Computer Games(Romania) : Europa Universalis Rome – Vae Victis Review
Branco writes "Paradox Interactive has made its name in the gaming industry with the Europa Universalis series by promoting a gameplay that is not accessible to everyone, but offers a high level of realism and complexity. Adressed to those who like taking the ruling of an empire seriously, with all the aspects of economy, politics and military control thatcome with it. In EU: Rome there is no actual storyline , aside from the historical truth, as the player can choose any tribe or empire of the timeframe and shape its destiny as he sees fit, even if doing so will deviate from the course of history.
The game is turn-based, but the play / pause function gives the impression of real-time. Thus, a turn can mean one or more days, depending on how quickly you want to run events. And since the game ends after almost 300 years, would may want to accelerate things every now and then."
