Priority fixes

  1. [uniqueness_polish] Add a distinctive visual storytelling element such as a volcanic plume on the horizon or a dramatic foreground detail that sets Pompeii apart from generic Roman strategy capsules.
  2. [title_readability] Increase the size and weight of 'THE LEGACY' subtitle or integrate it into the main logo treatment so it remains legible at tiny size.
  3. [contrast_color] Darken or simplify the city midground to create stronger value separation between the rider silhouette and the background at small sizes.
  4. [composition] Reduce or reposition the right-edge tree so the mounted soldier reads as an unobstructed silhouette against the sky at tiny size.

Store copy priority fixes

  1. [feature_communication] Restructure the mechanical section into a bulleted or clearly delineated feature list: 'Build housing, temples, and aqueducts to meet citizens' needs. Research Technology and Philosophy to unlock new capabilities. Form family legacies that influence the city for generations.' This replaces vague jargon with tangible player actions.
  2. [uniqueness] Add one sentence clarifying what is mechanically distinct: 'Unlike other city builders, your family's bloodline and political standing persists across centuries, making every marriage alliance and commercial decision a generational investment.' This differentiates from competitors.
  3. [tone_match] Rewrite the Imperial Privileges paragraph to match the narrative voice: 'Earn the favor of emperors through careful diplomacy and military success, unlocking new technologies and exclusive trade opportunities that reshape the Empire itself.' This restores immersion.
