Launched earlier this year, Nebuchadnezzar is a classic-style city-building game reminiscent of genre greats like Pharaoh and Caesar III all about creating a thriving Mesopotamian metropolis. Since then, we've seen one major update introduce a bunch of new mechanics, buildings, and other content - and now there's more. Update 1.2, the city builder's second major content drop, is live, bringing crime, and disease, and fire (oh my).
Developer Nepos Games has posted the full rundown of what's new with 1.2 on Steam, with the three new gameplay mechanics being a key part of the patch. From now, you'll need to hire firefighters to tackle fires that can erupt across your city - and presumably wreak some real devastation if left uncontrolled. Firefighters can prevent fires if you have the resources to hire them, but if not, "at least hope they can put out the fire before it spreads to the whole city", the devs say. Gulp.
Elsewhere in the world of disasters to avert, there's crime. As of 1.2 you'll have to think about setting up a city watch to fight crime in your city, or you might find your precious goods start vanishing in thief raids. Left unchecked, this can mean your people might revolt against you by rising up and forming riots.
