Hail Caesar! CDV and Enlight
to Co-publish Glory of the Roman
Empire
March 7, 2006 – CDV
Software Entertainment USA has signed an agreement with Enlight Software to
co-publish the empire-building title, Glory of the Roman Empire. The
game, in development for PC by Haemimont Games, is scheduled to ship to North
American retail outlets in June.
Glory of the Roman Empire is an
empire-building simulation set during the height of the glorious Roman Empire.
In the game, the player assumes the roles of city planner, governor and military
leader. Successful players will need planning skills, economic savvy and --
should those fail -- military might. Glory of the Roman Empire will
challenge gamers to grow a small village into a thriving community through trade
with neighbors, while also expanding and defending its borders through more
militaristic means. Players will need to focus on the physical and emotional
health of the citizenry, as villagers age and mature under strong leadership,
contributing to the development of more advanced societies and larger cities.
More than 30 missions based in 11 historically inspired towns will immerse
players in the historical aspects of the Roman Empire.
