So I have not played Nebuchadnezzar. But I am a big fan of the old impressions games and have been looking for something similar. I checked out the #Laysara demo recently and pretty quickly decided it was the evolution of those games that I wanted. It had similar road proximity rules, but they were better visualized and managed. Building + managing production chains was improved too. I would check out the demo when you get a chance.

(It's not out yet, though.)

All I could think about while playing the #Laysara Demo at Steam Next Fest, is that I am obviously now beekeeping-age.

I was really impressed by the demo for the #CityBuilder #Laysara. It had all the depth I remember from the classic #Caesar3, but with way less friction. It's really easy to see when buildings are within the required ranges, production chains are easy to understand, and routing resources is simple and clean. The idea of building on separate cliff faces also reduces cognitive load since they're mostly independent.
