Rome wasn't built in a day, so don't expect to go from a lowly peasant to emperor of the greatest kingdom in the world with a single click of the mouse. Instead, you're going to have to pour your blood, sweat and tears into constructing the famous city one building at a time, just like the rulers who inscribed their names into history!

Cradle of Rome is a match-three game with a clever twist: as you swap wood and gold, you acquire the resources you need to build classic Roman structures between levels. Use your materials sensibly, and you'll go from putting up a humble sawmill to erecting Mount Olympus itself. Eight bonuses are on hand to help, including Hammers that can break locked tiles and an Hourglass that gives you more time to complete the current level. You're even awarded extra workers when you perform spectacular feats, such as creating your first match-five. So grab your hammer and start swinging! Riches and glory are at hand.
