About the Game

BECOME A LEGEND.

General Caius "Coriolanus" Martius is one of Rome's most feared warriors. So, you know, as this is a war story, that's gonna have a happy ending. As a war story in Shakespeare Times(tm), it will 100% have a happier ending than any other happy ending.

Yes, that's sarcasm.

Enemies are around every corner. Old vendettas lurk in every shadow. War is never over. Navigate Caius through this poorly-drawn (boy, that joke is really overused by now) visual novel of battle, betrayal, and choices that you have to make every so often that may or may not throw the story in a new direction. A direction that Shakespeare never intended. Scary, right? Total Death of the Author right here.

Navigate a weird lil' adventure game of war and more war, and sometimes politics. The politics of - wait for it:

Modern Warfare.

  • As Caius, the choices you make in how exactly to respond to certain situations may open up other paths down the road

This is totally not a parody or a satire of anything.

50% of all sales go towards the Wounded Warrior Project and Feast of Crispian.
