Path of Rome

Path of Rome

Retaliation is a videogame series based on an original boardgame, designed to offer challenging tactical and strategic reasoning in a fast, easy and funny format.

The mission of Retaliation is to make the spirit of wargaming available to everyone, casual gamers and seasoned strategists alike.
