I've played this game over 200 hours (not on steam i've also got a non drm version). This is one of the best strategy games i have ever played. It has is problems :AI only raides and not really attack you, AI armies builds are kinda strange and AI does some stupid things like not changing the home of a unit without one. But the scale, the managing of food/units/reserves etc. is extremly fun and satisfying. Zooming in and out feeling like a real commander, caputering slaves and let them carry food, fighting over flocks of sheep (to be honest that is cool :P) and the biggest plus is the campaign witch you can play on your own pace, you can follow the missions you wanted and in your own order. I just an all out great strategy game like I never seen before. It is a bit dated and part II is coming (Rome still in early acces). Just buy this game, have fun and wait for Rome to go out of early acces and have even more fun. The developpers are also great guys, listining to the community via there own forum and the steamhub, support indie devs and buy this hidden gem! I give this game a 9 out of 10.

A rich, unique grand strategy experience that manages to deliver a fair amount of tactics to boot! It's the only game, that I know of, that allows you to fight the Peloponnesian War (yay triremes!), so it's a must have for any Thucydides fans out there (you know who you are). The $20 price tag is fair considering how many hours of gameplay you can squeeze out of it; if you can manage to grab it on a sale so much the better. Overall I'm very impressed with it, especially considering it was made by four people...

This game is awesome. I love it honestly. The game covers a rare era in gaming, and it has very unique gameplay that makes this so awesome.

A brilliant combination of tactical and strategic decision making. I've never seen a game put such an intuitive and accessible logistics system into a game. Doing fast raids to burn farms is actually worthwhile and properly rewarded.

Rikitgt fläskig strategi. Innovativt och episkt. Von Clausewitz in i kärnan.
