Hehe, you tried almost every possible pronunciation bar the right one bless you. Plebian = Pleh-bee-un. It's where we get the word pleb that some still use.
This reminds me of an Egyptian game I played waaaaay back in the 1990s. Was it called "The Egyptians"? It worked in a similar way - you had to balance needs with various buildings and they needed to be placed carefully to be most effective. It had loads of campaigns, each more challenging than the last, ending in building massive pyramids, which took forever etc. I spent may happy hours playing that game.
@@anthonyr.1568 It was a long time ago, but I think I remember Pharaoh coming out. I think the game I played might have been a predecessor to Pharaoh. There has been so many games across the year, lol. They're all melding in together. 🤣
This has slight reminiscences of The Settlers, to me. Although, that had convenient carriers that took goods from one section of road to the next. Fantastic game, though.
There is a real Roman Road that is near where I grew up and much of it is still in use today. It is called Stane Street (stane = stone) and goes 57 miles from Chichester in West Sussex to London Bridge In a completely straight line. Except... where it curves a bit to cross the hills called the North Downs. It is never further than 6 miles from the route a completely straight road would take though

This was a massive flashback to my Ceasar III days 😎😎😎

Do you mean 'Pharaoh' maybe? I find this game has a lot in common with it, and of course with its 1990s Roman counterpart 'Caesar'.

The "shiny silver coin things" are called denarii...
Pengvs Geekelivs Cupboardivs! All hail to your cabbages, noble Pengvs!
Roman Firefighters the Vigiles were generally Freedmen who also acted as the Police Force.
Why do I hear the Caesar III music playing in my head for the whole video?
Hopefully the music in this game will be at least that good!

Isn't there a website where you type in the word and hit a speaker icon and the word is pronounced for you? Hmmm.
I had hoped there would be more involved in dealing with the gods, but maybe that's coming in the full version of the game.
have you ever played Caeser 3? such an awesome game
Not sure why they didn't name this Caesar III 20XX? Cus this is Caesar III
Copyright/trademark, fear of lawsuit, legal thingy.

I'm not sure you can save in the demo, it's quite an early version of the game. There's not even a menu screen!
