ROADS OF ROME WALKTHROUGH
Hints
General Strategy
1. A good general build strategy is to do the following:
2. Upgrade the camp to level 2.
3. Build the following first if you can get to them. Sawmill and farm.
4. Usually build the mine next because you can't clear obstructions without the mine.
5. Build the quarry.
6. Next if you have storehouses, you should build those even if you have to work to get to them. These add 1 resource to each load brought in, including berries, trees, gold piles, and stone piles.
7. Upgrade the storehouse if you have an upgrade available.
8. Then start upgrading your buildings. Most of the time you don't need to upgrade the sawmill.
9. Consider upgrading your camp before upgrading other buildings because of the worker plus speed benefit.
10. Don't start building the road until you know you have enough food to remove the obstacles to all of the production buildings including the storehouse.
In addition:
1. Try to keep your workers moving as much as possible.
2. Always pick the berries if your worker is not doing anything else.
3. Prioritize picking berries on all levels except the snowy ones because they regenerate. Snow levels don't regenerate their berry bushes.
4. Pick up resources at the building quickly because they don't start producing again until the resources are picked up.
5. The further apart things are, the more you need a higher level camp. Seriously consider upgrading your camp to at least level 3 before upgrading other buildings unless you are seriously short of a particular resource.
6. Don't feel bad about chopping down trees. We're Romans; we're not conservationists. Seriously you will need a lot of wood to get things going quickly.
7. Don't feel bad about using up your food to chop down trees to get your buildings producing quickly. Just keep an eye on whether you have obstructions blocking your buildings that you need the food for.
8. If you aren't successful the first time, switch things up a bit. Notice what you were running short of and prioritize that the next time. Seriously consider upgrading your warehouse sooner than you might think it needs to be done.
9. Don't start building your road until you know you have enough food to get through the rocks blocking the way to the storehouse.
Gameplay Information
Episodes and levels: Level numbering is a bit confusing. On the map, it gives you episodes and levels. On the introduction page, it gives you level numbers for the whole game. So episode 1 level 5 is actually level 5. Each episode, 4 in all, is in a different terrain. While buildings, roads, bridges, and resources do not cost anymore in later levels, all the obstacles cost increasingly more. Also berry bushes regenerate slower in later levels.
Timer: Clicking anywhere on the screen start starts the timer. You cannot check costs until the timer has started, so just click, check things out, and then restart your level after you have decided your plan of attack. If you finish before the little line on the left, you will receive an expert rank.
Workers: With each level you start with 1 worker. Each time you upgrade the camp you get an additional worker and all of them move and work more quickly. So sometimes even if you don't have enough for more workers to do, you will want to upgrade just to have them move faster.
One worker can go down the road to remove the next obstruction and build the next bridge before the road is built.
A free worker needs to build and upgrade all buildings including the camp.
Don't let the man working at the building fool you; you can't control him.
Buildings: Every level starts with a level 1 camp (1 worker) and that is all. Look around to see what buildings are available before you get started. Every now and then a level will not provide you with a resource building (such as food) but that means there should be enough to pick up on that level. See below for each building type.
Production times: Production buildings produce their product every 15 seconds for level 1 buildings. Production does not restart until you pick up the product. Each time you upgrade the building the production time increases. However it is still more efficient to upgrade as each upgrade does get you more product per second of recycle time. However, most of the walkthrough have you stop upgrading at Level 1 until the storehouse or other more important things are built.
Circles: When you hover the cursor, you will also see a circle around that area.
Green--you are able to perform that action right away. B
Blue--you have enough resources, but you need to wait until a worker comes back to camp.
Yellow--you almost have enough resources
Red--the area is not within your reach because of obstacles
White--a worker is on the way to build it
Other signs are always seen whether or not you are hovering or clicking.
Uncolored plus and arrow near a building mean there is a building or upgrade available but you do not have the resource or have an obstruction in the way. Green plus and arrow means you have the resources but not that you have a worker available. It also means that you can actually get to that building
Earthquakes will know buildings down. An uncolored gear means a building needs to be repaired. A purple gear means you have the resources to do so. Fix them fast as you aren't producing when they are needing repair.
