I've been away from gaming for a long time, but I think maybe it's like what Hobbes said about ice cream: you don't know you don't like ice cream until you've tried every kind.

What ancient city builders OR civilization sims would you recommend? Because I hate cars and love history in equal measure.

Running on Linux Mint with Steam installed.

Edit: Nebuchadnezzar is the winner because it's a modern version of the older games y'all are recommending and because it's exactly those babylonian cities I was hankering for.

Thanks! I added a bunch of stuff to my wishlist.

Songs of Syx

Imagine rimworld crossed with sim city. Start with ten dudes, keep them happy, fed, healthy, and their friends will show up. And then more of their friends. And suddenly you have a city of 12,000 dudes and a complex chain of diplomacy and taxation keeping your stockpiles full.
