What players say
Really great game have been playing since I was young and never got bored, I wish they added more new maps!
I remember when this game came out all the way back when I was in primary school, all the way back, before the Eastern part of the Empire separated it self and made it self into Byzantine empire. So since today running your games off the physical media is almost impossible because of the 32 to 64 bit systems I was happy to find this title and replay it. Good news even doughnut like me can get 100% so you should be...
Having grew up on this game as a kid on my old XP laptop, countless hours played at the weekends! Still love the game and glad it was remastered.
