Gladiate Navigate Negotiate
Rise From Centurion To Mighty Caesar
"Leaves Other Cinematic Adventures In The Dust."
Yesterday's cinematic adventures were long on awesome graphics but short on play. That's no longer good enough. ow there is a cinematic adventure that gives you both.
Split-second control of your legions. Set formations, choose tactics, and give orders to individual units in real time -- No two battles are ever the same!
Master the chariot. Race in the legendary Circus Maximus. If anyone tries to pass you, whip him or shatter his chariot.
Seduce the beautifulCleopatra and conquer Aegyptus. Can you win the "Jewel of the Nile," the most fabulous woman in history?
Sink unpredictable enemies. Shower his ship with arrows, board him, or ram and splinter his hull. But watch out -- he knows different tricks!
Plan your diplomacy. Invade, plunder, negotiate, and make alliances with nations of the known world. You can even change the difficulty level of any part of the game.
Can you survive? Fight gladiator battles in the famous Coliseum. Will it be "thumbs up" or "thumbs down" with your sward at the beast's throat?
