Great game!

Worth the money!

Make more!

Love the game! Make more like citizens of Spain, France, etc. would like to see th world develop more. More discoveries or invading by other countries

New update broke game

I love this game and I really want to try the new features but every time I try to go to settings to restart the game it either crashes or freezes.

Kills of Paterfamilas all the time when family gets rich

The game is fun but it seems to have a mechanic that when the family gets very rich the paterfamilias is always killed off at a young age. I don’t remember this mechanic in earlier versions but it takes away the fun of dominating Roman politics.

Horribly Unbalanced Pricy Garbage

Wow what a fun and cool thing to be stuck in perpetual debt because it takes over 4 years to apprentice at the cheapest job with 20 adaptability/insight. What a fun and cool thing that none of the people you marry start with jobs, but cost twice as much as you do each month. What a fun and cool thing that you pay 10 real life dollars for an inescapable debt spiral because you have to pay hundreds in game just to do unskilled labor despite clearly being able to perform it just fine as a debt slave. The devs should wake up every day feeling horrible for who they are, honestly.

Response from developer

Really sorry for the diificult experience. If you're up for giving it another go, we would recommend either trying out the Easy/Sandbox modes with a new save, or better still, enabling mods via the button in the Settings screen and giving yourself a bit of extra cash when you most need it, to tide you over. It should get easier and more fun over time as you get used to the game's ebb and flow. And the upcoming release will rebalance things a bit in this area as well. Please feel free to write to us via email at rome@thestartupengine.net or on the Discord (https://discord.gg/ZVkxjC5) and we'll help you out. Thank you for your patronage!

Amazing game

Have plugged so many hours into this game, so so much fun. Developers constantly making updates, previously left a review mentioning a saving issue and instantly get feedback and fixed in a later update.

Response from developer

This is now fixed as of v1.5.2, with a new save system, & support for multiple and manual saves. Thank you for your patronage and sorry for the inconvenience!

Absolutely love the game, one small thing

Think something has gone wrong recently with “Horsemaster” status? It looks like the optimal investment when achieved with 2X+, but keeps coming out negative if you sell and invest in horses over other things. Anyways, really do love the game and all of the continued work!

Amazing

Such an amazing idea and game!! We have a ton of freedom!! The only things that I would point out, Is I would like to form my own armies under my family’s name, do more interactions with my characters, like sleep with other demon have multiple wives, go to war against other family’s for power, throne struggles, addd some fun into it.

Needs update

Love the app but after the latest update it keeps crashing and most recently just lost my 100+ generation run 🙃 too mad to keep playing. Might come back after it’s fixed.

Cool

Great game: would be five stars, if it had a few more random events, and perhaps some lasting personal vendettas against other families. Edited: livestock should breed more often; children’s education button doesn’t appear after you get the notification all the time; not receiving option to try for an election higher than military tribune, despite having 2+ offices

Screen keeps going black during late game

BRO CAN YALL FIX THE LATE GAME ISSUE WHERE THE SCREEN GOES BLACK LIKE EVERY TWO OR THREE MONTHS IVE SEEN OTHER PLAYERS TRYING TO COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS TOO JUST FIX IT

Citizen of Rome

I like the game but I feel it’s not a 5 star only because we don’t get real custom and get to really make our selves, like we should be able to make our stats really high and our looks better and there be some where we can have a more fun sports career and war side of things if we pick that or get picked for it

Fantastic little game about your own Roman Dynasty

A few reviews have pointed out bugs, but these bugs have been fixed. There was a bug I experienced a while ago; which I complained about on the subreddit for this game, and the developer made sure to fix my issue by the next update. It does seem like the game has been abandoned now; but it is definitely in a complete state and you will find a great enjoyment from this if you are a big romanophile like myself. I haven't run into a bug during my last play through.

I eventually became consul after a lot of trial and error :)

Good game but…

I used to really love this game. I spent hours playing it and getting my families to the highest rankings. I like the new updates but unfortunately they have made things very buggy. You can hardly get through a full year now without your entire screen flashing white and resetting back to the last month. It’s not major but it is annoying enough that I just can’t play it like I used to anymore.

the game is addicting, but can get repetitive

I love playing this game, I think they could put some more scenarios into the game to change things up and put more lore in there and make it able to travel to different areas to do things. There's a lot of potential.

Meh. Mediocre at best.

For whatever reason, the game doesn’t fit on a mobile screen. Icons are too large, text boxes don’t stretch nicely…. It’s very ugly.
And as for gameplay, I maybe had some fun with my first family but that’s it. There’s literally nothing to do in the game but buy property, attend festivals, and hopefully not go broke. I’d save $10, it’s just not worth that kind of price. Maybe if they added literally anything else to the game, but it’s just pressing buttons and hope you don’t go into debt and die.

Glitch

Stopped gaining status after came back from war for some reason

The lost sister lives!

My very first character had a son and a daughter. Even though the son was my heir, I favored his sister. I even educated her instead of her brother. Unfortunately when my first character died in battle, the heir took over and the sister disappeared from my family view, I couldn’t find her and got very sad. She had just started her apprenticeship! I considered quitting the game but I was having fun so I didn’t. Two generations later, I finally played around and checked my first character’s family tree and there she was! She was long dead but in her long life she managed to get married, find a good job and had living two sons with their own families. I was really happy because I thought she had just disappeared into the void.

If you enjoy character building you’ll like this game but be careful because if you’re anything like me you might get really attached.
