Roads of Rome, Adelanto and Northern Tales are my absolute favourite games of all time. I play at the hard or expert level and frankly, I still have 2 levels of Aztec 4 to finish. Where Aztec was a combined RoR & Adelanto, this combo of Northern Tales & RoR is not as successful in my opinion. The graphics and play aren't as detailed, it's more like a million other time mgmt games out there. RoR has crisp graphics and challenging play, and moreso in New Generation versions and Aztec 4. I usually start at normal level but with Portals, I started at Hard and handily finish every level in the green timer. I'm not THAT good a player - the game is far easier than the previous games in the series. The hidden objects are way too easy to find, too. Wish they would fix the issues with Mac version, too. I can't get games to work properly on my new iMac so I've been playing on my old iMac. However, Portals is too new and freezes on it because I can no longer upgrade my old Mac. All that said, I still love everything in the RoR line, and this one may be too easy but if I want more of a challenge, I can always try to finish Aztec 4!
I recommend this game!
Rome continues to flourish, but a hidden threat is looming on the horizon in the latest Roads of Rome adventure!

I love the entire RofR and Adelanto/Aztec Skull series and wish there were more. I was really disappointed at not being able to finish New Gen 1 because of a glitch that still hasn't been fixed but what happened to New Gen II??? I hate how the mac versions are delayed. I love the graphics, the game play, the caches and the challenge of the series but this game seems to be way more challenging than the previous versions. Either that or my brain has slowed down. I've had to reinstall it a few times, too. It affects my enjoyment of the game but it's still a fantastic game!
I recommend this game!
