There's also Pharaoh but I'm sure you've heard about it since it's basically the same game with KANGZ coat of paint.

HAS ANYONE SEEN MY SPEAR?

>>15771986

I have, but I have played very little. It's one I need to get back to. I also need to play RCT2 a lot more.

>>15771991

Now you've done it. The whole thread is going to be "The spinning wheels are making me ill here." and how you should get married.

>>15772017

How much depth do these have or are they just clash of clans waiting games?

>>15772017

This is shitty mobile crap isn't it? Come to think of it are there any fantasy type games for city builders like z+p?

>>15772017

Anything that is as good as Z+P that is not made to run on cancer emitting devices?

>>15772056

Not sure if its "as good" but there is this one

So far the spartan campaign is going well, but I had a hard time with the initial mission setting up. I had my heart set on the top right corner of the map, and kept screwing up my initial placement. Either I fucked up the layout, or didn't have enough people. Now it's a pretty good town, and I am on the first colony mission. Almost finished.

Why of all things would someone make a city builder about ELVES?

Also I liked Emperor more. The people at the hemp farm are funny but at least they give me a good price.

> and everyone left.

uh you don't send ALL of your militia, that would make every worker fight it, including your workers

just send enough so that your unemployment goes down to 0, doesn't matter how many people are fighting the monsters, they will still die after a few minutes

might want to also build and man some towers for extra defense

a tower killbox with militia in it can generally stop any army, monsters too

>>15776028

Tell me of these tower kill boxes you speak of. I haven't experimented with towers at all yet. Since enemies tend to path around anything they can while on their way to your palace can't you just build a long line of towers like some tower defense game?

>>15776089

>more cost effective

And you can get it almost immediately upon making a city. Where as getting armor, wine, and horses takes time.

>>15776089

Ah, I just generally made up a central citadel with a palace in it. That way enemies would generally leave my manufacturing districts alone and head for that central citadel.

Where zues endgame are colonies and military, the endgame for Pharoah are the pyramids and temples you make.

Military creation is easier to get into so late game is protecting yourself while you work on your wonders.

Keeping houses happy is a bit harder too.

I never finished Pharaoh + Cleopatra, even though I liked it better than my experience with Caesar III as a kid. I don't think I can remember why I didn't like Zeus + Poseidon, or if I even played it. I didn't like Emperor. I couldn't even finish the tutorial missions because I lost so much favor with my trade partners that they wouldn't trade with me and eventually attacked, and I couldn't figure out a way out of the mess.

Anons I need some building advice for my culture stuff. I can't believe it's taken me this long to notice, but it seems that drama school actors pass through all road blocks on their way to a theater, this also goes for stadium contestants. I know that theaters, and colleges so long as they have access to a road can provide a cultural bonus to as many areas as they have access to, but I am making drama schools+theaters for almost every area including my elite housing? Am I really fucking up here? What buildings do you always have in your elite housing areas?

>>15780817

Make a square with the 4 buildings at the corners, when they walk they walk in a loop.

>>15781080

No I mean do I need to have a drama school, and a gymnasium for every area? Since my elite houses have a theater, and a stadium if the contestants, actors will walk from the drama schools/colleges/gyms in my regular housing areas?
