For a solo developer, this marks the end of an intense development phase — but not the

end of the journey.

“It’s hard to believe how quickly these six months passed. But reaching full release

doesn’t mean development stops. This is my first solo project under Siscia Games, and I

plan to continue improving and supporting it for a long time.”

The full campaign is now complete, offering over 20 hours of gameplay, where players

rebuild Pompeii across generations while managing economy, trade, politics, and the

lives of citizens.

Key Improvements During Early Access

• Full campaign completion

• Panoramic camera

• New dynamic events and disasters (snow, storms, volcanic ash)

• Expanded fire system

• City festivals and arena games

• Trade improvements

• Aqueduct rework

• Building relocation

• Manual/auto worker assignment

• City walls and basic military presence

• New buildings and production chains

• Research and bonus systems expansion

• Improved UI (building preview, army panel)

• More domestic animals and ambient sounds

• Major engine and performance optimizations

Alongside gameplay systems, the game also received significant visual and

atmospheric upgrades, including weather effects, ambient sounds, and more detailed

city life. The game is also fully translated into 13 languages, a significant undertaking for

a solo-developed project of this scale.

• Combat mechanic

• Modding support (Steam Workshop)

• Controller support
