Never Second in Rome

Lore: good. Gameplay: Plus 54 advantage check, still fail. Progression: Extremely snow bally. (did not try iron man mode as of writing this) Graphics: Pixel. Overall I had a good time with this game over the weekend, i've yet to try the iron man mode of this game, which is only accessible after beating the game once, which I find kinda annoying especially when the campaign is long, and the possibility of ruining your character at the start of the campaign is pretty high which leads to restarting (slightly reduced by having your century reset during the campaign). The game is made by 1 person which is pretty cool he definitely passed all the INT checks IRL, Respect+.

I want to get into the game, the clunkyness of the english used is really taking me out of it. I'd recommend it to be proofread by someone w good grasp of the language.

game good

Just finished the game and I am happy to recommend it. I enjoyed the gameplay loop and story telling through history. Its a unique perspective of the events being told and the writing did a good job of balancing exposition and narrative . There were some minigames that were more annoying than fun but they were also quick to finish and didn't overstay their welcome. I'm not sure why the creator would stop people from playing iron man before completing a normal game because I feel like most people will probably only give it a play through once.

really engrossing!!

Be a historically correct officer under Julius Caesar in the Gallic War and the civil war, following Caesar's books faithfully. Tactical turn-based battles without the usual grid layout, and deliberately strategic training of your cohort in winter quarters make a career that could get you into the senate at Rome in the end. If you like any of this, by all means go for it because NSiR is a quality game from a dedicated developer.

It's a quaint little game where your stats and decisions matter. You take on the role of a Centurion, leader of 40-80 men within a cohort depending on how well you lead, and follow the trials and tribulations of Caesar as he makes his way from Gaul to the Ides of March. You must take on the challenges of training and commanding your men whilst also growing yourself, and be ready for the challenges that lie ahead. Even as a Centurion, there is oppertunity to advance in rank, and the better you do the more you are rewarded. This adds a bit of replayability. There is no voice acting, and a lot of reading, but it's well worth it especially for the price--if you don't mind that kind of thing.
