Hello everybody.
I just bought this game and i think i will have a lot of fun. But i got a little problem. It's on the first mission of the second period (archaic, i think...). You have to get some beer for your housing to evolve to modest appartment i think... I use the Grumpus new housing but it doesn't work. I have 7 grain farms, they're working but my overseer tell me that i produce food only for 408 citizens (my pop is 800 something). Only 50% of my houses receive food. I tried to put three bazaars and there is no improvements... What is my problem, and how can i solve it. Thanks...

Caligula 75,
Welcome to the forum! As mentioned, food distribution does take a while to become established. One way that I use to overcome shortages is to completely fill my granary before placing markets and distributing food. Either that, or turn off buying until my granary is full. I also set one market at a time to buying, til I see that most of my housing serviced by that market has sufficient food stocks. This strategy has always worked extremely well for me.
