Pompeii: The Legacy enters Early Access on September 23 — demo live now

Set two decades after the eruption of Vesuvius, Pompeii: The Legacy puts you in charge of rebuilding a city and a lineage. You’ll balance housing, trade, research, law, and politics while steering a Roman family across generations. A public demo is available today, and Pompeii: The Legacy Early Access launches this month.

What’s in the current build

  • Robust city planning (roads, aqueducts, public buildings) tied to resources and population needs.
  • Systems for trade, research (Technology & Philosophy), and family/imperial bonuses.

Why it matters

As a solo project from Siscia Games, community feedback actively shapes balance, features, and priorities throughout Early Access. If you tried the March playtest, you’ll notice improved pacing, construction speed, and expanded economic depth.
