VISIT THE WEBSITE




It's the year 78 B.C and Sulla, one of the most dangerous and powerful men Rome has ever seen, has died in his country manor. For some,
Sulla's reign brought wealth and prosperity to their lives, to many more it brought death, humiliation and exile. One such exile, by the name of Gaius Julius Caesar, had been living in a lifestyle not equal to his birth but now, with Sulla dead and his faction divided, Caesar can return to home and build his political career. The time has come for a new Rome to emerge, and Caesar is determined to be the one who makes it happen.

You take control of Julius Caesar in his quest to establish a name for himself in political Rome. You must use whatever resources are available to you in order to climb the senatorial ladder and become dictator for life, whether that be by subtle coercion or brute force is up to you. Form alliances with other factions, hire assassins to kill off your opposition, launch electoral campaigns and much more as you progress through 20 years of toil to reach your goal.

    newb27 Very, very nice. I don't download maps very much, but I just couldn't resist this one. You're welcome to use my Assassin if you wish, or is it to unRomany? :D Definitely one to be downloaded.

    Playability: 5
    Even though this is only the demo, the playability is soo enjoyable! The way you can task your slaves is really cool and the house is easy to navigate through. And your characters is easily defined from the rest.

    Balance: 5
    Although there was no fighting in the DEMO, thing such as cinematics and gameplay, were very well balanced. You didn't alwats use cinematics for tutorials and the like, but when you did use cinematics, they were very well done with smooth camera tracks.

    Creativity: 5
    One of the most creative scenarios I've played in a long time. The background music fitted perfecty with the scenario and how you could task your slaves to clean was so cool. I loved how you followed the governer around the house, when you're on the tour. I can see this scenario is going to be incredible.

    Map Design: 5
    This, is what really put me in awe. Your eyecandy is amazing! The house is so well constructed, and I love your little miscellaneous details like the torches in ruined column, making it look like a differant knid of torch and the food on the table, the beds, the pool, the prison, I could go on and on.

    Story/Instructions: 5
    The story is well thought out and keeps you in suspense for more. From the demo, you can tell the story wil be very interesting, hinting future heirs and political disagreements.

    Additional Comments:
    This demo, is amazing, everyone should download and play it (or wait for the full version) it is worth every second of the time that it takes to install all the mods. Well done Anno, its really good.

    @ newb27: I'll have a look at your assassin mod and make a decision. Thanks for the offer :)

    @ Banoffee: Thank's so much for the review, i've never received a perfect 5 before. Was there really nothing to improve on?

    Banoffee, that review is a little on the short side. Please lengthen the comments if you wish to keep it.
    Banoffee Is that better?
