Total War games have always been known to accurately represent the artwork of the time period. Out of respect to the other Total War titles, I’m placing it a bit lower here… but it could easily take the second or third spot to be honest. The only reason why Troy isn’t ranked higher on my list is that this game is a Saga title, and not a complete Total War game.īecause I think that this thing is an absolute masterpiece. I’d recommend you pick this one up if you come across it selling online at a discounted price. I just wish that the campaign was a bit better, but the title itself is truly fun to play. The battles are super cool and the units truly take you back to one of the darkest periods in the history of Britain. Speaking of battles, if you’re one of those Total War players that tends to stay away from Campaign gameplay and you only like to play the actual historical battles (or online battles, for that matter), then Thrones is a game that you might actually enjoy more than the average player. The campaign gameplay of Thrones doesn’t truly feel great.īut the extremely-detailed map makes this game’s vibe something that I really dig.Įven though it does fall short on expectations, the title is wonderful and the battles are fantastic. Thrones of Britannia takes you back to the time where Britain was being raided and colonized by Vikings, and lets you take the role of any civilization that you want in your quest to conquer the British Isles, and eventually establish a solid dominion on them. The game does leave a lot to be desired in the campaign, but I think that the artwork and the units of this title make it worth picking it up if you happen to find it at a discounted price. But I do not necessarily share that view. I know that many people thought that Thrones of Britannia was a rather underwhelming game.
