Publisher's description
From Vivendi Universal Games :Take on the role of an aspiring provincial governor within Caesar's empire as you build and manage an ancient Roman city and its province. As governor, you lay out each city, road by road, building by building, making sure your citizens have all they need to remain healthy, happy and safe from barbarian threats. Everyone wants to live a convenient distance to shops and entertainment but nobody wants to live too close to the noisy and dirty stuff! Your goal is to manage this delicate balance and grow your city from a simple village to a cosmopolitan metropolis. Do your job well, and you will rise among the political ranks of the empire, and become Caesar!
The Caesar IV demo comes complete with one full scenario and tutorial content.

Version: Caesar IV demo
Pros: Caesar is an original city builder series.You have to manage plebs,equites and patricians giving them all they want while fullfill Rome requests ,defeat enemy armies and not go out of money.
Cons: It's too much similar to Caesar III,they didn't added nothing new.If you were familiar with it you'll soon finish this.

Version: Caesar IV demo
Pros: Good Graphics
Cons: Yes it does have good grahics it says you only need 64mb video memory I have a 128 Nvidia 768MB RAM P4 2.66ghz and it ran like crap on my computer. No save option in this demo. That's about all I know.

Version: Caesar IV demo
"The game no longer ahead of the game"
Pros: The concept of city building that Caesar once introduced is still good: the new graphics are well done and surely an improvement, the development of roads and placing of buildings is way better then caesar III, giving more options of making a beautiful city, which I liked.
Cons: ... but that is about all the improvement there is: just the graphics. Gameplay is very much the same: there were a few buildings added, but that's about it. The graphics make the game, at least this demo, difficult to run. On my computer, which has a 256 MB videocard and 1 gig of Ram, it got stuck. Only when I downgraded the graphics to best performance, did it run somewhat normally, to get stuck once again as the city grew big. This is a surprise, because Children of the Nile, a city builder that is much heavier on graphics then this game, runs fine on my computer.
The aim of a free demo is to convince people to buy the real thing, but if the demo runs as ****** as this one, I am for sure not buying the game. Which is a shame, because even though gameplay wasn't improved I was itching to build a few roman empires again. Looks like Ceasar IV missed a good chance. If they had upgraded the gameplay and concentrated less on bothersome graphics that slow the computer down it would have been a great and worthy follow up of Ceasar III. Alas, that was not to be.
