Academy Games is
currently in Kickstarter with a new version of a game called Mare Nostrum; a
game of building empires, defending territories, building alliances and managing
lots of resources.
The company has had massive successes in the past with games like Fief – France 1429,
1775 Rebellion, Freedon – The Underground Railroad and the Conflict
of Heroes series and now they’re poised to repeat the feat with this
project.
And I am not surprised. It looks amazing and Academy Games has forged a
reputation for quality both of gameplay and production that people have come to
trust.
But, as usual, a new game is also a new risk both for consumers and producers
and one can never find enough information before buying to help make the right
decision. Which is why I got together with Uwe to ask him a bunch of questions
about the game and the project.
Hope you enjoy the show and take a look at the Mare Nostrum Kickstarter project.
