You can make some really nice looking games using isometric tiles, Ceasar 3 comes to mind. Which looks much better then Ceasar 4 IMHO, which is 3d AFAIK. And game-play also feels better in C3.


I still play Transport Tycoon fairly often. The open version at https://www.openttd.org/ is my goto.

I've tried a lot of the newer city builders and the 3D just does not do it for me. I find it clunky and awkward.


Caesar 3 was a fantastic game.

Also: plebs are needed.


I played the f--- out of Ceasar 2 as a kid. That game was so good.


Same with Age of Empires 2 vs 4. Also Brigador for example of a recent game which makes excellent use of isometric visuals.
