Nova Roma looks to bring to life the Pax Romana period (the peaceful bit where they did a load of, y’know, city building) of the Roman Empire, complete with the culture, politics, and, importantly, the architecture of the era.
The Nova Roma trailer revealed at the PC Gaming Show touts the colorful forums and colosseums we’ll be building, as well as a few interesting mechanics that should spice up gameplay. For example, water looks to play an integral role in the development of your cities, as we see flood waters from a burst dam devastating a built-up settlement, followed by an aqueduct being built to ferry water into a small district to feed into a fountain.
