and a half hours later I had to pull myself away from the PC and it was hard work because the demo was so addictive. It was around 11pm I thought I’d have a quick look at the demo before heading off to bed. I had installed the demo on my PC from a magazine demo disk but for one reason or another I didn’t get around to playing it until a week later.
