Battle of Zama Reviews

I like it, need more battles! I played the Romans and got beat, no way! Lots of fun. Worth every penny for me. Good job!!!

I first saw this game a couple of weeks ago and I put it on my wish list to buy. I then promptly forgot about it but then it was on sale at 50% off so I decided to buy it at once. I'm glad I did because although it is a simple war game at first glance it has that one more turn factor to see if you can beat the other side. It is really a board war game with square counters just like the old Avalon Hill and SPI games of old. I really have enjoyed this and I cant understand how so few people have got this. The AI is capable and victory is hard to get. I played the Romans at first next time I'm gonna take the Carthaginians. This system could also apply to other battles and Id love to see that happen. The only criticism I have is that if you press the right mouse button it ends the current phase you are in thus resulting in you not firing during the missile phase or melee phase. I'm not sure if this is a bug or intentional. Anyway I heartily recommend this great little game as it will give you quite a few hours of turn based war gaming in the ancient era. Kudos to the dev who is bringing this rather niche product to Steam. So buy it and hopefully he will create other games based on different battles from history. P.S I would not be disappointed if I paid full price for this game as I believe it is good value for money. I just forgot to purchase it sooner. Thanks for reading this.
