Spartan

Spartan

Release Date: 27 JUN 2005

Spartan is an Empire building turn based strategy game, where the focus is on building an empire through diplomacy, trade, research, and war, but less focus on the battles than you would find in a real-time strategy game. It is designed for people who are interested in the period and those strategy gamers who prefer to have time to think about their decisions. Can you unite Greece in time to defy the Great King and his mighty Persian Empire?
