what are the chances of a sequel to Cradle of Rome? I've never found a game as fast as fun...........

The sequel to Cradle of Rome is Cradle of Persia, which has been out for about a year now; Cradle of Persia is a match-3 game but doesn't work quite the same way that Cradle of Rome did--it's still a lot of fun, though!

CRADLE OF PERSIA

yes, I played that, too. But I thought some of the levels of Cradle of Rome were super challenging, and I thought it'd be cool if they made another one!

I just spotted this from the designers of Cradle of Rome (you will need to scroll down):

ROMANCE OF ROME

Based on the description, it sounds like it might be a hybrid of some kind, but I'll be trying this one out---it just might be similar to Cradle of Rome!
