The latest grand strategy game from the genre's current leading light, Paradox Interactive, puts you at the helm of one of the great powers of the late 4th century B.C. and asks you to conquer the world from western Europe to southern Asia. At the same...
Imperator: Rome has some rough edges and it's not quite up to par with the excellent games Paradox usually churns out, but at the same time, it is still a challenging and rewarding experience that's bound to keep you engaged for long...
All this to say: It has potential. Imperator: Rome attempts to wrangle Paradox's entire legacy into a single all-encompassing game. It hasn't got there, not yet, but I know it can get there—and probably will, given Paradox's track record. It's just a...
Let's just get this out of the way up front: Imperator:Rome is a good game, and you should go out and buy it. This will likely be the definitive game covering the era of the early Roman empire for some time to come.That being said, what exactly is good...
As Imperator grows in scale from its Clausewitz cousins, so too it grows in depth and ultimately in unwieldiness. But there's a grand strategy with aeons of play in it for...

What is it about the Roman empire that makes it so enduringly fascinating, when other historical empires eclipse it in so many ways? There have been bigger empires (British), older empires (Persian), and more ferocious empires (Mongol). Yet few people...
Mucho de lo que necesitamos saber sobre Imperator: Rome lo vamos a encontrar en su título. Roma, sin dudas, es el eje central del nuevo juego de Gran Estrategia de Paradox. Y la Ciudad Eterna cumple un rol central en la campaña que se nos propone en...
Klassischer kann Paraodx Interactive ein Spiel eigentlich nicht releasen. Es ist holprig, es hat Macken und es fehlen unendlich viele Features, die wir bereits aus Crusader Kings, Europa Univeraslis und all den anderen Spielen schon kennen. Keine Frage,...
Très complet et offrant pas mal de challenge à son lancement, Imperator Rome sera probablement le titre sur lequel je passerai le plus de temps en cette année 2019. Si le soft reçoit le même traitement qu'Europa Universalis IV ou Crusader Kings II, il...
