Well crafted city builder, which takes you through the ages of one the most important parts of the world. Mesopotamia looks beautiful, but the gameplay itself can get both tricky and boring. [Issue#309]
This is quite decent town-building strategy in the old Mesopotamia, focusing on resource and product infrastructure.

Nebuchadnezzar tries to capture the feel of the iconic city builders of the 90's like Pharaoh. While it offers an interesting Mesopotamian setting and some new mechanics regarding space and supply management, it does not provide meaningful challenge and a production level that would make it as iconic. Hopefully, it will be enriched with content from the community in the future as it currently is pretty barebones.
Classically styled and rich in detail, Nebuchadnezzar's city-building fun is hindered by micromanagement and trading issues.
Nebuchadnezzar is not as great as Pharaoh, the legendary city builder in whose footsteps it follows. However, it’s an interesting game that will satisfy your desire to build ancient cities, even if it relies too much on burdensome micromanagement. [05/2021, p.40]
Nebuchadnezzar is a solid economic simulation game that lacks inspiration. Solely the choice of setting is remarkable.
I fear my childhood has prevented me from giving Nebuchadnezzar a fair chance. It was never going to meet my expectations because I was holding it up to a level of quality that few have been able to match in the past 20 years. This isn't a bad game; it just not one that you'll remember in a year, forget a decade. So instead of recommending this, I recommend you instead spend half as much and buy Pharoah instead.
Summary Nebuchadnezzar is a classic isometric city builder game inviting players to experience the mysterious history and culture of ancient Mesopotamia. In the campaign, players get to rule over influential historical cities filled with magnificent monuments.
