Meeting the requirements of the Caesar map was a devil of optimization and micromanagement. I wouldn't say that Banished is as difficult as the final Ceasar map, but perhaps one of the final maps before it. So maybe a Banished 2 could have a campaign? I did like the sense of progression and accomplishment when I finally finished the final map, which was very difficult. One of the key differences seems to be that Caesar actually had a campaign with several maps, each with a set of goals, whereas Banished is just a single randomly generated map. Thankfully, I don't seem to need to actually destroy buildings to recover, just shut them down. Managing emergencies seems to be very similar: Focus your people on tasks needed to stay alive, shut down everything that isn't strictly needed. I'm on my first playthrough of Banished, and it does seem to be pretty difficult as claimed - although I've gone through several years without losing all of my villagers. You have to manage the movement pf those resources as you struggle to grow your town (or in Caesar, your city) - and you can't grow it too fast, or you're left wanting for resources. You have a group of walkers that move resources from one area to another.
Some people compare it to SimCity, but it's much closer to Caesar. I personally have played Caesar III and Caesar IV. And it gets even more interesting if you've ever played Tilted Mill's Caesar or Children of the Nile games.
