Astra Logical to Publish Classic City Builder Nebuchadnezzar

Nepos Games joins forces with Astra to bring renewed attention to the Mesopotamian city builder

April 9, 2025 - Los Angeles, CA - Systems and strategy game publisher Astra Logical is proud to announce a new partnership with Nepos Games for their classic isometric city builder Nebuchadnezzar (and very excellent DLC, The Adventures of Sargon).

Nebuchadnezzar invites players to build and manage sprawling cities in ancient Mesopotamia, complete with detailed production chains, benevolent deities, and fully customizable monuments.

With a richly researched historical campaign and deep city-building mechanics, Nebuchadnezzar has steadily gained a loyal fanbase—and now, with Astra Logical’s support, the game is poised to reach even greater heights.


"Nebuchadnezzar has been out for a while now, but we still believe it has untapped potential," said Josef Hájíček and Luděk Hroch, co-founders of Nepos Games. "We're game developers, not marketers. Astra Logical stood out from every other publisher we talked to, and our collaboration so far only reinforces the feeling that we made the right choice."

Nebuchadnezzar was initially released in 2021, sure, but the game has received consistent updates over many years and has been lauded by several fantastic creators in the systems and strategy gaming space including GamerZakh, Nookrium, KatherineofSky, Raptor, Orbital Potato, PartyElite, and many more.

The partnership marks a renewed push for the game, including expanded marketing efforts and refreshed assets. With a strong focus on long-tail strategy titles, Astra Logical aims to bring fresh attention to a game that continues to resonate with fans of the genre.

"City builders like this are timeless,” said Heather Jackson, Managing Director at Astra Logical. “Nebuchadnezzar captures the heart of the genre while offering something distinctly its own. It deserves a place on every strategy fan’s radar."

Nebuchadnezzar is available on Steam. For more information, please check out the media kit at https://astralogical.org/game-nebuchadnezzar or go attempt to remember the spelling on your own.
