Ace your exam and study with Great Invasions
What better way to study for your History finals than to actually live through all those hundreds of years? Yeah, we know that some people like reading history books at leisure as if they were Reader’s Digests. But while that will please only a handful of people and their moms, a greater chunk of students would rather play a video game involving 700 years involving the Dark Age of Europe.
With a team of academic historians, Strategy First built their latest real-time strategy game Great Invasions and released it just last week. For those who still haven’t gotten the game, we’re going to give you a glimpse into the ancient world through screenshots and a refresher course on all of the game’s features.
Knowing that it’s an RTS, this game will have you commanding armies in Europe’s epic conquest for more land and subjects. It’s a historically accurate recreation of 150 events and over 3,700 key figures based on historical fact. See? This is like your perfect Cliff Notes for the History exam!
