The history of the Roman Empire details a very long and complicated trial of events. You now have the chance to be a part of that story with Rise of Rome, a strategic city management game. You will be in charge of running your own roman city while maintaining an army. Make your mark in the story of Rome now with our Rise of Rome cheats, tips and tricks strategy guide!
Check your city queue to see what can be worked on!
If you tap the button with the hammer on it at the top left, you can check your available activities. This will list if you have free collections to gather for the day, if you have any heroes currently training, if your enhancement cooldown is ready, and if you have any buildings currently in construction. To ensure maximum efficiency, you should always make sure that your working on all of these categories. Constructions lines free? Why not upgrade some buildings! No one is training? Upgrade your heroes! This is important because everything in this game is time based so you want to make sure you can do all you can do.
Upgrade your private houses for higher collection taxes!
Private houses are where you civilian citizens live. The higher level they are, the more citizens will be able to move in and revenue will increase, meaning higher collections! Keep these upgrades to ensure you have a steady supply of copper.
Keep your heroes trained and tough!
When you start out, you’ll have two heroes to work with: the one you choose in the beginning, and the one you get during the tutorial. If you go into the Military screen, you can train your heroes. How this works is you set an allotted time and that hero will gain experience points as time passes and you do actions. You can enhance the rate at which they gain experience by using gold, or using an EXP/gold boost item. You get a couple EXP boosters from the tutorial quests, so feel free to use them if you want. You also have the option to “cultivate” your heroes, and that means giving them small bonuses to their stats. When you tap the Adjust Stats button, you see + numbers appear next to their base stats. Random amounts will be applied; if they’re positive, they’ll be green, red for negative. You can postpone or confirm these changes if you want, but remember that every time you roll for bonuses you use up 16 contributions, a currency you earn from winning war battles. You can also opt to use the higher level version, which uses gold instead, but grants higher bonuses.
Level your blacksmith to enhance your gear!
All equippable gear can be enhanced. Enhanced armor increases defense and weapons attack, and both give more troops. In order to enhance your gear, you must first upgrade your blacksmith to the appropriate level. Your blacksmith’s current level represents the level your gear can be upgraded to. Gear is the only other way of powering up your heroes aside from training and cultivating, so it’s important to keep their gear updated!
Complete the quests for tons of copper!
The quests, and I mean the story related quests, provide a huge amount of copper when you complete them. I’m talking around in the 5000’s range from doing mundane things like upgrading the first armor piece you get to level 2. It goes without saying, do these quests! Before you know it you’ll be drowning in copper without having anything to spend it on. It also helps that a lot of the upgrading and building costs are very low, usually below three digits.
Finish the areas and defeat the main boss in order to recruit them!
When you progress through a warzone, you’ll eventually make it to the enemy leader at the end. For the first area, you’ll fight Ramses the 2nd. Once you defeat him, he will be automatically recruited into your party. So far, from my own experience, this seems to be the only way to obtain new heroes, so be sure to train him and equip him just like your other two heroes!
That’s about the jist of things. Just keep all your buildings upgraded, equip your heroes with the strongest equipment possible, and you should be able to defeat all the armies that stand in your way! If you have any questions or suggestions, leave a comment below. Have fun!
