Transcription
Premise and gameplay
The game is set in 5th Century BCE Greece, during a war between Xerxes and the Persian Empire.[2] Xerxes and his Persian Empire have set out to conquer Greece, leaving the lands of Hellas in a state of devastation.
In order to succeed in the game, players must take control of ancient warriors, master the weaponry of the era, and grow their resources gained through fighting other players.
Each player becomes Archon of his or her city, and must build their city from scratch. Players need to protect their city-state with the help of King Leonidas and the Spartan army using a combination of diplomacy, strategy and war.[2]
Music
The game features a fully scored soundtrack and sound composed and produced by BAFTA-winning composer Jesper Kyd.[3] The track “Hellas” from the game is included on his 2015 album, Five Worlds of Plarium.[4]
Critical reception
Sparta: War of Empires has received generally positive reviews, with Gamespresso editor-in-chief Alana Fearnall writing that "if the developers can support a large community base over time, Sparta: War of Empires is worth playing".[7] Giovanni Damiano of Gamerbrain praises the game as "engaging, fun and exciting"[8] but the game has been criticized for being costly for in game purchases.