On the road you will a colored light for the next available section. Red light and exclamation point--The resources to build are not available.
Blue light--The resources are available but a worker is not.
Green light and arrow--You have the resources and the worker
Green light and unlit light--A worker is on the way to build the first section.
Green check mark--Whenever you have a worker on the way to either build, remove an obstacle, or pick up a resource there will be a tiny green check mark next to it. The only time you won't see one is on the road.
When you hover the cursor over an item, you will get a message about what it is, what it costs, what it gives, and the insufficient resources (in red). In addition for buildings, you will the level number you currently have, the upgrade cost and the upgrade income. You can get a message with no mention of insufficient resources even if you can't build it yet because you can't get to it yet.

Level 3--costs 12 wood, 2 gold—add 3 to each load brought in
Boathouse(introduced on level 16)--costs 10 wood and allows 1 worker at a time to get a specific area. When you click on a building over there, you may have enough resources to do something but if a worker is en route or over there, the building or item will show up with a red circle. You can send a second worker as soon as you get to shore.
Balloon tower(introduced on level 26)--costs 10 wood and it works exactly the same as a boat.
Forts--cost lots of gold and stone. Many times you will finish up everything else before you have enough resources to build this. Do not build the fort (if you are lucky enough to have the resources early) until you are finishing up everything else.
Roads: There will only be one road to be built. You will need to go off road many times to get to your buildings or goals. When you are off road you will still need to remove obstacles.
Road, wooden--1 food, 2 wood
Road, stone on earth(episode 1)--1 food, 2 stone

Speedy boots--workers speed up
Clock--time stops
Magic sack--add an extra resource to what is brought in
Hammer-work faster
Obstacles--These will block your forward progress, both for road building and getting to other area. There are a few times in the later levels where you will be able to scoot around some obstacles to get further down the road. The walkthrough mentions the 2 times it is imperative to ignore something so as to finish the level quickly.
Fallen tree--3 food, 2 stone, gives 4 wood (this is the only obstacle that gives you a resource when you remove it)
Bridge, wood--5 wood
Bridge, stone--3 wood, 4 stone
Heaps of stone and snowdrifts--vary in price, but always cost food and gold to clear. Overall prices increase on each level, up to 9 food and 9 gold at the end of the game.
Swamps, cracks, and quick sand--vary in price, gold and food. Removing theses obstacles will allow you to work further down the road. You will still need to build the road over it if it is on the road. There are a few times where these areas will be almost imperceptible. You will wonder why another obstacle continues to have a red circle around it. The most obvious ones are noted on the walkthrough.
Goal items: All of the below cost varying amounts of gold and food. Each episode will cost more for each item. They are frequently in out of the way spots. Don't forget to get them. There's nothing worse than finishing the road and wondering why the level hasn't finished. Occasionally a crystal will be inside a cave. Always explore the caves.
Predators: Many levels have predators, wolves, bears, lions. Some levels have them in several locations. Your worker will not come out to work until you click on it to make it go away. Your worker will continue to work though. Interestingly if you see your workers all the sudden start moving faster, it might be because a predator is out and they are running home. Also a building that had a green circle will suddenly turn red. They also make their growling sounds to let you know they are there.
Sound volume: I usually turn off my sound so I can listen to something else when I am playing. With this game it is extremely useful to leave your sound on low. It will bing whenever a building produces. Your predator will make a growling noise. A new bonus popping up will be make another unique side. It is worth listening to the worker building noises and the pig grunting when you pick up food and some wheezy kind of sound on the boat (worker has asthma or squeaking oar locks?!)
Roads of Rome compared to My Kingdom for the Princess:
This game is very, very similar to My Kingdom. It definitely uses similar programming. Experts at My Kingdom will find this game somewhat easier but not enough to not play the game. Some of the differences are:
1. Each upgrade in the camp will not only provide another worker but increase their overall speed by a perceptible amount.
2. Your worker must actually go to a building to build or upgrade it.
3. You must pick up the resources as they are produced from a building.
4. You actually expend energy (food) to pick up resources laying around (trees, piles of rock and stone
