The Golden Heist

domus aurea. The Golden House.

The Roman emperor Nero built his crowning marvel, the greatest folly of his reign, on the strength of your father's genius. And then he cast him aside. It's time to get your own back. And, hopefully, a vast amount of gold.

Break into the Golden House during Nero's birthday festivities in this comedic semi-historical heist.
