Great game, very engaging. My only gripe is that it ends. Hope the dev eventually works on a DLC. PS If you purchase this game and enjoy it, check out Never Second In Rome.

Character did so well I got put into Triarii, didn't get to fight in last battle because I was too important. Not sure whether to be flattered or angry. 11/10 best text adventure I've ever gotten my hands on.

Man, I feel bad for Felix and Porcius. They survived the first Siege of Carthage just to die to bandits. Alright, Marius, time to die for Rome! Let's see if you make it back. This game is genuinely fun. I keep dying, and it keeps being okay. Incremental progress done well. Literally the only addition I'd ask for the a name generator, but I can also just look up Roman names and do that. The points to reequip yourself after every death are great, as well. Honestly, fully recommend. For the sale price and shit, for full price. This is absolutely a good buy.

Chances are, you will die for Rome. Many times. However, each death grants you points to make your next legionary stronger. More opportunities to lay your life down for Rome. Soon you aren't just barely surviving each battle... you are a decorated officer. An apex predator to be unleashed by the legion against their foes. You will challenge the enemy army's leaders to duels and feed them your javelin face-first. And gods-willing, when enough men have died, you will retire. A living legend in triumphant return to Rome, to live out the rest of your days in peace. 10/10 would gladly spend another 100+ hours dying to the Agema chiliarch because no true son of Mars would ever refuse a challenge.
