Total War: Rome Remastered is a top quality remaster of what remains an engaging strategy game. While I can’t directly compare from experience, the modernization of many of its gameplay aspects, the introduction of a host of new playable factions, and the strength of the existing systems allow it to stand alongside more recent editions of the franchise without any trouble. If you haven’t experienced Rome: Total War before, I recommend playing this remaster.- CGMagazine

One Step From Eden clearly wants remind players of the long forgotten Mega Man Battle Network games, but it is absolutely more than some petty imitation. This is a thoughtful and strategic deck-building action game that is looking to make you scream in frustration and come back for more.- CGMagazine
