Expeditions: Rome is a tactical RPG published by THQ Nordic where you will have to discover the truth behind a family tragedy while shaping the future of the Roman Republic. And it is currently 80% off on Steam.

Released on January 20, 2022, Expeditions: Rome takes place in Ancient Rome during the final days of the Republic. Developed by Logic Artists, this game puts you in the shoes of a young Legatus who leaves Rome after a family tragedy. Thus, you'll have to lead military campaigns in Gaul, North Africa, and Greece while trying to uncover the truth.

You can customize your character by assigning various skills. You’ll have to lead a Roman legion through three military campaigns, each corresponding to a different act. But to emerge victorious, it will be crucial to recruit legionaries, upgrade your war camp, make the most of every resource, and defend your territories against enemy attacks. Five companions are also available, and they can help you on your missions.

You'll face your enemies in tactical turn-based battles. However, each weapon can affect your chances of success, so you'll need to be strategic.
