Video Game Reviews of Shadow of Rome
Customer Review: a Massive Mace and Two Broken Arms
Summary: 3 Stars
This game is worth the 12 dollars I paid for it. Someone mentioned in an earlier review that the targeting system for the character is off. I agree. It is difficult to target grounded enemies and slow to move about in this game. Having said that, I like the brutality and the different weapons in the game. The targeting system doesn't really allow you to attack specific body parts so the game just gives you different outcomes when using different weapons at different attack angles. You can sever an ememy's arm, pick it up, and whale on him with it. Fun stuff! The cut-scenes are cool but can not be passed.
Description of Shadow of Rome
Shadow of Rome takes players back to the era of Caesar, when Rome ruled Europe and North Africa. It was a perilous time when false accusations, daggers in the back and duels to the death were the rule. In 48 B.C. Julius Caesar was murdered, and his advisor Uesnius was accused of the act. Agrippa, the son of Uesinus, will ask for the aid of a female warrior named Octavia, to restore his family's honor and uncover the truth.
