    I was looking for a game that plays in the classical era and did not know anything about Hegemony 3. Neither have I ever played the first or second installment. I went ahead and bought the game anyway. I am not disappointed. While it may lack the polish of a AAA title such as the total war series, this game is just plain addicting. Whenever I'm not playing, I plan my next steps. AndI was looking for a game that plays in the classical era and did not know anything about Hegemony 3.

And whenever I load up steam and tell myself "play something else for a change" instead I always turn back to Hegemony 3.
    If you like strategy games, if you like to manage empires and if you agree that you don't need turns to play a grand strategy game, get it, especially if you like classical rome.    … Expand

    Very atmospheric and nicely implemented strategy game with period-appropriate art and music. I like how it combines grand strategy and real-time strategy/tactics in one unified approach in it's unique take on the strategy genre.

    A very good hard core strategy game.
    -0.5 because it doesn't come with the graphics of a Total War Rome 2.
    -0.5 because it doesn't come with the multiple mechanical systems of a Imperator Rome or Fields of Glory Empires. If you can do without that or can wait for Longbow to add stuff via updates and DLC (which they will ultimately, you know "the heart is where the money is"...), then this    A very good hard core strategy game.

    If you can do without that or can wait for Longbow to add stuff via updates and DLC (which they will ultimately, you know "the heart is where the money is"...), then this game may be for you. But be warned, the start is challenging! You'll probably need to watch a few tutorials, before you get it, since this is not an easy recreational map painting game. Going into this game, trying to play it like Total War will ensue in failure.    … Expand

    Addictive, unique , engaging and fun to mod too. Love it. Wish Longbow put out more DLC and spent a bit more time polishing this rough diamond. Should be more popular than Total War and Imperitor Rome IMHO.

    I wanted to like Hegemony III but it was just too frustrating. The combat works exactly as I like it to with lots of options, and I love the diplomacy aspects, but there’s just too much here that sapped my enjoyment.
