Chariots of War

Chariots of War is a video game in the genre of global strategy, which takes place in the period of antiquity and tells about the era of the development of civilizations in the Middle East.

Review

A gamer can develop his own civilization for several hundred years and is obliged to achieve certain goals in the campaign, which he chooses before it starts. One way or another, it is possible to achieve the goal only by military means, and therefore such mechanics as diplomacy and economics are not so developed.

Despite the fact that the gameplay is mostly tied to conquests, the game lacks the ability to personally control troops on the battlefield – they fight automatically, and the gamer only gets a chance to look at the course of events.

Gameplay

Among the key gameplay features of the strategic video game Chariots of War , it is necessary to highlight:

1. A huge number of playable factions (58 in total), including Babylon, Egypt, Assyria, Nubia, Judea and others.
2. The ability to build cities and buildings in them – economic, cultural, military, defensive in nature.
3. The need to extract 9 basic resources, including iron, copper, stone, gold, food and others – all of them are necessary for the construction and maintenance of the army.
4. The actions take place in a step-by-step format.
5. From time to time you will have to deal with random events – natural disasters, including a volcanic eruption, earthquake, drought, locusts – this can greatly undermine the power of the faction.
