Review:

The first thing that I noticed about this game was that it took a very long time to load. After I waited for the online game to be ready, I clicked the link and it still had a loading bar that I had to wait about 2 minutes to load. At first I thought that after all that the game was unplayable, because the game box was white. But as soon as I clicked it, it appeared and I was finally able to play the game.

The opening screen is very cool, with a rustic "Roman" look. I like how, even in the online game, you can create different players. The graphics are pretty decent too. They kind of remind of me of "Age of Empires".

The game itself has a very "Age of Empires" feeling to it as well. After building a section of road, I had to go chop down a tree to continue. I liked how quickly the character moved as well, and how clear the instructions are.

The whole point of the game is to build a road to Rome. It seems simple enough, but is strangely addictive.

The only thing that I would say I do not like about the game is the ads they have between every level. They are quite long and distracting.

Conclusion:

It's a really good game.
