Nebuchadnezzar

Build, manage, and expand a thriving Mesopotamian city by overseeing agriculture, industry, and trade. Every decision shapes the economy and the daily life of citizens as you provide food, goods, and services. Different population classes, industries, and workforce types create a living metropolis with deep strategic depth and rewarding challenges for newcomers and veterans alike.

Campaign and history

The main campaign spans more than a dozen historically inspired missions, guiding you from the early colonization of Mesopotamia to the Persian conquest of Babylon in the 6th century BC. Each mission places you in a distinct era with unique political, economic, and technological realities. Will you worship Inanna to gain prestige from trade, or support Enlil to grow your populace more quickly? Your choices in the divine pantheon influence trade, growth, and how you shape your city’s destiny.

City design and monuments

Design and construct grand monuments using a robust in-game editor that gives you control over layout, color schemes, and intricate details. Recreate historical wonders or craft new landmarks to leave a lasting architectural legacy and reflect your city’s story.

Economy, growth, and management

Oversee agriculture, artisanship, industry, and trade networks. Manage production chains, marketplaces, and caravans to move goods where they’re needed. Ensure citizens have access to housing, public services, and religious or cultural buildings to maintain prosperity and stability.

Modding and localization

Nebuchadnezzar is built with extensive modding and localization support. Nearly every aspect of the game is moddable, allowing you to add new buildings, goods, production chains, maps, and missions. Localization support helps you enjoy the game in multiple languages, making your legacies accessible to a global community.

Accessible and rewarding

With approachable systems and deep strategic layers, Nebuchadnezzar offers a satisfying experience for players new to city builders and seasoned builders seeking rich historical context and creative expression through monuments and mods.
