Become a Roman governor in the 117 AD in this simulation
Anno 117: Pax Romana, developed by Ubisoft Mainz for PC and console, is a simulation set in 117 AD, part of the award-winning Anno series. In this simulation-meets-strategy game, players must build and shape the Roman Empire, allowing them to manage complex economic systems, develop cities, and make strategic decisions.
With its city-building and real-time strategy mechanics, Anno 117: Pax Romana offers a lore-rich playthrough, exploring various themes, including history, politics, and economy. It features ultra-realistic visuals, such as intricately detailed environments and characters, and a captivating atmosphere that immerses users deeply in the world.
Build the Roman Empire
Like many games in the long-running Anno series, which focus on building and managing empires across different eras, Anno 117: Pax Romana allows players to create an empire from scratch. Examples from the series include Anno 1404 (set in the medieval period), Anno 2070 (futuristic), and Anno 1800 (during the Industrial Revolution). In this installment, however, the game centers on the time of the Roman Empire.
Step into the shoes of a Roman governor and choose from various strategic options, such as boosting economic growth, establishing dominance through totalitarianism, leading a revolution, or joining a diverse culture. Set out on a resource management-driven journey that tests your ability to lead a nation in trade, city-building, expansion, and diplomacy. Additionally, make sure to seize uncharted territories and make them flourish.
The game makes the perfect title for fans of the Anno series who have a passion for the Roman Empire and its history. However, it tends to overwhelm newbies or those who have never played an Anno game before due to its overly complicated mechanics. Furthermore, as more cities are built throughout the game, intensive micromanagement becomes necessary to manage their growth.
For Anno fans
Anno 117: Pax Romana offers an immersive and strategic experience for fans of the Anno series, particularly those fascinated by Roman history. The game's rich narrative, complex decision-making, and detailed world-building provide a unique challenge. However, its intricate mechanics and the need for micromanagement may overwhelm newcomers to the series. Despite this, its captivating atmosphere and historical depth make it a rewarding choice for dedicated strategy game enthusiasts.
