AGEOD Games, developer of the wargame classic “Birth of America” and the critically acclaimed “Napoleon’s Campaigns”, returns to the battlefield with a new game focused on the Roman Empire’s tumultuous history of generals and wannabe emperors marching on the capital to claim power for themselves.
“Alea Jacta Est” takes you from the first titanic clashes in the 1st century BC to the chaos following the assassination of Commodus in 193 AD in the first PC game to focus on the Roman Civil Wars. Five scenarios will challenge even the most ambitious and savvy desktop commander.
